If \(150 \mathrm{~J}\) of heat is added to a system and the work done by the system is \(110 \mathrm{~J}\), then change in internal energy will be

  1. A 150 J
  2. B 110 J
  3. C 260 J
  4. D 40 J
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 40 J

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to the first law of thermodynamics, the change in internal energy \(\Delta U\) is given by the equation: \(\Delta U = Q - W\) where \(Q\) is the heat added to the system and \(W\) is the work done by the system. Given values are \(Q = 150 \text{ J}\) and…
