Answer:

1. Reduce the charge on second object by half or

2. Increase the distance between the two charges by a factor of 1.41 (√2).

Explanation:

Lets assume,

Charge on first object = Q

Charge on second object = q

Distance between them = r

Force between the two charges = F

According to Coulomb's law,

$F = k \frac{Qq}{r^{2}}$

where, k = Coulomb constant

New value of charge on first object = 2Q. Thus the new force(F') will be

$F' = k \frac{2Qq}{r^{2}}$

$F' = 2F$

So, to bring the value of force(F') to original value, there are two options:

1. Reduce the charge on second object by half or

2. Increase the distance between the two charges by a factor of 1.41 (√2).

a runner covers the last straight stretch of the race in 4 s. durning that time, he speeds up from 5 m/s to 9m/s what is the run

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The runner's acceleration was $1\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, the following relation applies:

$v_f=v_o+at$

Solving for a:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}$

The runner speeds up from vo=5 m/s to vf=9 m/s in t=4 seconds, thus:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{9-5}{4}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{4}{4}=1$

The runner's acceleration was $1\ m/s^2$

What change in entropy occurs when a 0.15 kg ice cube at -18 °C is transformed into steam at 120 °c 4.

Studentka2010 [4]

<u>Answer:</u> The change in entropy of the given process is 1324.8 J/K

<u>Explanation:</u>

The processes involved in the given problem are:

$1.)H_2O(s)(-18^oC,255K)\rightarrow H_2O(s)(0^oC,273K)\\2.)H_2O(s)(0^oC,273K)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(0^oC,273K)\\3.)H_2O(l)(0^oC,273K)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(100^oC,373K)\\4.)H_2O(l)(100^oC,373K)\rightarrow H_2O(g)(100^oC,373K)\\5.)H_2O(g)(100^oC,373K)\rightarrow H_2O(g)(120^oC,393K)$

Pressure is taken as constant.

To calculate the entropy change for same phase at different temperature, we use the equation:

$\Delta S=m\times C_{p,m}\times \ln (\frac{T_2}{T_1})$ .......(1)

where,

$\Delta S$ = Entropy change

$C_{p,m}$ = specific heat capacity of medium

m = mass of ice = 0.15 kg = 150 g (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

$T_2$ = final temperature

$T_1$ = initial temperature

To calculate the entropy change for different phase at same temperature, we use the equation:

$\Delta S=m\times \frac{\Delta H_{f,v}}{T}$ .......(2)

where,

$\Delta S$ = Entropy change

m = mass of ice

$\Delta H_{f,v}$ = enthalpy of fusion of vaporization

T = temperature of the system

Calculating the entropy change for each process:

<u>For process 1:</u>

We are given:

$m=150g\\C_{p,s}=2.06J/gK\\T_1=255K\\T_2=273K$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\Delta S_1=150g\times 2.06J/g.K\times \ln(\frac{273K}{255K})\\\\\Delta S_1=21.1J/K$

<u>For process 2:</u>

We are given:

$m=150g\\\Delta H_{fusion}=334.16J/g\\T=273K$

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$\Delta S_2=\frac{150g\times 334.16J/g}{273K}\\\\\Delta S_2=183.6J/K$

<u>For process 3:</u>

We are given:

$m=150g\\C_{p,l}=4.184J/gK\\T_1=273K\\T_2=373K$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\Delta S_3=150g\times 4.184J/g.K\times \ln(\frac{373K}{273K})\\\\\Delta S_3=195.9J/K$

<u>For process 4:</u>

We are given:

$m=150g\\\Delta H_{vaporization}=2259J/g\\T=373K$

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$\Delta S_2=\frac{150g\times 2259J/g}{373K}\\\\\Delta S_2=908.4J/K$

<u>For process 5:</u>

We are given:

$m=150g\\C_{p,g}=2.02J/gK\\T_1=373K\\T_2=393K$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\Delta S_5=150g\times 2.02J/g.K\times \ln(\frac{393K}{373K})\\\\\Delta S_5=15.8J/K$

Total entropy change for the process = $\Delta S_1+\Delta S_2+\Delta S_3+\Delta S_4+\Delta S_5$

Total entropy change for the process = $[21.1+183.6+195.9+908.4+15.8]J/K=1324.8J/K$

Hence, the change in entropy of the given process is 1324.8 J/K

the choices below each describe the appearance of an h-r diagram for a different star cluster. which cluster is most likely to b

Kitty [74]

The cluster that is most likely to be located in the halo of our galaxy is the diagram that shows main-sequence stars of every spectral type except O, along with a few giants and supergiants.

<h3>What are star clusters?</h3>

Star clusters are large collections of stars. Star clusters are classified into two types: Globular clusters are gravitationally bound groups of tens of thousands to millions of old stars.

Because of their location on the dusty spiral arms of spiral galaxies, they are sometimes referred to as galactic clusters. Stars in an open cluster share a common ancestor as they all formed from the same massive molecular cloud.

A typical spiral galaxy has a faint, extended stellar halo. A stellar halo is an essentially spherical population of stars and globular clusters thought to surround most disk galaxies and the cD class of elliptical galaxies. It should be noted that a halo is a spherical cloud of stars surrounding a galaxy. Astronomers have proposed that the Milky Way's halo is composed of two populations of stars.
