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).

Choose the sources of gamma rays. Check all that apply.

harina [27]

Answer:

a. Stars all warm objects

c. Some unstable atomic nuclei

Explanation:

Gamma rays are photons of very high energy (beyond 100keV) enough to remove an electron from its orbit.

They have a very short wavelength, less than 5 meters from the peak, and can be produced by nuclear decay, especially in the breasts of massive stars at the end of life.

They were discovered by the French chemist Paul Villard (1860 to 1934).

While X-rays are produced by electronic transitions in general caused by the collision of an electron with an atom at high speed, gamma rays are produced by nuclear transitions.

Gamma rays produce damage similar to those caused by X-rays or ultraviolet rays (burns, cancer and genetic mutations).

The sources of gamma rays that we observe in the universe come from <u>massive stars (hypernovas) or some warm objects on the space</u> that end their lives by a gravitational collapse that leads to the formation of a neutron star or a black hole, as well as <u>unstable radioactive nuclei </u>that emit radiation gamma to reach its steady state.

suter [353]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

According to information found in an old hydraulics book, the energy loss per unit weight of fluid flowing through a nozzle connected to a hose can be estimated by the formula; h= (0.04 to 0.09)(D/d)⁴V²/2g

where h is the energy loss per unit weight, D the hose diameter, d the nozzle tip diameter, V the fluid velocity in the hose, and g the acceleration of gravity.

Do you think this equation is valid in any system of units

Answer:

YES, the equation is a general equation that is valid in any system of units

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

h = (0.04 to 0.09)(D/d)⁴ × $\frac{V^{2} }{2g}$

so

[ N.m/N ] = (0.04 to 0.09) ( m/m)² × (m²/s²)1/2 × (s²/m)

[ N.L/N ] = (0.04 to 0.09) ( L⁴/L⁴) × (L²/T²)1/2 × (T²/L)

∴ [ L ] = (0.04 to 0.09) [L]

So as each term in the equation must have the same dimensions, the constant term (0.04 to 0.09) must be without dimension.

Therefore, YES, the equation is a general equation that is valid in any system of units

A uniform cylindrical grindstone has a mass of 15.0 kg and a radius of 18.6 cm. The grindstone reaches a rotational velocity of

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

$n \approx 5.778\times 10^{-4}\,rev$

Explanation:

The Work-Energy Theorem is applied herein:

$-\frac{1}{4}\cdot m_{cyl}\cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2} = - \mu_{k}\cdot N\cdot r \cdot 2\pi \cdot n$

The number of turns needed to stop the grindstone is:

$n = \frac{m_{cyl}\cdot R^{2}\cdot \omega^{2}}{4\cdot \mu_{k}\cdot N \cdot r\cdot 2\pi}$

$n = \frac{(15\,kg)\cdot (0.186\,m)^{2}\cdot [(1.83\,\frac{rev}{min} )\cdot (\frac{2\pi\,rad}{1\,rev} )\cdot (\frac{1\,min}{60\,s} )]^{2}}{4\cdot (0.80)\cdot (8.82\,N)\cdot(0.186\,m)\cdot 2\pi}$

$n \approx 5.778\times 10^{-4}\,rev$

Answer:

i think 2 N right because the wheels have a bigger force so we will subtract both sides which is 2 and right is longer so its 2 N Right?
