Answer:

0.00417 kW/K or 4.17 W/K

Second law is satisfied.

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Rate of heat transfer, Q = 2kW

Temperature of hot reservoir, Th = 800K

Temperature of cold reservoir, Tc = 300K

The rate of entropy change is given as:

ΔS = Q * [(1/Tc) - (1/Th)]

ΔS = 2 * (1/300 - 1/800)

ΔS = 2 * 0.002085

ΔS = 0.00417 kW/K or 4.17 W/K

Since ΔS is greater than 0, te the second law of thermodynamics is satisfied.

Answer:

a = (v2 - v1) / t

From A to B    (8 - 4) m/s / 1 s = 4 m / s^2

From A to D    ( 7 - 4) m/s / 5 s = .6 m / s^2

Note these equations hold for "uniform" values

They say nothing about the acceleration at intermediate points - the equation just says that his average speed increased from 4 m/s to 7 m/s during a 5 sec period

Why centre of mass equal to centre of gravity
Maksim231197 [3]
Because mass and distance determine gravity, so the more mass you have, the more gravity.

The universal law of gravitation states that the force of attraction between two objects depends on which quantities?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

D. the masses of the objects and the distance between them

Explanation:

Gravitation is a force, a force doesn't care about the shape or density of objects, only about their masses... and distances.

And you can get it using the following equation:

f = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{d^{2} }

Where :

G is the universal gravitational constant : G = 6.6726 x 10-11N-m2/kg2

m represent the mass of each of the two objects

d is the distance between the centers of the objects.

The weight of a boy having a mass of 50 kg is __N.<br> ???
lakkis [162]

Answer: 490N

Explanation:

Newton is the unit for force. Force = mass x acceleration

F=N m=50kg a=9.8 (earth's acceleration of gravity)

F=50X9.8

F≈490N
