You prepare tea with 0.250 kg of water at 85.0 ºC and let it cool down to room temperature (20.0 ºC) before drinking it. Essenti

ally, the cooling process is isothermal to the air in your kitchen. Calculate the entropy change of the air as the tea cools, assuming that all the heat lost by the water goes into the air

Answer:

232 J/K

Explanation:

The amount of heat gained by the air = the amount of heat lost by the tea.

q_air = -q_tea

q = -mCΔT

q = -(0.250 kg) (4184 J/kg/ºC) (20.0ºC − 85.0ºC)

q = 68,000 J

The change in entropy is:

dS = dQ/T

Since the room temperature is constant (isothermal):

ΔS = ΔQ/T

Plug in values (remember to use absolute temperature):

ΔS = (68,000 J) / (293 K)

ΔS = 232 J/K

How much force does it take to accelerate a 50.8 kg person at 3.50 m/s^2?
Vikki [24]

Apply Newton's second law to the person's motion:

F = ma

F = net force, m = mass, a = acceleration

Given values:

m = 50.8kg, a = 3.50m/s²

Plug in and solve for F:

F = 50.8(3.50)

F = 178N

On Friday, September 28, 2018, Palu, Indonesia, on the island of Sulawesi, experienced an earthquake that generated a tsunami. F
Naily [24]

Answer: Proximity to active volcanoes

Explanation:

When volcanoes erupt, they can generate tsunamis in the following ways:

-Parts of the volcano (some of them may be underwater) could collapse, generating a big displacement of water and resulting in a tsunami.

-The magma chamber could also collapse as it empties, also generating water displacement.

-If the volcanoes are near to the shore, debris resulting from the eruption could hit the water at fast speeds, producing big waves and eventually a tsunami.

In this case, the proximity of Palu city to active volcanoes, especially ones that are so close to the shore, increases the risk of a tsunami.

A dog has a mass of 20 kg. If the dog is pushed across the ice with a force of 40 N, what is its acceleration?
olasank [31]

Answer:

The acceleration is 2 m/s2.

Explanation:

We calculate the acceleration (a), with the data of mass (m) and force (F), through the formula:

F = m x a  ---> a= F/m

a = 40 N/20 kg                   <em>  1N= 1 kg x m/s2</em>

a= 40 kgx m/s2/ 20 kg

<em>a= 2 m/s2</em>

At what speed do a bicycle and its rider, with a combined mass of 100 kg, have the same momentum as a 1400 kg car traveling at 2
likoan [24]
100kg x bicycle speed = 1400 X 2

bicycle speed = 2800/ 100
bicycle speed = 28 m/s

Where coastal rock is softer, waves erode the land faster ​
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Headlands and bays are created where there are bands of hard and soft rock which meet the coastline at right angles. Softer rock is eroded more quickly and erodes backwards to form bays (which may have beaches). The harder rocks are more resistant to erosion and jut out into the sea to form exposed headlands
