What is the Principle of Entropy Increase?

Engineering
1 answer:
Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer and Explanation:

The increase in entropy principle is defined as the process in which the total change in entropy of system with its adiabatic surroundings is always positive or equal to zero. The increase in entropy mostly takes place when a solid becomes liquid because randomness is increases when solid becomes liquid so entropy is also increases.

example of increase of entropy is when solid burns and become ash, ice melting

How can any student outside apply for studying engineering at Cambridge University​
telo118 [61]
Admission to the Engineering course at Cambridge is highly competitive, both in terms of the numbers and quality of applicants. In considering applicants, Colleges look for evidence both of academic ability and of motivation towards Engineering. There are no absolute standards required of A Level achievement, but it should be noted that the average entrant to the Department has three A* grades. You need to get top marks in Maths and Physics.All Colleges strongly prefer applicants for Engineering to be taking a third subject that is relevant to Engineering.
Hope that helps and good luck if you are applying. Can you please mark this as brainliest and press the thank you button and if you have any further questions please let me know!!

The basic barometer can be used to measure the height of a building. If the barometric readings at the top and at the bottom of
bixtya [17]

Answer:

h = 287.1 m

Explanation:

the density of mercury \rho =13570 kg/m3

the atmospheric pressure at the top of the building is

p_t = \rho gh  = 13570*908*0.73 = 97.08 kPa

the atmospheric pressure at bottom

p_b = \rho gh  = 13570*908*0.75 = 100.4 kPa

\frac{w_{air}}{A} =p_b -p_t

we have also

(\rho gh)_{air} = p_b - p_t

1.18*9.81*h = (100.4 -97.08)*10^3

h = 287.1 m

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

a) 70.29 %

b) 37%

Explanation:

percent reduction can be found from:

PR = 100*(π(do/2)^2-π(df/2)^2)/π(do/2)^2

     = 100*(π(11.34/2)^2-π(6.21/2)^2)/π(11.34/2)^2

     =70.29 %

percent elongation can be found from:

EL =L_f - Lo/Lo*100

    = (73.17 -53.3/53.3)*100

    = 37%
