Answer:

Reflection is the bouncing back off light rays when it hits a surface whilst refraction is the change in direction if light as it travels from one medium to another.They both need a medium or surface to be able to work

kolezko [41]

Answer: 34.6N


Explanation:


1) The friction force that acts on the skis as you move down the mountain follows the rule:


Friction force = friction kinetic coefficient × Normal force


2) The friction kinetic coeffcient for waxed wood skis on snow is reported in some literature as 0.10.


3) The normal force is given in the statement: 346 N


4) With that you calculate the friction force as:


Friction force = 0.1 × 346N = 34.6N

A 1.00-kg sample of steam at 100.0 °C condenses to water at 100.0 °C. What is the entropy change of the sample if the latent hea
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The entropy change of the sample of water =  6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Explanation:

Entropy: Entropy can be defined as the measure of the degree of disorder or randomness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.mol

Mathematically, entropy is expressed as

ΔS = ΔH/T....................... Equation 1

Where ΔH = heat absorbed or evolved, T = absolute temperature.

<em>Given:  If 1 mole of water = 0.0018 kg,</em>

<em>ΔH = latent heat × mass = 2.26 x 10⁶ × 1 = 2.26x 10⁶ J.</em>

<em>T = 100 °C = (100+273)  K = 373 K.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>ΔS =2.26x 10⁶/373</em>

ΔS = 6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Therefore the entropy change of the sample of water =  6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

arlik [135]

Answer:

1 million dollars once

Explanation:

Well, both would be nice. In total, you will get more from the million dollars because it takes over 2,739 years to get 1 million dollars worth of pennies.(if you get 1 a day that is)
