Which of the following statements is representative of the second law of thermodynamics? Heat represents a form of energy that can be used by most organisms to do work. Conversion of energy from one form to another is always accompanied by some gain of free energy. Cells require a constant input of energy to maintain their high level of organization. Without an input of energy, organisms would tend toward decreasing entropy. Every energy transformation by a cell decreases the entropy of the universe.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Cells require a constant input of energy to maintain their high level of organization.

Explanation:

According to the second principle of thermodynamics:

"The amount of entropy in the universe tends to increase over time ".

That is, in any cyclic process, entropy will increase, or remain the same.

So, in this context, entropy is a thermodynamic quantity defined as a criterion to predict the evolution or transformation of thermodynamic systems. In addition, it is used to measure the degree of organization of a system.  

In other words: Entropy is the measure of the disorder of a system and is a function of state.

Now, in the specific case of cells, in order to maintain their high level of organization, which goes against the natural tendency to disorder, a constant input of energy is necessary to maintain that level.

Answer 2

The Second Law of Thermodynamics explains how energy transfers result in some energy being lost in unusable forms, such as heat energy.

The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that in every energy transfer, some amount of energy is lost in a form that is unusable, often in the form of heat energy. This principle explains why energy transfers are never completely efficient, leading to increased disorder or entropy in the universe.

Answers

Answer:

Velocity is 2.17 m/s at an angle of 9.03° above X-axis.

Explanation:

Mass of object 1 , m₁ = 300 g = 0.3 kg

Mass of object 2 , m₂ = 400 g = 0.4 kg

Initial velocity of object 1 , v₁ = 5.00i-3.20j m/s

Initial velocity of object 2 , v₂ = 3.00j m/s

Mass of composite = 0.7 kg

We need to find final velocity of composite.

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Initial momentum = 0.3 x (5.00i-3.20j) + 0.4 x 3.00j = 1.5 i + 0.24 j kgm/s

Final momentum = 0.7 x v = 0.7v kgm/s

In a circus performance, a large 3.8 kg hoop with a radius of 1.3 m rolls without slipping. If the hoop is given an angular speed of 6.7 rad/s while rolling on the horizontal and is allowed to roll up a ramp inclined at 15◦ with the horizontal, how far (measured along the incline) does the hoop roll? The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . Answer in units of m

Answers

Answer:

L = 30 m

Explanation:

As per mechanical energy conservation law we can say that total kinetic energy of the hoop is equal to the total gravitational potential energy at the top

So here we can say for initial total kinetic energy as

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2[/tex]

for pure rolling we will have

[tex]v = r\omega[/tex]

also for large hoop we will have

[tex]I = mR^2[/tex]

now we have

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2}mR^2\omega^2 + \frac{1}{2}(mR^2)\omega^2[/tex]

[tex]KE = mR^2\omega^2[/tex]

[tex]KE = (3.8)(1.3)^2(6.7)^2[/tex]

[tex]KE = 288.3 J[/tex]

now for gravitational potential energy we can say

[tex]U = mg(Lsin\theta)[/tex]

now by energy conservation we have

[tex]288.3 = (3.8)(9.81)(L sin15)[/tex]

[tex]L = 30 m[/tex]

The horizontal distance traveled by the hoop is approximately 30 m.

Total kinetic energy of the ball

The total kinetic energy of the ball is the sum of the translational and rotational kinetic of the ball.

K.E(total) = K.E(trans) + K.E(rotational)

[tex]K.E(t) = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega ^2\\\\K.E(t) = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} (mR^2) \omega ^2\\\\K.E(t) = \frac{1}{2}m(\omega R)^2 + \frac{1}{2} (mR^2) \omega ^2\\\\K.E(t) = m\omega ^2R^2\\\\K.E(t) = 3.8 \times (6.7)^2 \times (1.3)^2\\\\K.E(t) = 288.28 \ J[/tex]

Conservation of energy

The horizontal distance traveled by the hoop is calculated as follows;

K.E = P.E

288.28  = mg(Lsinθ)

288.28 = (3.8 x 9.8) x (L) x sin(15)

Answers

Answer:

When the ball goes to first base it will be 4.23 m high.

