Question
Can a system be heated and its temperature remains constant?
✓
Answer
If the system does work aganist the surrounding so that it compensates for the heat supplied, the tempreature can remain constant.
It is given that $\Delta\text{T}=0\Rightarrow\Delta\text{U=0}$
$\therefore\Delta\text{Q}=\Delta\text{U}+\Delta\text{W}$
$\Rightarrow\Delta\text{Q}=\Delta\text{W}$ so heat supplied to the system is utilized in expansion system is isothermal.

Answer the following:
If you compare the gravitational force on the earth due to the sun to that due to the moon, you would find that the Sun’s pull is greater than the moon’s pull. (you can check this yourself using the data available in the succeeding exercises). However, the tidal effect of the moon’s pull is greater than the tidal effect of sun. Why?
