__________ is the measure of the amount of disordered in a system

kolezko [41]

Entropy is the measure of the amount of disordered in a system.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In 1850, Entropy introduction by the German physicist Rudolf Clausius refers a measurement of the system's thermal energy in unit temperature. It is not for useful work because the work originates from ordered molecular motions. And, this also measures the molecular disturbance or randomness of the system.

The concept behind this provides deep view into spontaneous changes in many everyday phenomena’s. The idea of entropy is a mathematical way of coding an intuitive idea whose processes are impossible, and not violate the basic principle of energy conservation.

When a honeybee flies through the air, it develops a charge of +20 pC . Part A How many electrons did it lose in the process of

Yuri [45]

Answer:

1.3 × 10⁸ e⁻

Explanation:

When a honeybee flies through the air, it develops a charge of +20 pC = + 20 × 10⁻¹² C. This is a consequence of losing electrons (negative charges). The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96468 C (Faraday's constant). The moles of electrons representing 20 pC are:

20 × 10⁻¹² C × (1 mol e⁻/ 96468 C) = 2.1 × 10⁻¹⁶ mol e⁻

1 mole of electrons has 6.02 × 10²³ electrons (Avogadro's number). The electrons is 2.1 × 10⁻¹⁶ moles of electrons are:

2.1 × 10⁻¹⁶ mol e⁻ × (6.02 × 10²³ e⁻/ 1 mol e⁻) = 1.3 × 10⁸ e⁻

Choose the scenario in which the sound frequency of the waves is higher.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

B) the sound source moves towards you at 100 m/sec

Explanation:

The Dopper Effect is a phenomenon that occur when there is relative motion between an observer and a source of a wave. When this situation occurs, there is an apparent shift in frequency of the wave, as observed by the observer.

The apparent frequency observed by the observer is given by

$f'=\frac{v\pm v_o}{v\pm v_s}f$

where

f is the original frequency of the wave

f' is the apparent frequency

v is the speed of the wave

$v_o$ is the velocity of the observer (positive if moving towards the source of the wave, negative otherwise)

$v_s$ is the velocity of the source (negative if moving towards from the observer, positive otherwise)

In this problem, we want to find the scenario in which the sound frequency is higher.

We see that in all 4 scenarios, the sound source is moving: this means we have to find the scenario in which the denominator of the equation is smaller.

First of all, we notice the sound source moves towards the observer, $v_s$ is negative, so the denominator is higher: this means that the correct option must be either A or B.

Also, we notice that since $v_s$ is negative, a value larger in magnitude will mean a smaller denominator: therefore, the correct answer will be

B) the sound source moves towards you at 100 m/sec

Since this situation will make the denominator of the formula the smallest possible.
