Answer:

The vector sum of all forces acting on it is zero, its at equilibrium.

Explanation:

The bag of marbles hanging on a spring scale applies its weight downwards, which was counterbalanced by the reaction from the spring scale (obeying the Newton's third law of motion). And since no external forces are applied to the system, thus the equilibrium of the system.

If the weight of the bag is greater than the reaction from the spring scale, the scale breaks and the system would not be balanced.

1. Most waves are caused by vibrations. What motion in a transmitting antenna causes the vibrations that produce radio waves?

The answer 1 is
The best-known use of radio waves is for communication; television, cellphones and radios all receive radio waves and convert them to mechanical vibrations in the speaker to create sound waves that can be heard.Electromagnetic radiation is transmitted inwaves or particles at different wavelengths and frequencies.

the answer 2 is

Radio Waves: Instant Communication
Microwaves: Data and Heat

i think the answer number 3 is
It is all about wavelength versus tunnel diameter. The wavelength of GPS is about 20cm it would happily propagate in any normal tunnel if it could get in but the earth and other structures absorb it. AM radio (600kHz - 1500kHz) cannot propagate in any normal tunnel because the wavelength is too long (500m-200m) relative to the diameter, and thus gets reflected at the entrance. FM (100MHz ~ 3m) would propagate and it does for a while but then it suffers reflections

Cuanto cambia la entropía de 0.50 kg de vapor de mercurio [Lv: 2.7 x 10⁵ j/kg ] al calentarse en su punto de ebullición de 357°

lord [1]

Answer:

La entropía del vapor de mercurio cambia en 214.235 joules por Kelvin.

Explanation:

Por definición de entropía ( $S$ ), medida en joules por Kelvin, tenemos la siguiente expresión:

$dS = \frac{\delta Q}{T}$ (1)

Donde:

$Q$ - Ganancia de calor, en joules.

$T$ - Temperatura del sistema, en Kelvin.

Ampliamos (1) por la definición de calor latente:

$dS = \frac{L_{v}}{T}\cdot dm$ (1b)

Donde:

$m$ - Masa del sistema, en kilogramos.

$L_{v}$ - Calor latente de vaporización, en joules

Puesto que no existe cambio en la temperatura durante el proceso de vaporización, transformamos la expresión diferencial en expresión de diferencia, es decir:

$\Delta S = \frac{\Delta m \cdot L_{v}}{T}$

Como vemos, el cambio de la entropía asociada al cambio de fase del mercurio es directamente proporcional a la masa del sistema. Si tenemos que $m = 0.50\,kg$ , $L_{v} = 2.7\times 10^{5}\,\frac{J}{kg}$ and $T = 630.15\,K$ , entonces el cambio de entropía es:
