Entropy is an extensive property of a thermodynamic system. It quantifies the number Ω of microscopic configurations (known as microstates) that are consistent with the macroscopic quantities that characterize the system (such as its volume, pressure and temperature).[1] Under the assumption that each microstate is equally probable, the entropy
S
S is the natural logarithm of the number of microstates, multiplied by the Boltzmann constant

A train has a length of 81.1 m and starts from rest with a constant acceleration at time t = 0 s. At this instant, a car just re

arlik [135]

Answer: a) vcar= 7 m/s ; b) a train= 0.65 m/s^2

Explanation: By using the kinematic equation for the car and the train we can determine the above values of the car velocity and the acceletarion of the train, respectively.

We have for the car

distance = v car* t, considering the length of train (81.1 m) travel by the car during the first 11.6 s

the v car = distance/time= 81.1 m/11.6s= 7 m/s

In order to calculate the acceleration we have to use the kinematic equation for the train from the rest

distance train = (a* t^2)/2

distance train : distance travel by the car at constant speed

so distance train= (vcar*36.35)m=421 m

the a traiin= (2* 421 m)/(36s)^2=0.65 m/s^2

garri49 [273]

1)
p = 2.4 * 10^5 Pa
T = 18° C + 273.15 = 291.15 k
r = 0.25 m => V = [4/3]π(r^3) = [4/3]π(0.25m)^3 = 0.06545 m^3 = 65.45 L

Use ideal gas equation: pV = nRT => n = pV / RT = [2.4*10^5 Pa * 0.06545 m^3] / [8.31 J/k*mol * 291.15k] = 6.492 mol

Avogadro number = 1 mol = 6.022 * 10^23 atoms

Number of atoms = 6.492 mol * 6.022 *10^23 atom/mol = 39.097 * 10^23 atoms = 3.91 * 10^24 atoms

2) Double atoms => double volume

V2 / V1 = r2 ^3 / r1/3

2 = r2 ^3 / r1 ^3 => r2 ^3 = 2* r1 ^3

r2 = [∛2]r1

The factor is ∛2
