Answer:

The correct answer is option'B': Change in entropy

Explanation:

We know from the second law of thermodynamics for any spontaneous process the total entropy of the system and it's surroundings will increase.

Meaning that any unaided process will  move in a direction in which the entropy of the system will increase.It is because the system will always want to increase it's randomness

Jenise is buying a car for $7,020. The TAVT rate is 9.1%.
djyliett [7]

Answer:

$7,658.82

Explanation:

<u>Sales Tax Calculations:</u>

Sales Tax Amount = Net Price x (Sales Tax Percentage / 100)

Total Price = Net Price + Sales Tax Amount

Net Price: $ 7,020.00

+Sales Tax (9.1%): $ 638.82

Total Price: $ 7,658.82

Therefore, the amount of tax that Jenise has to pay on her car is $7,658.82

A surgical microscope weighing 200 lb is hung from a ceiling by four springs with stiffness 25 lb/ft. The ceiling has a vibratio
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

If there is no damping, the amount of transmitted vibration that the microscope experienced is   = 5.676*10^{-3} \ mm

Explanation:

The motion of the ceiling is y = Y sinωt

y = 0.05 sin (2 π × 2) t

y = 0.05 sin 4 π t

K = 25 lb/ft  × 4  sorings

K = 100 lb/ft

Amplitude of the microscope  \frac{X}{Y}= [\frac{1+2 \epsilon (\omega/ W_n)^2}{(1-(\frac{\omega}{W_n})^2)^2+(2 \epsilon  \frac{\omega}{W_n})^2}]

where;

\epsilon = 0

W_n = \sqrt { \frac{k}{m}}

= \sqrt { \frac{100*32.2}{200}}

= 4.0124

replacing them into the above equation and making X the subject of the formula:

X = Y * \frac{1}{\sqrt{(1-(\frac{\omega}{W_n})^2)^2})}}

X = 0.05 * \frac{1}{\sqrt{(1-(\frac{4 \pi}{4.0124})^2)^2})}}

X = 5.676*10^{-3} \ mm

Therefore; If there is no damping, the amount of transmitted vibration that the microscope experienced is   = 5.676*10^{-3} \ mm

A 1 530-kg automobile has a wheel base (the distance between the axles) of 2.70 m. The automobile's center of mass is on the cen
NeTakaya

Answer:

Force on front axle = 6392.85 N

Force on rear axle = 8616.45 N

Explanation:

As we know that the weight of the car is balanced by the normal force on the front wheel and rear wheels

Now we know that

F_1 + F_2 = W

F_1 + F_2 = (1530\times 9.81)

F_1 + F_2 = 15009.3 N

now we know that distance between the axis is 2.70 m and centre of mass is 1.15 m behind front axle

so we can write torque balance about its center of mass

F_1(1.15) = F_2(2.70 - 1.15)

F_1 = 1.35 F_2

now from above equation

F_2 + 1.35F_2 = 15009.3

now we have

F_2 = 6392.85 N

now the other force is given as

F_1 = 8616.45 N

A pipe of length 10.0 m increases in length by 1.5 cm when its temperature is increased by 90°F. What is its coefficient of line
azamat

The coefficient of linear expansion, given that the length of the pipe increased by 1.5 cm is 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F

<h3>How to determine the coefficient of linear expansion</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained

  • Original diameter (L₁) = 10 m
  • Change in length (∆L) = 1.5 cm = 1.5 / 100 = 0.015 m
  • Change in temperature (∆T) = 90 °F
  • Coefficient of linear expansion (α) =?

The coefficient of linear expansion can be obtained as illustrated below:

α = ∆L / L₁∆T

α = 0.015 / (10 × 90)

α = 0.015 / 900

α = 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F

Thus, we can conclude that the coefficient of linear expansion is 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F
