Answer:

374.39 J/K

Explanation:

Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of disorder or randomness of a substance.

The S.I unit of entropy is J/K

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

Where ΔS = entropy change, ΔH = Heat change, T = temperature.

ΔH = cm................................... Equation 2

Where,

c = specific latent heat of fusion of water = 333000 J/kg, m = mass of ice = 0.3071 kg.

Substitute into equation 2

ΔH = 333000×0.3071

ΔH = 102264.3 J.

Also, T = 273.15 K

Substitute into equation 1

ΔS = 102264.3/273.15

ΔS = 374.39 J/K

Thus, The change in entropy = 374.39 J/K

A projectile is launched on earth at an angle θ, relative to horizontal direction. At half of its maximum height the speed of th

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

the angle is about 67.79 degrees

Explanation:

We know that at its maximum height, the vertical component of the projectile's launching (initial) velocity (Vyi) is zero, so at that point it total velocity equals the horizontal component of the initial velocity (Vxi = 0.5 m/s)

We also know that the maximum height of the projectile is given by the square of its initial vertical component of the velocity (Vyi) divided by 2g, therefore half of such distance is :

$half\,\,max-height = \frac{v_{yi}^2}{4\,g}$

we can use this information to find the y component of the velocity at that height via the formula:

$v_{yf}^2-v_{yi}^2=-2\,g\,\Delta y\\\\v_{yf}^2-v_{yi}^2=-2\,g\,(\frac{v_{yi}^2}{4\,g} )\\v_{yf}^2=v_{yi}^2-\frac{v_{yi}^2}{2} \\v_{yf}^2=\frac{v_{yi}^2}{2}$

Now we use the information that tells us the speed of the projectile at this height to be 1 m/s. That should be the result of the vector addition of the vertical and horizontal components:

$1=\sqrt{v_{yf}^2+0.5^2} \\1=\sqrt{\frac{v_{yi}^2}{2} +0.5^2}\\1^2=\frac{v_{yi}^2}{2} +0.5^2}\\1-0.5^2=\frac{v_{yi}^2}{2} \\2(1-0.5^2)=v_{yi}^2\\1.5 = v_{yi}^2\\v_{yi}=\sqrt{1.5} \\$

Now we can use the arc-tangent to calculate the launching angle, since we know the two initial component of the velocity vector:

$tan(\theta)=\frac{v_{yi}}{v_{xi}} =\frac{\sqrt{1.5} }{0.5} \\\theta= arctan(\frac{\sqrt{1.5} }{0.5})=67.79^o$
