(a) 25lx

(b) 11.11lx

<u>Explanation:</u>

Illuminance is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

So,

I = k\frac{1}{r^2}

where, k is a constant

So,

(a)

If I = 100lx and r₂ = 2r Then,

I_2 = k\frac{1}{(2r)^2}

Dividing both the equation we get

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{k}{r^2} X\frac{(2r)^2}{k} \\\\\frac{I_1}{I_2} = 4\\\\I_2 = \frac{I_1}{4}\\\\I_2 = \frac{100}{4}  = 25lx

When the distance is doubled then the illumination reduces by one- fourth and becomes 25lx

(b)

If I = 100lx and r₂ = 3r Then,

I_2 = k\frac{1}{(3r)^2}

Dividing equation 1 and 3 we get

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{k}{r^2} X\frac{(3r)^2}{k} \\\\\frac{I_1}{I_2} = 9\\\\I_2 = \frac{I_1}{9}\\\\I_2 = \frac{100}{9}  = 11.11lx

When the distance is tripled then the illumination reduces by one- ninth and becomes 11.11lx

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

c) Both the parts will weigh the same

Explanation:

center of gravity is based on weight so if you cut down the center of gravity you would have 2 equal parts

(might be D if it is cutting against the center of gravity)

What is a consequence of the second law of thermodynamics?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:Increase in the entropy of the universe are the result of chemical reactions

Explanation:

The second law tells about the quality of energy such that any isolated system tends to become more disordered. Any natural Process occurring on its own is irreversible and entropy is increasing for that process.  

The entropy of the Universe is increasing which is the result of chemical reactions. Any chemical reaction which increases the number of gas molecules will generate more entropy. Entropy in simple meaning is the order of randomness.