Explanation:

Horizontal velocity = 30 cos17.3 = 28.64 m/s

   Horizontal displacement = 40.5 m

   Time  

         [tex]t=\frac{40.5}{28.64}=1.41s[/tex]          

   Time to reach the goal posts 40.5 m away = 1.41 seconds

Answers

Answer:

Mass of the stick = 139.04 gram

Explanation:

Let the mass of the meter stick be = M grams

given:

Attached mass, m = 50.0 gram

position of the fulcrum = 39.2 cm

The meter stick is balanced at 49.7 cm, therefore the center of mass of the stick will be at 49.7 cm

Now for the system to be balanced the moment due to all the masses about the fulcrum must be equal.

thus,

moment = Force × perpendicular distance from the point of movement

Force = mass × acceleration due to gravity(g)

therefore,

(refer figure for the distances)

AM radio signals use amplitude modulation of the radio waves to transmit a signal. A typical wavelength of an AM radio wave is 300. meters. What is the frequency of such a radio wave? a) 1.00 µHz b) 1.00 mHz c) 1.00 kHz d) 1.00 MHz e) 1.00 Hz

Answers

Answer:

The frequency of such a radio wave is 1 MHz.

(d) is correct option

Explanation:

Given that,

Wave length = 300 m

We know that,

Speed of light [tex]c= 3\times10^{8}\ m/s[/tex]

We calculate the frequency

Using formula of frequency

[tex]c = f\times\lambda[/tex]

[tex]f = \dfrac{c}{\lambda}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]f=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{300}[/tex]

[tex]f =1\times10^{6}\ Hz[/tex]

[tex]f =1\ MHz[/tex]

Hence, The frequency of such a radio wave is 1 MHz.

Final answer:

The frequency of an AM radio wave with a wavelength of 300 meters is 1.00 MHz, using the formula c = λf, and knowing that the speed of light c is 3×10^8 m/s, the calculation results in a frequency of 1.00 MHz, which is 1×10^6 Hz.

Explanation:

To calculate the frequency of an AM radio wave given the wavelength, we can use the speed of light formula c = λf where c is the speed of light (approximately 3×108 meters per second), λ (lambda) is the wavelength, and f is the frequency. Since the typical wavelength for an AM radio wave is given as 300 meters, we plug this value into the equation to find the frequency:

f = c / λ

f = (3×108 m/s) / (300 m)

f = 1×106 Hz or 1.00 MHz

The frequency of an AM radio wave that has a wavelength of 300 meters is therefore 1.00 MHz, which corresponds to option (d).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a_c = 120.4 m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

As we know that stone is revolving in horizontal circle

so here height of the stone is H = 1.9 m

now by kinematics we can find the time to reach it at the ground

[tex]H = \frac{1}[2}gt^2[/tex]

now we have

[tex]1.9 = \frac{1}{2}(9.81)t^2[/tex]

now we have

[tex]t = 0.622 s[/tex]

now the speed of the stone is given as

[tex]v = \frac{x}{t}[/tex]

[tex]v = \frac{8.9}{0.622} = 14.3 m/s[/tex]

now for finding centripetal acceleration we have

[tex]a_c = \frac{v^2}{R}[/tex]

we know that radius of circle is

R = 1.7 m

now we have

g A ray of light is incident on a flat reflecting surface and is reflected. If the incident ray makes an angle of 28.7° with the normal to the reflecting surface, what angle does the reflected ray make with the normal?

Answers

When a ray of light is incident on a flat reflecting surface and makes an angle of 28.7° with the normal, the reflected ray will also make an angle of 28.7° with the normal.

When light reflects off a flat surface, the angle of incidence at that time equals the angle of reflection. Given an incident angle of 28.7° with the normal, the reflected ray will also make an angle of 28.7° with the normal. This principle, known as the law of reflection.

In addition, this principle applies universally to all the flat surfaces and ensures that light behaves predictably when interacting with various reflective surfaces, thereby making it a fundamental concept in both optics and physics. Thus, in this given scenario, the angle of reflection is 28.7°, maintaining consistency with the law of reflection.

Suppose a woman does 500 J of work and 9500 J of heat transfer occurs into the environment in the process. (a) What is the decrease in her internal energy, assuming no change in temperature or consumption of food? (That is, there is no other energy transfer.) (b) What is her efficiency?

Answers

Answer:

The change in internal energy and efficiency are 10000 J and 5.26%.

Explanation:

Given that,

Work = 500 J

Heat transfer = 9500 J

(a). We need to calculate the decrease in her internal energy

Using equation of internal energy of a system

[tex]\Delta U=Q-W[/tex]

Q = heat

W = work done

Put the value into the formula

She looses her heat -9500 J

[tex]\Delta U=-9500-500[/tex]

[tex]\Delta U=-10000\ J[/tex]

(b). We need to calculate the efficiency

Using formula of efficiency

[tex]e=\dfrac{W}{Q}[/tex]

[tex]e=\dfrac{500}{9500}[/tex]

[tex]e=0.0526\times100[/tex]

[tex]e=5.26\%[/tex]

Hence, The change in internal energy and efficiency are 10000 J and 5.26%.

