Answer:2.517 J/K

Explanation:

Given

Reservoir 1 Temperature T_1=781 K

Reservoir 2 Temperature T_2=335 K

Let Q is the amount of heat Flows i.e. Q=1477 J

thus change in Entropy is given by \frac{\sum Q}{T}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{Q}{T_1}+\frac{Q}{T_2}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{1477}{781}+\frac{1477}{335}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-1.891+4.4089

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=2.517 J/K

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

All the predictions in the impact theory are true.

Explanation:

That’s because of their predictions. Modern computer simulations predict that there happened a collision between Earth and a planet named as Theia. The chunks of both planets conformed into a stable orbit and form the satellite that we know today as our Moon. Similarly, both moon and Earth share similar mantle compositions but cores are dissimilar in terms of their size and composition.

An object of unknown mass is hung on the end of an unstretched spring and is released from rest. The acceleration of gravity is
lakkis [162]

Answer:

0.33 s

Explanation:

For this case, as the object is hung on the end of an unstretched spring, we can consider this system as a simple pendulum.

For this system, we can determine the period of the motion using the following formula:

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where: T = period (in sec), L = lenght of the spring, g = acceleration of garvity = 9.8 m/s²

By the exact time the object is 2.75 cm before coming to rest, that will be the lenght of the spring we can consider (2.75 cm = 0.0275 m)

Finally:

T = 2π√(0.00275/9.8)

T = 0.33 sec

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ne has its outside shell full of electrons; therefore, its reaction with other elements is minimal if at all. Na, the next element, has 1 more proton and 1 more electron. More importantly that added electron is in the outside shell. It can fill that shell by ADDing 7 more electrons or LOSing the one electron. Obviously, it loses the one electron and it does so with gusto which makes Na a very reaction element while Ne is not reactive at all. Now follow oobleck's instructions, add what you read to what I've written,then summarize all of it in your own words.
