Answer:

5 ft/s²

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity = 100 ft/s

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement = 1000 ft

a = Acceleration

From equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{0^2-100^2}{2\times 1000}\\\Rightarrow a=-5\ ft/s^2

1\ ft/s^2=0.3048\ m/s^2\\\Rightarrow 5\ ft/s^2=5\times 0.3048\ m/s^2=1.524\ m/s^2

The airplane's deceleration is 5 ft/s² or 1.524 m/s²

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A) Z = 0.577 C +112.931

Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z

B) C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C

C) K = C +273.15

K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K

Explanation:

For this case we want to create a function like this:

Z = a C + b

Where Z represent the degrees for the Z scale C the Celsius grades and  tha valus a and b parameters for the model.

The boiling point of nitrogen is -195,8 °C

The melting point of iron is 1538 °C

We know the following equivalences:

-195.8 °C = 0 °Z

1538 °C = 1000 °Z

Let's say that one point its (1538C, 1000 Z) and other one is (-195.8 C, 0Z)

So then we can calculate the slope for the linear model like this:

a = \frac{z_2 -z_1}{c_2 -c_1}= \frac{1000 Z- 0Z}{1538C -(-195.8 C)}=\frac{1000 Z}{1733.8 C}=0.577 \frac{Z}{C}

And now for the slope we can use one point let's use for example (-195.8C, 0Z), and we have this:

0 = 0.577 (-195.8) + b

And if we solve for b we got:

b = 0.577*195.8 =112.931 Z

So then our lineal model would be:

Z = 0.577 C +112.931

Part A

The boiling point of water is 100C so we just need to replace in the model and see what we got:

Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z

Part B

For this case we have Z =100 and we want to solve for C, so we can do this:

Z-112.931 = 0.577 C

C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C

Part C

For this case we know that K = C +273.15

And we can use the result from part B to solve for K like this:

K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K

Since the aluminum bar is not an isolated system, the second law of thermodynamics cannot be applied to the bar alone. Rather, i
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

ΔS total ≥ 0 (ΔS total = 0 if the process is carried out reversibly in the surroundings)

Explanation:

Assuming that the entropy change in the aluminium bar is due to heat exchange with the surroundings ( the lake) , then the entropy change of the aluminium bar is, according to the second law of thermodynamics, :

ΔS al ≥ ∫dQ/T

if the heat transfer is carried out reversibly

ΔS al =∫dQ/T  

in the surroundings

ΔS surr ≥ -∫dQ/T = -ΔS al → ΔS surr ≥ -ΔS al = - (-1238 J/K) = 1238 J/K

the total entropy change will be

ΔS total = ΔS al + ΔS surr

ΔS total ≥ ΔS al + (-ΔS al) =

ΔS total ≥ 0

the total entropy change will be ΔS total = 0 if the process is carried out reversibly in the surroundings

Describe briefly with used of practical knowledge the effect of the voltage stores across and current
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Answer in explanation

Explanation:

The path of flow of circuit is called electric circuit. In an electric circuit, resistances are connected in two different ways, which are:

1- Series Combination of Resistances

2- Parallel Combination of Resistances  

<u>Series combination of resistances </u>

In series combination resistors are connected end to end, and there is only one path for the flow of current.  

Characteristics Of Series Circuit:

1. In series circuit there is only one path for the flow of current.

2. Same amount of current flows through each resistor.

I = I₁ = I₂ = I₃ = In

3. Total voltage of the battery is equal to the sum of voltages across each resistor.

V = V₁ +V₂ + V₃ + ... + Vn

4. In series combination the combined resistance of the resistors can be obtained by adding the value of each resistor.

R  =  R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + … + Rn

<u>Parallel combination of resistances </u>

Resistances are set to be connected in parallel, when each of them is connected directly from the terminals of electric source.  

Characteristics Of Series Circuit:

1.  There are more than one path for the flow of current.

2. The value of potential difference remains constant on each resistor.

V = V₁ = V₂ = V₃ = Vn

3. Total current is equal to the sum of current passing through each resistor.

I = I₁ + I₂ + I₃ +...+ In

4. Reciprocal of equivalent resistance is equal to the sum of reciprocals of resistances connected in parallel.  

1/R   =  1/R₁  + 1/R₂  + 1/R₃  + … + 1/Rn  

The circuit diagrams are in attachment.