Final answer:

By using the first law of thermodynamics, we calculate the decrease in the woman's internal energy to be -10000 J as a result of 500 J of work done and 9500 J of heat transfer into the environment. Her efficiency, defined as the ratio of work done to the absolute value of the decrease in internal energy, is found to be 5%.

Explanation:

Part (a), let's calculate the decrease in her internal energy. We'll use the first law of thermodynamics, ΔU = Q - W, which stipulates that the change in internal energy (ΔU) in a system is equal to the heat transferred into the system (Q) minus the work done by the system (W). Here, the heat transferred is -9500 J (it's negative since it's transferred out of her body). The work done is 500 J. Hence, the decrease in internal energy is ΔU = -9500 J - 500 J = -10000 J.

For part (b), efficiency (η) is defined as the ratio of the useful output to the total input. In this case, the useful output is the work done, and the total input is the absolute value of the decrease in internal energy. Thus, her efficiency is η = 500 J / 10000 J = 5%.

(5-95) Argon steadily flows into a constant pressure heater at 300 K and 100 kPa with a mass flow rate of 6.24 kg/s Heat transfer in the rate of 150 kW is supplied to the argon as it flows through the heater. (a) Determine the argon temperature at the heater exit, in ℃. (b) Determine the argon volume flow rate at the heater exit, in m3/s.

Answers

Final answer:

The argon temperature at the heater exit is determined to be 348.08 ℃, while the argon volume flow rate at the heater exit is calculated to be 3769.23 m³/s.

Explanation:

To determine the argon temperature and volume flow rate at the heater exit, we can use the principles of thermodynamics. The problem states that heat transfer in the rate of 150 kW is supplied to the argon. Since there is no information given about the heater efficiency, we can assume it to be 100%, meaning all the heat is transferred to the argon. Therefore, the heat transfer can be equated to the change in internal energy of the argon, which is given by:

Q = m * Cp * ΔT

Where Q is the heat transfer, m is the mass flow rate, Cp is the specific heat capacity of argon, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Given that Q = 150 kW, m = 6.24 kg/s, and Cp = 0.52 kJ/kg·℃ (specific heat capacity of argon), we can rearrange the equation to solve for ΔT:

ΔT = Q / (m * Cp)

Substituting the values, we have ΔT = (150 * 10³ J/s) / (6.24 kg/s * 0.52 kJ/kg·℃), which equals 48.08 ℃.

Therefore, the argon temperature at the heater exit is 300 ℃ + 48.08 ℃, which equals 348.08 ℃.

To calculate the argon volume flow rate at the heater exit, we can use the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

Where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant, and T is the temperature. Rearranging the equation to solve for V, we have:

V = (nRT) / P

Given that the initial conditions are 300 K and 100 kPa, and a mass flow rate of 6.24 kg/s, we can calculate the number of moles of argon:

n = m / M

Where M is the molar mass of argon. The molar mass of argon is 39.948 g/mol, so n = 6.24 / (39.948 * 10⁻³) = 156.172 mol.

Substituting the values into the ideal gas law equation, we have V = (156.172 mol * 8.314 J/mol·K * 300 K) / 100 kPa. Converting kPa to Pa, we have V = (156.172 mol * 8.314 J/mol·K * 300 K) / 100,000 Pa, which equals 3769.23 m³.

Therefore, the argon volume flow rate at the heater exit is 3769.23 m³/s.

Select the correct statement about the magnitude of the magnification of a concave mirror if the object is beyond the center of curvature C (do > r).

A) The magnitude of the magnification of a concave mirror is equal to 1.
B) The magnitude of the magnification of a concave mirror is greater than 1.
C) The magnitude of the magnification of a concave mirror is less than 1.

Answers

Answer:

c) The magnitude of the magnification of a concave mirror is less than 1

Explanation:

we know

the mirror formula is given as:

[tex]\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}=\frac{2}{r}[/tex]   ..............(1)

also

magnification (m) of mirror is given as:

[tex]m=\frac{-v}{u}[/tex] . ..... (2)

where,

v = image distance

u = object distance

r = Radius of curvature of the mirror

Now

from (2)

[tex]v=-mu[/tex]

substituting in (1), we get

[tex]\frac{1}{u}(\frac{1}{-m}+1)=\frac{2}{r}[/tex]

or

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(1-\frac{1}{m})=\frac{u}{r}[/tex]     ..............(3)

now it is given that object is beyond the center of the the curvature

thus,

⇒[tex]\frac{u}{r}>1[/tex]     ................(4)

comparing the (3) and (4), we have

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(1-\frac{1}{m})>1[/tex]

or

[tex](1-\frac{1}{m})>2[/tex]

or

[tex]-\frac{1}{m}>2-1[/tex]

or

[tex]-\frac{1}{m}>1[/tex]

⇒[tex]m<-1[/tex]

Hence, the magnification is less than 1

Final answer:

The correct statement for the magnitude of magnification of a concave mirror, when the object is beyond the center of curvature, is that it is less than 1, indicating the image formed is real, inverted, and smaller than the object. So the correct option is C.

