Answer :  The correct option is, (D) Entropy

Explanation :

Entropy : It is defined as the measurement of randomness or disorderedness in a system.

The order of entropy will be,

As we are moving from solid state to liquid state to gaseous state, the entropy will be increases due to the increase in the disorderedness.

As we are moving from gaseous state to liquid state to solid state, the entropy will be decreases due to the decrease in the disorderedness.

Enthalpy : It is defined as the amount of heat added or removed from the system.

Work : It is the product of force and distance of an object.

Efficiency : It is defined as the percent ratio of output to input energy.

Hence, the measure of disorder in a system called entropy.

the olympic swimmer swims to the end of the 50 m pool and back 4 times. calculate the distance covered.
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

400 m

Explanation:

The swimmer swims 50 meters to one end of the pool but has to swim back therefore you double 50 which would be 100 meters. Then you have to multiply 100 by 4 since the swimmer did it 4 times.

A baseball has a momentum of 6.0 kg.m/s south and mass of 0.15kg. What’s the baseballs velocity?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

<em>v=40 m/s south</em>

Explanation:

<u>Momentum </u>

It's a physical magnitude that measures the product of the mass by the velocity of a particle. Its units in the International System is kg.m/s and the formula is

p=m.v

Where m is the mass and v the velocity of the particle. If we wanted to solve for v, we have

\displaystyle v=\frac{p}{m}

The baseball has a momentum of 6.0 kg.m/s south and mass of 0.15kg, thus

\displaystyle v=\frac{6}{0.15}=40\ m/s

The velocity is directed to the south

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

finding Cepheid variable and measuring their periods.

Explanation:

This method is called  finding Cepheid variable and measuring their periods.

Cepheid variable is actually a type of star that has a radial pulsation having a varying brightness and diameter. This change in brightness is very well defined having a period and amplitude.

A potent clear link between the luminosity and pulsation period of a Cepheid variable developed Cepheids as an important determinants of cosmic criteria for scaling galactic and extra galactic distances. Henrietta Swan Leavitt revealed this robust feature of conventional Cepheid in 1908 after observing thousands of variable stars in the Magellanic Clouds. This in fact turn, by making comparisons its established luminosity to its measured brightness, allows one to evaluate the distance to the star.

A 1300-N crate rests on the floor. How much work is required to move it at constant speed (a)
kherson [118]

a) The work done is 920 J

b) The work done is 5200 J

Explanation:

a)

In this first part of the problem, the crate is moved horizontally at constant speed.

The work required in this case is given by

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force applied

d is the displacement of the crate

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

Here the crate is moved at constant speed: this means that the acceleration of the crate is zero, and so according to Newton's second law, the net force on the crate is zero: this means that the force applied, F, must be equal to the force of friction (but in opposite direction), so

F = 230 N

The displacement is

d = 4.0 m

And the angle is \theta=0^{\circ}, since the force is applied horizontally. Therefore, the work done is

W=(230)(4.0)(cos 0^{\circ})=920 J

b)

In this case, the crate is moved vertically. The force that must be applied to lift the crate must be equal to the weight of the crate (in order to move it a constant speed), therefore

F = W = 1300 N

The displacement this time is again

d = 4.0 m

And the angle is \theta=0^{\circ}, since the force is applied vertically, and the crate is moved also vertically. Therefore, the work done on the crate this time is

W=(1300)(4.0)(cos 0^{\circ})=5200 J
