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

Answer:

h = height of the hotel room from the ground floor = 237.4m

Explanation:

Change in Potential Energy of tourist = ΔPE = PE2 – PE1 = mgh

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the ground floor

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the top (hotel room)

Given

PE1 = − 2.01 × 10⁵ J

PE2 = 0J

PE2 – PE1 = mgh

0 – (− 2.01 × 10⁵ J) = mgh

2.01 × 10⁵ J = 86.4×9.8×h

h = 2.01 × 10⁵/(86.4×9.8) = 237.4m

A 62.0-kg athlete leaps straight up into the air from a trampoline with an initial speed of 9.6 m/s. The goal of this problem is

pochemuha

Answer:

2856.96 J

$\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2+mgh_i=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2+mgh_f$

6.78822 m/s

Explanation:

$v_i$ = Initial velocity = 9.6 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height

The athlete only interacts with the gravitational potential energy. Air resistance is neglected.

At height y = 0

Kinetic energy

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 62\times 9.6^2\\\Rightarrow K=2856.96\ J$

At height y = 0 the potential energy is 0 as

$P=mgy\\\Rightarrow P=mg0=0$

At maximum height her velocity becomes 0 so the kinetic energy becomes zero.

As the the potential and kinetic energy are conserved

The general equation

$K_i+P_i=K_f+P_f\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2+mgh_i=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2+mgh_f$

Half of maximum height

$\\\Rightarrow mgh_i+\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2=mg\frac{h_i}{2}+\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow gh_i=g\frac{h_i}{2}+\frac{1}{2}v^2\\\Rightarrow g\frac{h_i}{2}=\frac{1}{2}v^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{gh}$

$h_i=\frac{v_i^2}{2g}$

$v=\sqrt{gh}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{g\times \frac{v_i^2}{2g}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{v_i^2}{2}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{9.6^2}{2}}\\\Rightarrow v=6.78822\ m/s$

The velocity of the athlete at half the maximum height is 6.78822 m/s
