Answer:  A. play a single song by a single artist

Explanation: Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system.

A system that has more random distribution is considered to have more entropy and a system with ordered arrangement is considered to have less entropy.

Playing a single song by a single artist has least randomness , and lowest disorder and thus has lowest entropy.

Your neighbor is riding her bike around the block. When she slows down and turns a corner, what changes about her?.
Ann [662]

Answer:

nothing

Explanation:If you ride a bike around the block and return to the exact point where you started, your displacement is zero.

By definition, displacement involves changing an object from its original position. No matter how far or for how long a body moves, if it returns to the position it started from, it has not been displaced at all. This means that the body has zero displacements.

1.60 kg frictionless block is attached to an ideal spring with force constant 315 N/m . Initially the spring is neither stretche
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

(a). The amplitude of the motion is 0.926 m.

(b). The block’s maximum acceleration is 182.31 m/s².

(c). The maximum force the spring exerts on the block is 291.69 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block =1.60 kg

Force constant = 315 N/m

Speed = 13.0 m/s

(a). We need to calculate the amplitude of the motion

Using conservation of energy

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

A^2=\dfrac{mv^2}{k}

Put the value into the relation

A^2=\dfrac{1.60\times13.0^2}{315}

A=\sqrt{0.858}

A=0.926\ m

(b). We need to calculate the block’s maximum acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

a=A\omega^2

a=A\times\dfrac{k}{m}

Put the value into the formula

a=0.926\times\dfrac{315}{1.60}

a=182.31\ m/s^2

(c). We need to calculate the maximum force the spring exerts on the block

Using formula of force

F=ma

Put the value into the formula

F= 1.60\times182.31

F=291.69\ N

Hence, (a). The amplitude of the motion is 0.926 m.

(b). The block’s maximum acceleration is 182.31 m/s².

(c). The maximum force the spring exerts on the block is 291.69 N.

A 250 kg flatcar 25 m long is moving with a speed of 3.0 m/s along horizontal frictionless rails. A 61 kg worker starts walking
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

x=31.09m

Explanation:

p1=p2

The momentum of flatcar and the momentum of the worker so

The velocity of the worker is:

m_{f}*v_{f}=m_{w}*v_{w}\\\\v_{f}=\frac{m_{f}*v_{f}}{m_{w}}\\v_{f}=\frac{61kg*3.0\frac{m}{s}}{250kg}\\v_{f}=0.732\frac{m}{s}

The total motion has a total velocity and is

Vt=v_{w}+v_{f}\\Vt=0.732\frac{m}{s}+3.0\frac{m}{s}\\Vt=3.732\frac{m}{s}

The time the worker take walking is

t=\frac{x}{v_{w}}\\t=\frac{25m}{3\frac{m}{s}}=8.33s

Now the total time and the total velocity determinate the motion of tha flatcar how far has moved

x=t*Vt\\x=8.33s*3.732\frac{m}{s} \\x=31.09m

Explain how temperature changes affect the ice on a lake ?
KengaRu [80]
Well if it gets warmer the ice will weaken and if it gets hot enough will melt. Of course if the weather gets colder the ice will thicken.

Which of the following contributes to the phases of the Moon as seen from Earth?
balandron [24]

Answer: Varying amounts of the Moon's lit surface being visible from Earth.

Explanation:

Phases of the moon can be defined as the different shapes of the moon visible from the Earth. This happens because sun lits up the face of moon and due to different position of moon in the orbit around earth, varying portion of the lit surface of the moon is visible from Earth. Refer to the diagram below:
