Answer: B. Its randomness would increase

Explanation:

According to the <u>second law of thermodynamics</u>:  

<em>"The amount of entropy in the universe tends to increase over time"</em>

<em />

That is, in any cyclic process, entropy will increase, or remain the same.

 

So, in this context, entropy is a thermodynamic quantity defined as a criterion to predict the evolution or transformation of thermodynamic systems. In addition, it is used to measure the degree of organization of a system.  

In other words: Entropy is the measure of the disorder (or randomness) of a system and is a function of state.

Which of these is a mixture?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Air is a mixture.

Explanation:

Air is a homogeneous mixture. It is made up of gaseous substances such as nitrogen, oxygen, and smaller amounts of others.

Carbon dioxide is a pure substance, not a mixture.

Carbon is another pure substance, it cannot be separated into other substances.

Oxygen is just oxygen, it does not contain any other substance.

A heat engine running backward is called a refrigerator if its purpose is to extract heat from a cold reservoir. The same engine
Goryan [66]

Answer:

a) 2.85 kW

b) $ 432

c) $ 76.95

Explanation:

Average price of electricity = 1 $/40 MJ

Q = 20 kW

Heat energy production = 20.0 KJ/s

Coefficient of performance,  K = 7

also

K=(QH)/Win

Now,

Coefficient of Performance, K = (QH)/Win = (QH)/P(in) = 20/P(in) = 7

where

P(in) is the input power

Thus,

P(in) = 20/7 = 2.85 kW

b) Cost = Energy consumed × charges

Cost = ($1/40000kWh) × (16kW × 300 × 3600s)

cost = $ 432

c) cost = (1$/40000kWh) × (2.85 kW × 200 × 3600s) = $76.95
