Deltas are complex depositional landforms that develop at the mouths of rivers. They are composed of sediment that is deposited as a river enters a standing body of water and loses forward momentum. Famous deltas include the Mississippi delta in Louisiana and the Nile delta in Egypt.

Cuanto cambia la entropía de 0.50 kg de vapor de mercurio [Lv: 2.7 x 10⁵ j/kg ] al calentarse en su punto de ebullición de 357°
lord [1]

Answer:

La entropía del vapor de mercurio cambia en 214.235 joules por Kelvin.

Explanation:

Por definición de entropía (S), medida en joules por Kelvin, tenemos la siguiente expresión:

dS = \frac{\delta Q}{T} (1)

Donde:

Q - Ganancia de calor, en joules.

T - Temperatura del sistema, en Kelvin.

Ampliamos (1) por la definición de calor latente:

dS = \frac{L_{v}}{T}\cdot dm (1b)

Donde:

m - Masa del sistema, en kilogramos.

L_{v} - Calor latente de vaporización, en joules

Puesto que no existe cambio en la temperatura durante el proceso de vaporización, transformamos la expresión diferencial en expresión de diferencia, es decir:

\Delta S = \frac{\Delta m \cdot L_{v}}{T}

Como vemos, el cambio de la entropía asociada al cambio de fase del mercurio es directamente proporcional a la masa del sistema. Si tenemos que m = 0.50\,kg,L_{v} = 2.7\times 10^{5}\,\frac{J}{kg} and T = 630.15\,K, entonces el cambio de entropía es:

\Delta S = \frac{(0.50\,kg)\cdot \left(2.7\times 10^{5}\,\frac{J}{kg} \right)}{630.15\,K}

\Delta S = 214.235 \,\frac{J}{K}

La entropía del vapor de mercurio cambia en 214.235 joules por Kelvin.

Equations to use: v= λ ∙ f v=d/t
Margarita [4]

b. 460.8 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between the speed of the wave along the string, the length of the string and the frequency of the note is

f=\frac{v}{2L}

where v is the speed of the wave, L is the length of the string and f is the frequency. Re-arranging the equation and substituting the data of the problem (L=0.90 m and f=256 Hz), we can find v:

v=2Lf=2(0.90 m)(256 Hz)=460.8 m/s

c. 18,000 m

Explanation:

The relationship between speed of the wave, distance travelled and time taken is

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

v = 6,000 m/s is the speed of the wave

d = ? is the distance travelled

t = 3 s is the time taken

Re-arranging the formula and substituting the numbers into it, we find:

d=vt=(6,000 m/s)(3 s)=18,000 m
