A well-insulated cup of water is too hot to make tea, so you mixed it with an equal amount of cool water to lower the temperatur

e. The temperature of the mixture is exactly the midpoint between the temperature of the hot and cool water. What is the entropy change of the system consisting of the total amount of water? Is it positive, negative, or no change? View Available Hint(s) A well-insulated cup of water is too hot to make tea, so you mixed it with an equal amount of cool water to lower the temperature. The temperature of the mixture is exactly the midpoint between the temperature of the hot and cool water. What is the entropy change of the system consisting of the total amount of water? Is it positive, negative, or no change? The change in entropy of the total amount of water is positive as a result of the mixing. The sign of the entropy change cannot be determined because the amount of thermal energy transferred is not given There is no entropy change in the total amount of water as a result of the mixing. The sign of the entropy change cannot be determined because the amount of water is not given. The change in entropy of the total amount of water is negative as a result of the mixing.

Answer:The change in entropy of the total amount of water is negative as a result of the mixing.

Explanation:If you increase temperature, you increase entropy

Also More energy gives you greater entropy and randomness of the atoms.

The flow of electrons through wires and components is known as:
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Electric Current

Explanation:

An electric current is defined as the flow of electrons through the wire and the components in a circuit.

This flow of electrons is caused by the presence of a battery, which creates a potential difference in the circuit. As a result of this potential difference, the electrons in the wire flow from the negative pole of the battery towards the positive pole (passing through the wire and the components of the circuit).

The astronomical unit (AU) is defined as the mean center-to-center distance from Earth to the Sun, namely 1.496x10^(11) m. The p
Rudiy27

Answer:

a) How many parsecs are there in one astronomical unit?

4.85x10^{-6}pc

(b) How many meters are in a parsec?

3.081x10^{16}m

(c) How many meters in a light-year?

9.46x10^{15}m

(d) How many astronomical units in a light-year?

63325AU

(e) How many light-years in a parsec?

3.26ly

Explanation:

The parallax angle can be used to find out the distance using triangulation. Making a triangle between the nearby star, the Sun and the Earth, knowing that the distance between the Earth and the Sun (1.496x10^{11} m) is defined as 1 astronomical unit:

\tan{p} = \frac{1AU}{d}

Where d is the distance to the star.

Since p is small it can be represent as:

p(rad) = \frac{1AU}{d}  (1)

Where p(rad) is the value of in radians

However, it is better to express small angles in arcseconds

p('') = p(rad)\frac{180^\circ}{\pi rad}.\frac{60'}{1^\circ}.\frac{60''}{1'}

p('') = 2.06x10^5 p(rad)

p(rad) = \frac{p('')}{2.06x10^5} (2)

Then, equation 2 can be replace in equation 1:

\frac{p('')}{2.06x10^5} = \frac{1AU}{d}  

\frac{d}{1AU} = \frac{2.06x10^5}{p('')}  (3)

From equation 3 it can be see that 1pc = 2.06x10^5 AU

<em>a) How many parsecs are there in one astronomical unit? </em>

1AU . \frac{1pc}{2.06x10^5AU} ⇒ 4.85x10^{-6}pc

<em>(b) How many meters are in a parsec? </em>

2.06x10^{5}AU . \frac{1.496x10^{11}m}{1AU} ⇒ 3.081x10^{16}m

<em>(c) How many meters in a light-year? </em>

To determine the number of meters in a light-year it is necessary to use the next equation:

x = c.t

Where c is the speed of light (c = 3x10^{8}m/s) and x is the distance that light travels in 1 year.

In 1 year they are 31536000 seconds

x = (3x10^{8}m/s)(31536000s)

x = 9.46x10^{15}m

<em>(d) How many astronomical units in a light-year?</em>

9.46x10^{15}m . \frac{1AU}{1.496x10^{11}m} ⇒ 63325AU

<em>(e) How many light-years in a parsec?</em>

2.06x10^{5}AU . \frac{1ly}{63235AU} ⇒ 3.26ly

How do you find the voltage of a section of a parallel circuit?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: Voltage is the same across each component of the parallel circuit. The sum of the currents through each path is equal to the total current that flows from the source. You can find total resistance in a Parallel circuit with the following formula: 1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 +.

Hope this helps!
