You have a reservoir held at a constant temperature of –30°C. You add 400 J of heat to the reservoir. If you have another reserv
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

449.38 J

Explanation:

ΔS = ΔQ/T

Where ΔS = entropy change

Q = quantity of heat

T = temperature

First reservoir :

T = –30°C = - 30 + 273 = 243K

Q = 400 J

Second reservoir :

T = 0°C = 273K

Q =?

To have same increase in entropy for both reservoirs :

Q/T of first reservoir = Q/T of second reservoir

400/243 = Q/273

243 * Q = 400 * 273

Q = (400 * 273) / 243

Q = 109,200 / 243

Q = 449.38271

Q = 449.38 J

How many neutrons does element x have if it’s atomic number is 40 and it’s mass number is 82?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The atomic number gives you the number of protons element x has. Since the mass of protons and neutrons are almost similar(around 1 amu), the mass number can be thought of as the sum of protons and neutrons. so if element x whose atomic number is 40 has a mass number of 82, then we know that 42 of those must be neutrons.

An arrow is shot vertically upward at a rate of 250ft/s. Use the projectile formula h=−16t2+v0t to determine at what time(s), in
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The arrow is at a height of 500 feet at time t = 2.35 seconds.

Explanation:

It is given that,

An arrow is shot vertically upward at a rate of 250 ft/s, v₀ = 250 ft/s

The projectile formula is given by :

h=-16t^2+v_ot

We need to find the time(s), in seconds, the arrow is at a height of 500 ft. So,

-16t^2+250t=500

On solving the above quadratic equation, we get the value of t as, t = 2.35 seconds

So, the arrow is at a height of 500 feet at time t = 2.35 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.
