The entropy of an isolated system must be conserved, so it never changes.a. Trueb. Fasle

Physics
1 answer:
Snowcat [4.5K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B: False

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics states that: the entropy of an isolated system will never decrease because isolated systems always tend to evolve towards thermodynamic equilibrium which is a state with maximum entropy.

Thus, it means that the entropy change will always be positive.

Therefore, the given statement in the question is false.

andreev551 [17]

Jennifer runs 5 miles east, then stops to take a break. after her break, she continues running 4 more miles east.

In this the total distance she covers is 9 miles and the total displacement is also the same as the distance that is 9 miles.

<h3>What is the difference between distance and displacement?</h3>

Displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position, or we can say it is the straight-line distance between initial and final position.

Whereas distance is considered as the total path length covered from initial position till the final position. The Displacement of a body is always less than or equal to the distance.

Displacement can be zero in case the initial and final positions coincide, but distance can never be zero.

How long will it take a car to accelerate from 15.2 to 23.5 m/s if the car has an average acceleration of 3.2 m/s?
Nuetrik [128]
 a =  ( V2 - V1)/( t2 - t1)
 3.2 =  ( 23.5m/s - 15.2m/s)/(t - 0)
3.2m/s = 8.3/t
t(3.2) = 8.3
t = 8.3/3.2
t = 2.59 seconds

\. A mixture of gases con-tains oxygen, nitrogen, and water vapor. What physical process could you use to remove the water vapor
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Condensation.

Explanation:

The boiling point of water is much higher than that of either nitrogen or oxygen gas . So when the mixture is condensed  to a temperature lower than

100°C , water vapor will come out first in the form of water leaving other

elements of mixture in gaseous phase. In this way, water vapor will get separated from others.

If Fg=mg solve for g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:Fg = mg however newtons second law states that the net force acting on an object is equal to it's mass times it's acceleration so what allows us to say that Fg = mg because certainly not for every single situation the net force is going to equal to the force of gravity please explain... what allows us to say Fg = mg

As the proton approaches the uranium nucleus, the repulsive force slows down the proton until it comes momentarily to rest, afte
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

 r^2 = \frac{ 2 k  \ Ze^2}{ 2m}

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy

starting point. The proton very far from the nucleus

          Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

final point. The point where the proton is stopped (v = 0)

          Em_f = U = q V

where the potential is

          V = k Ze / r²

Let us consider that all the charge of the nucleus is in the center, therefore r is the distance from this point to the proton that is approaching

Energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

           ½ m v² = e (k \frac{Ze}{r^2})

          r^2 = \frac{ 2 k  \ Ze^2}{ 2m}

with this expression we can find the closest approach distance (r)
