Answer:

a.  -4.166 J/K

b. 8.37 J/K

c. 4.21 J/K

d. entropy always increases.

Explanation:

Given :

Temperature at hot reservoir , $T_h$ = 720 K

Temperature at cold reservoir , $T_c$ = 358 K

Transfer of heat, dQ = 3.00 kJ = 3000 J

(a). In the hot reservoir, the change of entropy is given by:

$dS_h= -\frac{dQ}{t_h}$              (the negative sign shows the loss of heat)

$dS_h= -\frac{3000}{720}$

      =  -4.166 J/K

(b)  In the cold reservoir, the change of entropy is given by:

$dS_c= \frac{dQ}{t_c}$              

$dS_c= \frac{3000}{358}$

      =  8.37 J/K

(c). The entropy change in the universe is given by:

$dS=dS_h+dS_c$

    = -4.16+8.37

   = 4.21 J/K

(d). According to the concept of entropy, the entropy of the universe is always increasing and never decreasing for an irreversible process. If the entropy of universe decreases, it violates the laws of thermodynamics. Hence, in part (c), the result have to be positive.

Two students have fitted their scooters with the same engine. Student A and his
sammy [17]

The force exerted by student A with his scooter is 306 N and that of student B is 204 N.

<h3>Force applied by each student</h3>

The force exerted by each student is calculated from Newton's second law of motion.

F = ma

where;

  • m is mass
  • a is acceleration

F(A) = 127.5 x 2.4

F(A) = 306 N

F(B) = 120 x 1.7

F(B) = 204 N

Thus, the force exerted by student A with his scooter is 306 N and that of student B is 204 N.

I need help on ideas for a science project.. (highschool ideas)
Nana76 [90]

A research question that would complete the third question you need that are related to the first 2 questions which are:

  • “what type of masks help prevent fog on glasses when breathing?”
  • “does a mask’s material affect the level of fog on glasses as an effect of breathing?”

Would be: "Are there any available masks that could prevent fog on glasses that could be improved upon"?

This new research question would help you find out if there is an already existing mask that could be made better.

<h3>What is a Research Question?</h3>

This refers to "a question that a research project sets out to answer". and seeks to give answers to particular phenomena.

Hence, we can see that the new research question Would be: "Are there any available masks that could prevent fog on glasses that could be improved upon"?

This new research question would help you find out if there is an already existing mask that could be made better.
