Answer: Entropy is the measure of the disorder of a system

Explanation:

Entropy is a thermodynamic quantity defined as a criterion to predict the evolution or transformation of thermodynamic systems. In addition, it is used to measure the degree of organization of a system.

In other words: Entropy is the measure of the disorder of a system and is a function of state. That is, it depends only on the state of the system.

However, in the case of an isolated system in an <u>irreversible process</u>, the value of entropy increases in the course of a process that occurs naturally. While in a <u>reversible process</u> the entropy of the isolated system remains constant.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

10.028%

Explanation:

$\theta$ = Angle between polarizer

The polarized light after passing through first polarizer

$I=\frac{I_0}{2}$

The polarized light after passing through second polarizer

$I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^231.8\\\Rightarrow I_2=0.36115I_0$

The polarized light after passing through third polarizer

$I_3=I_2cos^2(90-31.8)\\\Rightarrow I_3=0.36115I_0cos^2(90-31.8)\\\Rightarrow I_3=0.10028I_0$

$\frac{I_3}{I_0}\times 100=\frac{0.10028I_0}{I_0}\times 100\\ =10.028\ \%$

The percent of the light gets through this combination of filters is 10.028%

A 1kg dictionary is resting on a table that is 1.5m high. How much potential energy

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Potential energy = 14.7 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, m = 1kg

Height, h = 1.5m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

$P.E = mgh$

Where, P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

$P.E = mgh$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$P.E = 1*9.8*1.5$

P.E = 14.7 Joules.

An AC power source has an rms voltage of 120 V and operates at a frequency of 60.0 Hz. If a purely inductive circuit is made fro

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

(a) 17634.24 Ω

(b) 0.0068 A

Explanation:

(a)

The formula for inductive inductance is given as

X' = 2πFL................... Equation 1

Where X' = inductive reactance, F = frequency, L = inductance

Given: F = 60 Hz, L = 46.8 H, π = 3.14

Substitute into equation 1

X' = 2(3.14)(60)(46.8)

X' = 17634.24 Ω

(b)

From Ohm's law,

Vrms = X'Irms

Where Vrms = Rms Voltage, Irms = rms Current.

make Irms the subject of the equation

Irms = Vrms/X'...................... Equation 2

Given: Vrms = 120 V, X' = 17634.24 Ω

Substitute into equation 2

Irms = 120/17634.24

Irms = 0.0068 A
