Answer:

D. Airflow confronting a mountain barrier, causing the air to rise

Explanation:

Orographic uplift occurs when air of lower altitude rises over a mountain. This phenomenon occurs due to the rising terrain. This generally raises the humidity to almost 100 percent which creates clouds and sometimes precipitation.

This phenomenon is observed at almost all the mountain ranges of the world.

A unit mass of an ideal gas at temperature T undergoes a reversible isothermal process from pressure P1 to pressure P2 while los

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Option B

Change in entropy of the process is $\Delta S= Rln(\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}})$

Explanation:

The entropy of a system is a measure of the degree of disorderliness of the system.

The entropy of a system moving from process 1 to 2 is given as

$\Delta S = \int\limits^2_1 {\frac{\delta q}{T}}$

recall from first law, $\delta q =du +Pdv$

hence we have, $\Delta S = \int\limits^2_1 {\frac{du +Pdv}{T}}$

since the process is isothermal, $du= 0$

this gives us $\Delta S = \int\limits^2_1 {\frac{Pdv}{T}}$

integrating within the limits of 1 and 2, will give us

$\Delta S = R ln (\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}})$

also from ideal gas laws,

$\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}=\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}$

hence we have $\Delta S = R ln (\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}})$

This makes the correct option B