Explanation:

The correct statement about the magnitude of the magnification of a concave mirror when the object is beyond the center of curvature (do > r) is "The magnitude of the magnification of a concave mirror is less than 1." This is because when an object is located beyond the center of curvature, the image formed by a concave mirror is real, inverted, and smaller than the object. Hence, the magnification, which is the ratio of the image size to the object size, is positive but less than 1.

When dealing with concave mirrors, it is important to note that different object positions result in different types of images, depending on the object's distance relative to the mirror's focal length and center of curvature. If the object distance is greater than the radius of curvature, the image formed is smaller than the object, leading to a magnification of less than 1.

A uniform 8.2 m tall aluminum ladder is leaning against a frictionless vertical wall. The ladder has a weight of 254 N. The ladder slips when it makes a 41.0◦ angle with the horizontal floor. Determine the coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the floor.

Answers

Final answer:

The coefficient of static friction is determined by setting up equations based on the static equilibrium conditions of the ladder leaning against a wall, resulting in a coefficient of approximately 0.869 when using the ladder's angle of 41° with the horizontal.

Explanation:

To determine the coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the floor, we can analyze the forces acting on the ladder at the point of slipping. The forces involved in this problem are the weight of the ladder (W), the normal force exerted by the floor (N), the static frictional force (f), and the force exerted by the wall, which is horizontal due to the frictionless contact (H).

The ladder makes a 41.0° angle with the horizontal floor (θ), so we can use trigonometry and Newton's laws to set up equations. First, the sum of vertical forces must be zero, as the ladder is not moving vertically:

N = W * cos(θ)

Next, the sum of horizontal forces must be zero, as the ladder is not moving horizontally:

f = H

Now, since the wall is frictionless, the horizontal force the wall exerts on the ladder is equal to the horizontal component of the ladder's weight:

H = W * sin(θ)

At the point of slipping, the static frictional force (f) is at its maximum value and is given by:

f = μ * N

Using the fact that f = H at the point of slipping, we can solve for the coefficient of static friction (μ) using the following equation:

μ = W * sin(θ) / (W * cos(θ))

μ = tan(θ)

Substitute the value of θ = 41.0° into the equation:

μ = tan(41.0°) ≈ 0.869

Therefore, the coefficient of static friction is approximately 0.869.

A hydraulic lift is used to raise an automobile of mass 1510 kg. The radius of the shaft of the lift is 8.0 cm and that of the piston is 1.0 cm. How much force must be applied to the piston to raise the automobile?\

Answers

Answer:

applied force on piston is 302.308163 N

Explanation:

Given data

mass = 1510 kg

weight = 1510 × 9.81 = 14813.1 N

radius = 8 cm

piston =  1.0 cm

to find out

force

solution

we will apply here pascal principal i.e

weight of automobile / area 1  = applied force on piston / area 2

so applied force on piston = weight of automobile × area 2  / area 1

and we know that areas is proportional to square of diameter

so area 2  / area 1 = (0.01/0.08)²

so  applied force on piston = weight of automobile × (0.01/0.08)²

applied force on piston = 14813.1  × (0.01/0.07)²

applied force on piston is 302.308163 N

Final answer:

The force necessary to raise the automobile using the hydraulic lift can be calculated using Pascal's Principle and the areas of the piston and the shaft. After calculating these, it is found that approximately 231 Newtons of force is needed to lift the car.

Explanation:

In the hydraulic lift, the force applied on the smaller piston is transmitted to the larger piston. This is based on Pascal's Principle that states that a change in pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted undiminished to all portions of the fluid and to the walls of its container. The force necessary to lift the car can be calculated using this principle and the formula F1/F2 = A1/A2, where F is the force and A is the area of the pistons.

First, we need to calculate the areas of the pistons. The area of a circle is given by the formula A = πr^2 where r is the radius of the circle. Plugging in the given values, A1 (piston) = π*(1cm)^2 = π cm^2 and A2 (shaft) = π*(8 cm)^2 = 64π cm^2.

