<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option D. Which is "Over time, the lawn has naturally become disorderly".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Entropy, the measure of a system's thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work.
  • It is also a measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system.
  • According to above definitions of entropy option D is correct.
  • <u>So entropy of system is randomness/disorder that is increasing with time in case of lawn.</u>

A large crane consists of a 20 m, 3,000 kg arm that extends horizontally on top of a vertical tower. The arm extends 15 m toward
Anni [7]

Answer:

m=18000kg

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Crane Length l=20m

Crane Mass m_a=3000kg

Arm extension at lifting end l_l=15m

Arm extension at counter weight end l_c=5m

Load M_l=5000kg

Generally the equation for Torque Balance is mathematically given by

T_1 *l_c-(m_a*g) *l_c-(T_2)*l_l=0

mg*5 *-(3000*9.8) *5-(5000*9.8)*15=0

m=18000kg

A rock is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 16 ft/s from an initial height of 5 ft. write a quadratic function equation
Andrei [34K]
During upward projection the final velocity is zero, and the gravitational acceleration is -10 m/s² (against the gravity).
Therefore; using the equation;
S = 1/2gt² + ut
Where s is the height h, g is gravitational acceleration, and t is the time and u is the initial velocity u, is 16 ft/s.
Thus; h= 1/2(-10)t² + 16t
We get; h = -5t² + 16t
Therefore; the quadratic equation is 5t² - 16t + h =0

State and explain newton second law of motion also describe the concept of force, represent it quantiatively and derive the unit
Molodets [167]

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states F=ma which means force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration which in simple terms means If you give mass force it will accelerate the concept of force in physics is any interaction that when unopposed will change the motion of an object.

A steel ball of mass 50 g is rolled from the left toward a ball of lead of mass 500 g. The steel ball is traveling with a veloci
alina1380 [7]

Answer: It's hard to say without characterizing the collision. But it will be either A if the collision is totally in-elastic, or B if the collision is totally elastic. It could be anywhere in between for partially elastic collisions.

Explanation:

momentum is conserved, so initial system momentum will be left to right.

The velocity of the center of mass is 50(5) / 550 = 0.4545... m/s

In an elastic collision, the lead ball will move off at twice that speed or 0.91 m/s to the right.

The steel ball will bounce back and move away at 0.91 - 5 = -4.1 m/s . The negative sign indicates the steel ball has reversed course and has negative momentum

In a totally in-elastic collision, both balls would move to the right at 0.45 m/s. The steel ball will still have positive momentum.
