A unit mass of an ideal gas at temperature T undergoes a reversible isothermal process from pressure P1 to pressure P2 while los
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Option B

Change in entropy of the process is \Delta S= Rln(\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}})

Explanation:

The entropy of a system is a measure of the degree of disorderliness of the system.

The entropy of a system moving from process 1 to 2 is given as

\Delta S = \int\limits^2_1 {\frac{\delta q}{T}}

recall from first law, \delta q =du +Pdv

hence we have, \Delta S = \int\limits^2_1 {\frac{du +Pdv}{T}}

since the process is isothermal, du= 0

this gives us \Delta S = \int\limits^2_1 {\frac{Pdv}{T}}

integrating within the limits of 1 and 2, will give us

\Delta S = R ln (\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}})

also from ideal gas laws,

\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}=\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}

hence we have    \Delta S = R ln (\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}})

This makes the correct option B

Why must humans limit their exposure to X-rays and gamma rays?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets limits for exposure to x-rays and gamma rays in part because it recognizes that this form of radiation can cause cancer.

Find mass when kinetic energy is 1.6 J and velocity is 0.2 m/s
klio [65]

Answer:

4kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Kinetic energy  = 1.6J

Velocity  = 0.2m/s

Unknown:

Mass of the body = ?

Solution:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy due to the motion of the body.

It is mathematically expressed as;

  Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}  m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

          1.6  =  \frac{1}{2}  x 0.2 x v²  

          1.6  = 0.1v²

         v²   = 16

          v  = 4kg
