Answer:

The average velocity is 0.15 m/s

Explanation:

Use the definition of average velocity as the distance traveled divided the time it took.

Since the movement was on the plane from the origin (0, 0) to the point (-30, 20) corresponding to 30 m west and 20 m north, we calculate the distance using the distance between two points on the plane:

distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} = \sqrt{(-30)^2+20^2} =\sqrt{1300} \approx 36.06\,\,m

Then the magnitude of the average velocity can be estimated via the quotient between distance divided time, but since the units required are meters per second, we first convert the four minute time into seconds: 4 * 60 = 240 seconds.

Then the average velocity becomes:

v_{ave}=\frac{distance}{time} =\frac{36.06}{240} =0.15\,\,m/s

Heat transfers energy from a hot object to a cold object. Both objects are isolated from their surroundings. The change in entro
aniked [119]

To develop this problem we will start from the definition of entropy as a function of total heat, temperature. This definition is mathematically described as

S = \frac{Q}{T}

Here,

Q = Total Heat

T = Temperature

The total change of entropy from a cold object to a hot object is given by the relationship,

\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T_{cold}}-\frac{Q}{T_{hot}}

From this relationship we can realize that the change in entropy by the second law of thermodynamics will be positive. Therefore the temperature in the hot body will be higher than that of the cold body, this implies that this term will be smaller than the first, and in other words it would imply that the magnitude of the entropy 'of the hot body' will always be less than the entropy 'cold body'

Change in entropy \Delta S_{hot} is smaller than \Delta S_{cold}

Therefore the correct answer is C. Will always have a smaller magnitude than the change in entropy of the cold object
