A metal wire is in thermal contact with two heat reservoirs at both of its ends. Reservoir 1 is at a temperature of 563 K, and r

eservoir 2 is at a temperature of 354 K. Compute the total change in entropy arising from the conduction of 1760 J of heat through the wire. Please give your answer in units of J/K.

Answer:

1.85 J/K

Explanation:

The computation of total change in entropy is shown below:-

Change in Entropy = Sum Q ÷ T

= \frac{-heat\ entering\ the\ reservoir}{Reservoir\ 1\ Temperature} + \frac{Conduction\ of\ heat}{Reservoir\ 2\ Temperature}

= \frac{-1760}{563} + \frac{1760}{354}

= -3.12 + 4.97

= 1.85 J/K

Therefore for computing the total change in entropy we simply applied the above formula.

As we can see that there is heat entering the reservoir so it will be negative while cold reservoir will be positive else the process would be impossible.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

243J

Explanation:

K.E = 1/2 x 54 x 3^2

K.E = 1/2 x 54 x 9

K.E = 1/2 x 486

K.E = 486/2

K.E = 243J

A single point charge is placed at the center of an imaginary cube that has 10 cm long edges. The electric flux out of one of th
12345 [234]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Length of each side of the cube, L=10\ cm

The Elecric flux through one of the side of the cube is, \phi =-1 kNm^2/C.

The net flux through a closed surface is defined as the total charge that lie inside the closed surface divided by \epsilon_0

Since Flux is a scalar quantity. It can added to get total flux through the surface.

\phi_{total}=\dfrac{Q_{in}}{\epsilon_0}\\6\times {-1}\times 10^3=\dfrac{Q_{in}}{\epsilon_0}\\\\Q_{in}=-6}\times 10^3\epsilon_0\\Q_{in}=-6}\times 10^3\times8.85\times 10^{-12}\\Q_{in}=-53.1\times10^{-9}\ C

So the the charge at the centre is calculated.

The tailor makes 4 blue shirts for every 3 white shirts he makes. If the tailor makes 12 white shirts in 1 day, how many blue sh
Sati [7]
4 blue = 3 white
x blue = 12 white?

\frac{4 blue}{3 white} =  \frac{x blue}{12 white}

Cross multiply
48 = 3x
x = 16 blue

Another way to do this is figure how many times 3 whites go into 12 whites.
That's 4 times.
So 4 blue x 4 = 16 blue
