Answer:

Transferring heat to a body.

Step by step answer:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorder of a system. This increases when we move from a state of greater order to one of a greater degree of disorder.

By heating a body, this causes the energy of the body to increase. This means that the speed of the molecules that compose it increases and makes them collide more frequently between them, creating an increase in the degree of disorder that exists.

A clear example of heat transfer is when a body changes its state and moves from an orderly state to one of greater disorder.

 For example:

  • Moving from a solid state to a liquid state:

Melt an ice cube

  • Move from liquid to gaseous:

Heat water until it starts to boil and turns into steam

You do not necessarily have to change the state to increase the entropy.

For example when heating water without boiling.

Naily [24]

Answer: Proximity to active volcanoes

Explanation:

When volcanoes erupt, they can generate tsunamis in the following ways:

-Parts of the volcano (some of them may be underwater) could collapse, generating a big displacement of water and resulting in a tsunami.

-The magma chamber could also collapse as it empties, also generating water displacement.

-If the volcanoes are near to the shore, debris resulting from the eruption could hit the water at fast speeds, producing big waves and eventually a tsunami.

In this case, the proximity of Palu city to active volcanoes, especially ones that are so close to the shore, increases the risk of a tsunami.

Suppose you are drinking root beer from a conical paper cup. The cup has a diameter of 10 centimeters and a depth of 13 centimet
sveta [45]

Answer:

The level of the root beer is dropping at a rate of 0.08603 cm/s.

Explanation:

The volume of the cone is :

V=\frac {1}{3}\times \pi\times r^2\times h

Where, V is the volume of the cone

r is the radius of the cone

h is the height of the cone

The ratio of the radius and the height remains constant in overall the cone.

Thus, given that, r = d / 2 = 10 / 2 cm = 5 cm

h = 13 cm

r / h = 5 / 13

r = {5 / 13} h

V=\frac {1}{3}\times \frac {22}{7}\times ({{{\frac {5}{13}\times h}}})^2\times h

V=\frac {550}{3549}\times h^3

Also differentiating the expression of volume w.r.t. time as:

\frac {dV}{dt}=\frac {550}{3549}\times 3\times h^2\times \frac {dh}{dt}

Given: \frac {dV}{dt} = -4 cm³/sec (negative sign to show leaving)

h = 10 cm

So,

-4=\frac{550}{3549}\times 3\times {10}^2\times \frac {dh}{dt}

\frac{55000}{1183}\times \frac {dh}{dt}=-4

\frac {dh}{dt}=-0.08603\ cm/s

<u>The level of the root beer is dropping at a rate of 0.08603 cm/s.</u>
