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.

In a nuclear fusion reaction two 2H atoms are combined to produce one 4He.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a)= 0.025602u

b) = 23.848MeV

c) N = 1.546 × 10¹³

Explanation:

The reaction is

²₁H + ²₁H ⇄ ⁴₂H + Q

a) The mass difference is

Δm = 2m(²₁H) - m (⁴₂H)

= 2(2.014102u) - 4.002602u

= 0.025602u

b) Use the Einstein mass energy relation ship

The enegy release is the mass difference times 931.5MeV/U

E = (0.025602) (931.5)

= 23.848MeV

the number of reaction need per seconds is

N = Q/E

= 59W/ 23.848MeV

$= \frac{59}{(23.848 \times 10^6 )(1.6 \times 10^1^9) } \\\\= 1.546 \times 10^1^3$

N = 1.546 × 10¹³

The maximum tension that a 0.80 m string can tolerate is 15 N. A 0.35-kg ball attached to this string is being whirled in a vert

zimovet [89]

Answer:

v=5.86 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the string, l = 0.8 m

Maximum tension tolerated by the string, F = 15 N

Mass of the ball, m = 0.35 kg

We need to find the maximum speed the ball can have at the top of the circle. The ball is moving under the action of the centripetal force. The length of the string will be the radius of the circular path. The centripetal force is given by the relation as follows :

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$
