A measure of the disoder of a system is called ____

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: Entropy is basically a thermodynamic quantity that tells the randomness of a system or as said in the question tells us a measure of the disorder of the system. The second law of thermodynamics states that a closed system has entropy which may remain constant

An object is dropped from a height of 75.0 m above ground level. (a) Determine the distance traveled during the first second. (b

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a)Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.

b)Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s

c)Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion

S = ut + 0.5at²

Here u = 0, and a = g

S = 0.5gt²

Distance traveled during the first second ( t =1 )

S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 1² = 4.905 m

Distance traveled during the first second = 4.905 m.

b) We have equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as

Here u = 0, s= 75 m and a = g

v² = 0² + 2 x g x 75 = 150 x 9.81

v = 38.36 m/s

Final velocity at which the object hits the ground = 38.36 m/s

c) We have S = 0.5gt²

75 = 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

t = 3.91 s

We need to find distance traveled last second

That is

S = 0.5 x 9.81 x 3.91² - 0.5 x 9.81 x 2.91² = 33.45 m

Distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground = 33.45 m

Give reason for the following:

Zigmanuir [339]

a) An inflated balloon was pressed against a wall after it has been rubbed with a piece of synthetic cloth. It was found that the balloon sticks to the wall. This is because a positive and negative electric charge is produced, therefore the balloon sticks to the wall.

b) When an object is thrown up, it comes back to ground because of gravitational attraction force of earth.

c) Mountaineers suffer nose bleeding at higher altitudes because the oxygen level decreases with increase in altitude, which the body cannot adjust.

d) Foundations of high rise buildings are kept wide because more is the area of contact, less is the pressure efforts. So, foundations are wide so as to decrease the possibility of the building from falling down.

e) Deep sea divers or high altitude fliers wear special suits so as prevent their body from being crushed by the water pressure. Since water pressure is maximum at deep seas and oceans, therefore, more is the risk of being injured.

f) Walls of a dam are thickened near the base so that the dam can handle the kinetic energy pressure and prevent itself from breaking down, which if not, can lead to flooding.
