What is the entropy of a closed system in which 28 distinguishable grains of sand are distributed among 1000 distinguishable equ

baherus [9]3 years ago

Answer:

193.4 J/K

Explanation:

For a closed system, the entropy is given as the natural logarithm of microstates.

The number of particles ( grains of sand ) N = 28

The number of boxes ( compartments ) M = 1000

Entropy is the logarithm of number of microstates

S=ln \psi

But the number of microstates is given by

\psi=M^{N} hence S=ln M^{N}=\ln (1000^{28})= \boxed{193.4 J/K}

What are the main factors that influence the climate of any location on earth?
icang [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The climate of any particular place is influenced by a host of interacting factors.

The factor that influence climate are

1. latitude

2. elevation,

3. nearby water

4. ocean currents

5. topography

6. vegetation

7. prevailing winds.

The primary cause of climate change is the burning of fossil fuels, such as oil and coal, which emits greenhouse gases into the atmosphere—primarily carbon dioxide. Other human activities, such as agriculture and deforestation, also contribute to the proliferation of greenhouse gases that cause climate change.

A fairground ride consists of a large vertical drum that spins so
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

v = 3.84 m/s

Explanation:

In order for the riders to stay pinned against the inside of the drum the frictional force on them must be equal to the centripetal force:

Centripetal\ Force = Frictional\ Force\\\\\frac{mv^2}{r} = \mu R = \mu W\\\\\frac{mv^2}{r} = \mu mg\\\\\frac{v^2}{r} = \mu g\\\\v = \sqrt{\mu gr}

where,

v = minimum speed = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

r = radius = 10 m

μ = coefficient of friction = 0.15

Therefore,

v=\sqrt{(0.15)(9.81\ m/s^2)(10\ m)}

<u>v = 3.84 m/s</u>

gayaneshka [121]

A line from second to home creates a right triangle with 45 degree angles.

This makes the diagonal line the side length of the square multiplied by the sqrt(2)

Second to home = 90sqrt(2) = 127.279 feet ( round answer as needed)
