An insulated box has a barrier that confines a gas to only one side of the box. The barrier springs a leak, allowing the gas to

flow and occupy both sides of the box. Which statement best describes the entropy of this system? A) The entropy is greater in the first state, with all the gas on one side of the box. B) The entropy is greater in the second state, with the gas on both sides of the box. C) The entropy is the same in both states, since no heat was added to the gas and its temperature did not change.

Answer:

B) The entropy is greater in the second state, with the gas on both sides of the box.

Explanation:

As we know that ,this is a irreversible process .The process leaves some effect on the surrounding or on the system itself ,is known as irreversible process.But on the other hand those process does not leave any effect on the system and surrounding is known as reversible process.

The entropy in the irreversible process always increases ,that is why the the entropy will be more when gas occupy the both boxes.

Therefore the answer is --B

A study occasionally the effect of anxiety (low vs. high) and stress (low vs. moderate vs. high) on test.

Everyone experiences anxiety occasionally, but persistent anxiety can reduce your quality of life. Though likely best known for altering behavior, worry can have negative effects on our physical health. Anxiety speeds up our heartbeat and breathing, concentrating blood flow to the parts of our brains that need it. You are getting ready for a challenging situation by having this extremely bodily reaction. Test performance may be impacted by anxiety. According to studies, pupils with low levels of test anxiety perform better on multiple-choice question (MCQ) exams than pupils with high levels of anxiety. Studies have occasionally that female students have greater levels of test anxiety than male students.

A circular cross section, d = 25 mm, experiences a torque load, T = 25 N·m, and a shear force, V = 85 kN. Calculate the shear st
Maru [420]

Answer:

The correct answer is 231 Mpa i.e option a.

Explanation:

using the equation of torsion we Have

\frac{T}{I_{p}}=\frac{\tau }{r}\\\\\therefore \tau =\frac{T}{I_{p}}\times r

where,

\tau= shear stress at a distance 'r' from the center

T = is the applied torque

I_{p} = polar moment of inertia of the section

r = radial distance from the center

Thus we can see that if a point is located at center i.e r = 0 there will be no shearing stresses at the center due to torque.

We know that in case of a circular section the maximum shearing stresses due to a shear force occurs at the center and equals

\tau _{max}=\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{V}{A}

Applying values we get

\tau _{max}=\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{85\times 10^{3}}{0.25\times \pi \times (25\times 10^{-3})^{2}}\\\\\therefore \tau _{max}=230.88Mpa\approx 231Mpa
