Endless movement between hot and cold will eventually mean the end of the universe. This law is about inefficiency, degeneration and decay. <u>The second law can be expressed in several ways, the simplest being that heat will naturally flow from a hotter to a colder body. At its heart is a property of thermodynamic systems called entropy.</u> Entropy basically means an increase in randomness. Hope this helps mate.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:2.55 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of ride=5 m

radius(r)=2.5 m

Static friction coefficient range=0.60-1

Here Frictional force will balance weight

And limiting  frictional force is provided by Centripetal force

f=\mu N=\mu m\omega ^2\cdot r

weight of object=mg

Equating two

f=mg

\mu m\omega ^2\cdot r=mg

\omega ^2=\frac{g}{\mu r}

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{g}{\mu r}}

\omega =2.55 rad/sec

What net force is needed to increase the velocity of a 5 kg object by 3 m/s over the course of 2.5 seconds?
mixer [17]

Hi there!

Recall Newton's Second Law:

\large\boxed{\Sigma F = ma}

∑F = net force (N)

m = mass (kg)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

We must begin by solving for the acceleration using the following:

a = Δv/t

In this instance:

Δv = 3 m/s

t = 2.5 sec

a = 3/2.5 = 1.2 m/s²

Now, plug this value along with the mass into the equation for net force:

\Sigma F = 5(1.2) = \boxed{6 N}}

We can understand how pressure in water depends on depth by considering a stack of bricks. The pressure below the bottom brick i
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The pressure at any point in a column of gas is an exponential function

Explanation:

In the case of water due to the hydrostatic paradox, a liquid of any quantity can support any weight it is subjected to, as such the pressure at a point in a liquid is directly proportional to the depth. Analogous to stack of bricks

P = ρ×g×h

For gases we have that gas density depends on the gas pressure and  pressure depends on  gas density

This is as a result of the comprehensibility of gases in the atmosphere which is analogous to compressible bricks. A gas quickly spreads out to occupy a containing volume as such when subject to a force they are compressed to occupy a lesser volume.

However as the elevation increases it results in a lesser column of fluid exerting a force at that point hence reducing the pressure at that point.

We have for gases

P_{h} = P_0e^{-\frac{mgh}{kT} }

where

P_h = Pressure at height h

P₀ = Pressure at reference point

m = unit mass of air molecule

g = Acceleration due to gravity

h = Height from the reference point

k = Boltzmann constant

T = Temperature in Kelvin

The pressure at any point in a column of gas is an exponential function
