In a heat engine if 1000 j of heat enters the system the piston does 500 j of work, what is the final internal energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 j? 1. write the equation 2.list out your known variables 3.plug the numbers into the equations 4.Solve 5.write your solution statement that includes initial energy and final

Respuesta :

Answer : The final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

Solution :

(1) The equation used is,

[tex]\Delta U=q+w\\\\U_{final}-U_{initial}=q+w[/tex]

where,

[tex]U_{final}[/tex] = final internal energy

[tex]U_{initial}[/tex] = initial internal energy

q = heat energy

w = work done

(2) The known variables are, q, w and [tex]U_{initial}[/tex]

initial internal energy = [tex]U_{initial}[/tex] = 2000 J

heat energy = q = 1000 J

work done = w = 500 J

(3) Now plug the numbers into the equation, we get

[tex]U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)[/tex]

(4) By solving the terms, we get

[tex]U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)[/tex]

[tex]U_{final}-(2000J)=1500J[/tex]

[tex]U_{final}=2000J+1500J[/tex]

[tex]U_{final}=3500J[/tex]

(5) Therefore, the final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J
