A bungee jumper falls 97.2 feet before bouncing back up at the end of his bungee cord. Then he falls 64.8 feet before bouncing u

p again. On his third descent, he falls 43.2 feet before going back up. What is the total distance the bungee jumper drops after five falls if the distances continue in this pattern? (Do not include the distance traveled up.) A)234.0 ft. B)253.2 ft. C)789.8 ft. D)1,281.8 ft

The answer is letter B. 

The solution is as follows:
97.2 ft/ x = 64.8 ft
97.2 / 64.8 = x
x = 1.5

Divide 97.2 by x 4 times and we have the following data:
1st fall = 97.2 ft
2nd fall = 64.8 ft
3rd fall =  43.2 ft
4th fall =  28.8 ft
5th fall =  19.2 ft
Total distance of falls = 253.2 ft

Calculate the change in entropy as 0.3071 kg of ice at 273.15 K melts. (The latent heat of fusion of water is 333000 J / kg)
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

374.39 J/K

Explanation:

Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of disorder or randomness of a substance.

The S.I unit of entropy is J/K

ΔS = ΔH/T ..................................... Equation 1

Where ΔS = entropy change, ΔH = Heat change, T = temperature.

ΔH = cm................................... Equation 2

Where,

c = specific latent heat of fusion of water = 333000 J/kg, m = mass of ice = 0.3071 kg.

Substitute into equation 2

ΔH = 333000×0.3071

ΔH = 102264.3 J.

Also, T = 273.15 K

Substitute into equation 1

ΔS = 102264.3/273.15

ΔS = 374.39 J/K

Thus, The change in entropy = 374.39 J/K

If ∆H = + VE , THEN WHAT REACTION IT IS<br>1) exothermic<br>2) endothermic​
podryga [215]

Answer:

endothermic

Explanation:

An endothermic is any process with an increase in the enthalpy H (or internal energy U) of the system. In such a process, a closed system usually absorbs thermal energy from its surroundings, which is heat transfer into the system.
