The release of free energy drives the spontaneous reaction.

Spontaneity can be <span>determined using the change in </span>Gibbs free energy (the thermodynamic potencial):

delta G=delta H – T*delta S

where delta H is the enthalpy and delta S is the entropy.

The direction (the sign) of delta G depends of the changes of enthalpy and entropy. If delta G is negative then the process is spontaneous.

In our case, both delta H and delta S are negative values, the process as said is spontaneous which means that it may proceed in the forward direction.

If the coefficient of static friction between your coffee cup and the horizontal dashboard of your car is µs = 0.800, how fast c

Cloud [144]

Answer:

Before start of slide velocity will be 14.81 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given coefficient of static friction $\mu =0.8$

Angle of inclination is equal to $\Theta =tan^{-1}\mu$

$\Theta =tan^{-1}0.8=38.65^{\circ}$

$tan{38.65^{\circ}}=0.8$

Radius is given r = 28 m

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We know that $tan\Theta =\frac{v^2}{rg}$

$0.8=\frac{v^2}{28\times 9.8}$

$v^2=219.52$

$v=14.816m/sec$

So before start of slide velocity will be 14.81 m/sec

Jane, looking for tarzan, is running at top speed (5.2 m/s) and grabs a vine hanging 4.5 m vertically from a tall tree in the ju

kumpel [21]

While Jane is running has a kinetic energy, which is Ek = 1/2*m*v^2 where m is mass and v is velocity  When she grabs a vine, she is going to change the kinetic energy to potential energy.
We know that potential energy is given by Ep = m*g*h where m is mass, g is gravity constant and h is height
So while running the kinetic energy is Ek = 1/2 * m * 5.2^2 = 13.52*m
Then all that energy is used to swing upward and gain potential energy
Ep = m*g*h = Ek = 13.52*m
m*9.8*h = 13.52*m
h = 13.52/9.8 = 1.38 meters
So Jane will swing 1.38 meters upward

In the two-slit experiment, monochromatic light of wavelength 600 nm passes through a 19) pair of slits separated by 2.20 x 10-5

kumpel [21]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Wavelength of monochromatic light, $\lambda=600\ nm=6\times 10^{-7}\ m$

Slits separation, $d=2.2\times 10^{-5}\ m$

(a) We need to find the angle corresponding to the first bright fringe. For bright fringe the equation is given as :

$d\ sin\theta=n\lambda$ , n = 1

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\lambda}{d})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{6\times 10^{-7}}{2.2\times 10^{-5}})$

$\theta=1.56^{\circ}$

(b) We need to find the angle corresponding to the second dark fringe, n = 1

So, $d\ sin\theta=(n+\dfrac{1}{2})\lambda$

$sin\theta=\dfrac{3\lambda}{2d}$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{3\lambda}{2d})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{3\times 6\times 10^{-7}}{2\times 2.2\times 10^{-5}})$

$\theta=2.34^{\circ}$

Hence, this is the required solution.
