The entropy of the universe is increasing


Verizon [17]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

According to second law of thermodynamics, for a spontaneous change there will be increase in entropy. So, entropy of a system will always increase as and changes that occur in the entropy in the Universe will always be positive.

Entropy means the degree of randomness.

For example, when ice melts then there then solid form of water will change into liquid form. During this change molecules of ice move away from each other.

As a result, change in entropy will occur.

Derive the expression for the equivalent resistance of three resistors in[1] paraleli [2] series
sergeinik [125]
The total resistance of an electric circuit with resistors widener series in the sum of the individual resistances:
Each resistor in a series circuit has a same amount of current flowing through it.
Each resistor in a parallel circuit has the same for voltage of the source applied to it.

When was this is are connected in parallel, the supply current is equal to the sum of the current through each resistor. In other words the currents in the branches of a parallel circuit add up to the supply current. When resistors are connected in parallel they have the same potential differences across them.

2. A woman prevents a 3kg brick from falling by pressing it against a vertical wall. The coefficient of friction
Anettt [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

49 N

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Mass of the brick as 3 kg
  • The coefficient of friction as 0.6

We are required to determine the force that must be applied by the woman so the brick does not fall.

  • We need to importantly note that;
  • For the brick not to fall the, the force due to gravity is equal to the friction force acting on the brick.
  • That is; Friction force = Mg

But; Friction force = μ F

Therefore;

μ F = mg

0.6 F = 3 × 9.8

0.6 F = 29.4

      F = 49 N

Therefore, she must use a force of 49 N

A tuba creates a 4th harmonic of
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

93.54 Hz

Explanation:

✓From the question, Number of harmonic frequency is 4

✓ the frequency (f₄ )= 116.5 Hz

✓harmonic frequency can be calculated using below expresion

fₙ = [ (nv)/4L]..........eqn(1)

v = speed of sound= 343 m/s

n = number of given harmonic frequency

L = Length of the rope

Using above expresion ,and substitute the values at (n=4) which is 4th harmonic frequency to find the " initial Lenght of the rope

fₙ = [ (nv)/4L]

f₄ = 4× 343 /4L

f₄ = 343 /L

L= 343 /f₄

But f₄= 116.5 Hz

L= 343/116.5= 2.944m

Hence, initial Lenght of the rope= 2.944m

We can determine the frequency of new length as ( initial Lenght of the rope + tubing Lenght)

= ( 2.944m + 0.721m )

= 3.667m

Hence, new length= 3.667m

To find the new frequency of the 4th harmonic we will use eqn(2)

f₄ = v/l ...............eqn(2)

From equation (2) If we substitute the values we have

f₄ = (343/3.667)

= 93.54 Hz

Hence, the the new frequency of the 4th harmonic is

93.54 Hz
