Answer:

The entropy change of the Universe that occurs is 19.346 J/K

Explanation:

Given;

temperature of the sun, T_s = 5,300 K

temperature of the Earth, T_E = 293 K

radiation energy transferred by the sun to the earth, E = 6000 J

The sun loses Q of heat and therefore decreases its entropy by the amount

\delta S_{sun} = \frac{-Q}{T_s}

The earth gains Q of heat and therefore increases its entropy by the amount

\delta S_{Earth} = \frac{-Q}{T_E}

The total entropy change is:

\delta S_{Earth} + \delta S_{sun} = \frac{Q}{T_E} -\frac{Q}{T_S} \\\\                                                      = Q(\frac{1}{T_E} -\frac{1}{T_S} )\\\\= 6000(\frac{1}{293} -\frac{1}{5300} )\\\\=6000(0.0032243)\\\\= 19.346 \ J/K

Therefore, the entropy change of the Universe that occurs is 19.346 J/K

Moment of inertia: A dumbbell-shaped object is composed by two equal masses, m, connected by a rod of negligible mass and length
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

B.Less than

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of each object=m

Length of rod=r

I_1=Moment of inertia of the dumbbell shaped object with respect to an axis passing through the center of the rod and perpendicular to it.

I_2=Moment of inertia with respect to an axis passing through one of the masses.

I_1=\frac{mr^2}{4}+\frac{mr^2}{4}

I_1=\frac{2mr^2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}mr^2

I_2=mr^2

I_2>I_1

Hence, I_1 is less than I_2

B.Less than

What do Ice core samples with lower ratios of O-18 to O-16 isotopes tell scientist about past climates
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Ocean-floor sediments can also be used to determine past climate. ... Ice cores contain more 16O than ocean water, so ice cores have a lower 18O/ 16O ratio than ocean water or ocean-floor sediments. Water containing the lighter isotope 16O evaporates more readily than 18O in the warmer subtropical regions

if it is known that the toggle clamp is a machine, what assumptions can be made about it? check all that apply. (you must provid
muminat

A toggle clamp is a device that you employ, often but not exclusively as part of a production process, to firmly place components or parts in place.

Explain about toggle clamp.

A toggle clamp's main characteristics are its rapid action and ability to be easily turned on and off by an operator. Toggle clamps also lock in place firmly. Because of this, toggle clamps are frequently employed in production lines where components need to be held firmly and quickly removed during routine manufacturing procedures.

Toggle clamps with standard or light action are often constructed from components of pressed steel that have been zinc-plated.

Depending on the setting in which you work, Stainless Steel is another alternative for Toggle Clamp production. Stainless steel toggle clamps are frequently used in regulated areas where hygiene is crucial, such as the food industry and the pharmaceutical business.

An unknown substance has a mass of 670 kg and a volume of 782 m^3. Will it float in water? (Water has a density of 1,000 kg/m^3.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

It will float

Explanation:

its density is lower than density of water

Its density is 670 / 782 = 0.856 kg/m³
