aniked [119]

To develop this problem we will start from the definition of entropy as a function of total heat, temperature. This definition is mathematically described as

$S = \frac{Q}{T}$

Here,

Q = Total Heat

T = Temperature

The total change of entropy from a cold object to a hot object is given by the relationship,

$\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T_{cold}}-\frac{Q}{T_{hot}}$

From this relationship we can realize that the change in entropy by the second law of thermodynamics will be positive. Therefore the temperature in the hot body will be higher than that of the cold body, this implies that this term will be smaller than the first, and in other words it would imply that the magnitude of the entropy 'of the hot body' will always be less than the entropy 'cold body'

Change in entropy $\Delta S_{hot}$ is smaller than $\Delta S_{cold}$

Therefore the correct answer is C. Will always have a smaller magnitude than the change in entropy of the cold object

Calculate the change in length of a Pyrex glass dish (Coefficient of linear expansion for Pyrex is 3 * 10-6 / oC) that is 0.25 m

DIA [1.3K]

9* $10^{-5}$ m

Explanation:

Step 1:

We are given the initial length of the Pyrex glass dish at a particular temperature and need to calculate the change in the length when the temperature changes by 120° C. The coefficient of linear expansion of Pyrex is provided.

Step 2:

Change in length = Coefficient of linear expansion * Change in temperature * Initial length

Step 3:

Coefficient of linear expansion = 3* $10^{-6}$ /°C

Change in temperature = 120°C = 120 K

Initial length = 0.25 m

Step 4:

Change in length = 3* $10^{-6}$ * 120 * 0.25 = 9* $10^{-5}$ m

Will xenon react with nitrogen and why

Andreyy89

<span>No, xenon wont react with nitrogen.

This is because xenon is a noble gas and noble gases on</span>ly react with other elements under very unusual circumstances.<span>

I hope this has helped you.</span>

A circular loop of wire with a diameter of 0.626 m is rotated in a uniform electric field to a position where the electric flux

Mila [183]

Answer:

C) 2.44 × 106 N/C

Explanation:

The electric flux through a circular loop of wire is given by

$\Phi = EA cos \theta$

where

E is the electric field

A is the cross-sectional area

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the electric field and the normal to A

The flux is maximum when $\theta=0^{\circ}$ , so we are in this situation and therefore $cos \theta =1$ , so we can write

$\Phi = EA$

Here we have:

$\Phi = 7.50\cdot 10^5 N/m^2 C$ is the flux

d = 0.626 m is the diameter of the coil, so the radius is

r = 0.313 m

and so the area is

$A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.313 m)^2=0.308 m^2$

And so, we can find the magnitude of the electric field:

$E=\frac{\Phi}{A}=\frac{7.50\cdot 10^5 Nm^2/C}{0.308 m^2}=2.44\cdot 10^6 N/C$

You suspect that a power supply is faulty, but you use a power supply tester to measure its voltage output and find it to be acc

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Load

Explanation:

A normal power supply can deliver up to certain amount of power to a load. The output power can be calculated multiplying Voltage (V) x Current (A). It happens that after a certain period of time, the power source's main components begin to wear, thus losing its ability to deliver its nominal power. Normally, when no load its connected to the source, you will get the operating Voltage, but when the load demands power, the ability to deliver power to it may fail to reach nominal levels. When connected, there may be voltage drops (thus, less power output) causing malfunctions turning it into a non-operative power supply.
