Answer:

<h2>A.</h2>

The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of a system either increases or remains constant in any spontaneous process; it never decreases. ... This is because entropy increases for heat transfer of energy from hot to cold (Figure 12.9).

Is 45 m/s2 a scalar or a vector quantity and how do you know?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

it is a vector as it has a magnitude and a direction. If it was a scalar quantity it would just have a magnitude and would be 45 m. Acceleration is an example of a vector quantity

A particle of mass 4.5 × 10-8 kg and charge +5.4 μC is traveling due east. It enters perpendicularly a magnetic field whose magn
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

0.00970 s

Explanation:

The centripetal force that causes the charge to move in a circular motion = The force exerted on the charge due to magnetic field

Force due to magnetic field = qvB sin θ

q = charge on the particle = 5.4 μC

v = velocity of the charge

B = magnetic field strength = 2.7 T

θ = angle between the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field = 90°, sin 90° = 1

F = qvB

Centripetal force responsible for circular motion = mv²/r = mvw

where w = angular velocity.

The centripetal force that causes the charge to move in a circular motion = The force exerted on the charge due to magnetic field

mvw = qvB

mw = qB

w = (qB/m) = (5.4 × 10⁻⁶ × 2.7)/(4.5 × 10⁻⁸)

w = 3.24 × 10² rad/s

w = 324 rad/s

w = (angular displacement)/time

Time = (angular displacement)/w

Angular displacement = π rads (half of a circle; 2π/2)

Time = (π/324) = 0.00970 s

Hope this Helps!!!

A person is listening to a tone of 500 Hz sitting from a distance of 450 m from the source of the sound. What is the time interv
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

ΔX = λ = 0.68 m

Explanation:

Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency by the equation

          v = λ f

where the speed of sound is 340 m / s

          λ = v / f

          λ = 340/500

          λ = 0.68 m

this is the wavelength, it is the minimum distance for which the wave epitates its movement, which is equal to the distance between two consecutive compressions of the sound

          ΔX = λ = 0.68 m

In the photoelectric effect, the greater the frequency of the illuminating light, the greater the:_______
TEA [102]

Answer:

B. Maximum velocity of ejected electrons.

Explanation:

The ejection of electrons form a metal surface when the metal surface is exposed to a monochromatic electromagnetic wave of sufficiently short wavelength or higher frequency (or equivalently, above a threshold frequency),  which leads to the enough energy of the wave to incident and get absorbed to the exposed surface emits electrons. This phenomenon is known as the photoelectric effect or photo-emission.

The minimum amount of energy required by a metal surface to eject an electron from its surface is called work function of metal surface.

The electrons thus emitted are called photo-electrons.

The current produced as a result is called photo electricity.

Energy of photon is given by:

E=h.\nu

where:

h = Planck's constant

\nu= frequency of the incident radiation.
