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 thermodynamic quantity representing the unavailability of a system's thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work, often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system.

A 5000kg car traveling at 40m/s crashes into a wall and comes to a complete stop in 10ms. What was the force on the wall?​
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

20,000,000 N

Explanation:

First find the acceleration:

a = Δv / Δt

a = (0 − 40 m/s) / 0.010 s

a = -4000 m/s²

Next use Newton's second law to find the force on the car:

F = ma

F = (5000 kg) (-4000 m/s²)

F = -20,000,000 N

According to Newton's third law, the force on the wall is equal and opposite the force on the car.

F = 20,000,000 N

2. A 15.0 N force is used to hold a mass on a string at an angle of 32° from the vertical, as in the
castortr0y [4]

Answer: 2.9kg

let mass be=m ; F=15N; Sin(theta)=32°;g =9.8kgm/s^2.

represent the mass. By resolving forces, we have:

F=mgSin(theta)

15N=mgSin(32°)

m=15N/g×Sin(32°)

m=15N/9.8m/s^2÷Sin(32°)

=2.888kg2.888

≈2.9kg

A cop claims you passed him at more than 60 mph ,27.8 meters per second, 200 meters from a red light that just turned green. you
postnew [5]

Sounds like the situation is modeled like so:

[Light] - - - - - - - - - - [You] => - - -

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [Cop] - - - - -

<= = = 200 m = = =>

where your velocity is 27.8 m/s to the right. So the question is asking, is it possible that your car, given that it accelerates at a maximum of 1/5 m/s^2, can reach a speed of 27.8 m/s from rest in the time it takes for it to cover 200 m.

The car's position at time t is

x=\dfrac12\left(1.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2

The time it takes to traverse 200 m is

200\,\mathrm m=\left(0.75\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\implies t\approx16.3\,\mathrm s

Your car's velocity at time t, starting from rest, is

v=\left(1.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t

so that after 16.3 s, your car is moving at a speed of

v=\left(1.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\left(16.3\,\mathrm s\right)\approx24.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

which is less than the speed the cop claims you were going, so the cop is not correct.

Two charged particles move in the same direction with respect to the same magnetic field. Particle 1 travels seven times faster
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

|q1|/|q2| = 1/7

Explanation:

Particle 1 experiences a force F1 due to the magnetic field, B:

F1 = |q1|*v1*B

Particle 2 experiences a force F2 due to the magnetic field, B:

F2 = |q2|*v2*B

We're given that:

v1 = 7v2

Also, the force experience by both particles are equal:

F1 = F2

=> |q1|*v1*B = |q2|*v2*B

|q1|/|q2| = v2/v1

=> |q1|/|q2| = v2/7v2

=> |q1|/|q2| = 1/7
