Q

What is internal energy

A

Internal energy is energy stored in the system by the particles
Internal energy is the total kinetic energy and potential energy of all the particles that make up a system

Q
Pressure = 1.6 x 10 ^5 
Volume = 9cm
Calculate the volume of the gas when the pressure was 1.8 x 10 ^5
Temperature is constant
Give answer + equation
A

Gases: pressure x volume = constant

  1. 6 x 105 x 9.0 (1.44 x 106)
  2. 44 x 106 1.8 x 105 x V

or

V = 1.44 x 106 1.8 x 105

V = 8.0 (cm³)

Q

The internal energy of the air increases as the tire is inflated. (2 marks) why?

A

Work is done on air

So the temperature of the air increases/ The kinetic energy of the particles increases
