Also confused on this can someone please help??!

Which of the following processes are spontaneous? Check all that apply.

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

(1) A hot drink cooling to room temperature.

(2) The combustion of natural gas.

Explanation:

The spontaneous process is the process in which there is a release of energy and moves towards lower energy and a more thermodynamically stable energy state. All the natural processes are spontaneous.

There are two processes which are spontaneous in the given question are:

(1) A hot drink cooling to room temperature: In this, there is a decrease in energy and also it is a natural process and we know that all the natural processes are spontaneous.

(2) The combustion of natural gas: The fire is an example of an exothermic reaction. The combustion is a combination of a decrease in energy and an increase in entropy. So, this process occurs spontaneously.

The center of the Hubble space telescope is 6940 km from Earth’s center. If the gravitational force between Earth and the telesc

Law Incorporation [45]

The gravitational force between two objects is given by:
$F=G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is the separation between the two objects

The distance of the telescope from the Earth's center is $r=6940 km=6.94 \cdot 10^6 m$ , the gravitational force is $F=9.21 \cdot 10^4 N$ and the mass of the Earth is $m_1=5.98 \cdot 10^{24} kg$ , therefore we can rearrange the previous equation to find m2, the mass of the telescope:
$m_2 = \frac{Fr^2}{Gm_1}= \frac{(9.21 \cdot 10^4 N)(6.94\cdot 10^6)^2}{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})} =11121 kg$

yvonne van gennip of the netherlands ice skated 10.0 km with an average speed of 10.8 m/s. suppose vang ennip crosses the finish

Sophie [7]

By conservation of momentum, we will find that the mass is 4.97 kg.

So in the original system, we have two objects, the bouquet of flowers of mass M that is not moving and Yvonne, which has a mass of 63 kg and a speed of 10.8 m/s.

Then the total momentum of this system is:

P = (63kg)*(10.8m/s) + M*(0 m/s) = 680.4 kg*m/s.

Remember the conservation of momentum, thus, the final momentum must be equal to the above one.

In the final situation, Yvonne and the bouquet move together with a speed of 10.01 m/s,

Then the final momentum is:

P' = (63kg + M)*(10.01 m/s)

And that must be equal to the initial momentum, then we have the equation:

(63kg + M)*(10.01 m/s) = 680.4 kg*m/s.

630.63kg*m/s + M*10.01 m/s = 680.4 kg*m/s.

M*10.01 m/s = 680.4 kg*m/s - 630.63kg*m/s = 49.77 kg*m/s

M = (49.77 kg*m/s)/(10.01 m/s) = 4.97 kg

So the mass of the bouquet is 4.97 kg