The force on the larger piston (F2), which is the weight of the car, can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the car by gravitational acceleration F2 = m*g, with m = 1510 kg and g = 9.8 m/s^2. Hence, F2 is roughly 14798 Newtons. Therefore, using the formula F1/F2 = A1/A2 we can solve for F1: F1 = F2 * (A1/A2) = 14798N * (1/64) = approx 231N.

So, to lift the automobile using the hydraulic lift, a force of approximately 231 Newtons must be applied to the piston.

A battery has an emf of 15.0 V. The terminal voltage of the battery is 12.2 V when it is delivering 14.0 W of power to an external load resistor R. (a) What is the value of R?
(b) What is the internal resistance of the battery?

Answers

Final answer:

The external resistance R is approximately 10.63 Ohms while the internal resistance of the battery is approximately 2.43 Ohms.

Explanation:

This problem pertains to the principles of electric circuits, namely Ohm's Law (V = IR) and power (P = VI). To solve this, we'll first compute the resistance R of the external load and then calculate the internal resistance (r) of the battery.

(a) We begin by using the power formula P = VI, rearranging to find resistance R: P/V = I. So, the current I flowing through the circuit is 14.0 W/12.2 V which equals to about 1.148 A. Then, we apply Ohm's Law to get R = V/I, which results in: R = 12.2 V /1.148 A = 10.63 Ω.

(b) The difference between the emf (ε) and the terminal voltage (Vt) gives the voltage drop across the internal resistance (i.e., ε - Vt = Ir). Thus, r = (ε - Vt) / I = (15V - 12.2V) / 1.148 A = 2.43 Ω.

Two horizontal pipes are the same length, but pipe B has twice the diameter of pipe A. Water undergoes viscous flow in both pipes, subject to the same pressure difference across the lengths of the pipes. If the flow rate in pipe A is Q = , what is the flow rate in pipe B?

Answers

Answer:

flow rate in pipe B is 16 times the flow in pipe A

Explanation:

According to the poiseuille's law, flow rate  is is given as

[tex]Q = \frac{ \pi Pr^{4}}{8\eta*L}[/tex]

Flow rate  in the pipe will remain same as above i.e,

[tex]Q_{A} = \frac{\pi Pr^{4}}{8\eta*L}[/tex]

Flow in the pipe be will be

As diameter OF PIPE B is doubled

AND length of both pipes remained same

[tex]Q_{B} = \frac{\pi P(2r)^{4}}{8\eta*L}[/tex]

          [tex]= \frac {16\pi P(r)^{4}} {8\eta*L}}[/tex]

          so we have

flow rate in pipe B is 16 times the flow rate  in pipe A

Final answer:

The flow rate in pipe B is four times larger than the flow rate in pipe A.

Explanation:

The flow rate in pipe B can be determined using the continuity equation, which states that the flow rate must be the same at all points along the pipe. The equation is given as Q = Av, where Q is the flow rate, A is the cross-sectional area, and v is the average velocity.

Since pipe B has twice the diameter of pipe A, its cross-sectional area is four times larger. Therefore, the flow rate in pipe B will be four times larger than the flow rate in pipe A.

So, if the flow rate in pipe A is Q, then the flow rate in pipe B is 4Q.

[tex]V=2.50 m \cdot 5.50 m \cdot 3.00 m =41.3 m^3[/tex]

Now we  can find the mass of the air by using

[tex]m=dV[/tex]

where

[tex]d=1.29 g/dm^3[/tex] is the density of the air

[tex]V=41.3 m^3 = 41,300 dm^3[/tex] is the volume of the room

Substituting,

[tex]m=(1.29)(41300)=5.32\cdot 10^4 g[/tex]

Final answer:

The mass of the air in a room with dimensions 2.50 m x 5.50 m x 3.00 m and an air density of 1.29 g/dm³ is calculated to be 53.2 kg.

Explanation:

The mass of the air in the room can be calculated by using the formula for density, which is mass (mass) equals density (density) times volume (volume), or m = ρV. Given that the density of air is 1.29 g/dm³, first we need to convert the measurements of the room to dm³ (decimeters cubed) as the given room dimensions are in meters. The volume of the room is 2.50 m x 5.50 m x 3.00 m which equals 41.25 m³. Converting from cubic meters to cubic decimeters results in 41,250 dm³ (1 m³ = 1,000 dm³). Therefore, the mass of air is calculated as 1.29 g/dm³ * 41,250 dm³, which equals 53,212.5 grams or 53.2 kg.

A grinding wheel with a mass of 10.50 kg and a radius of 0.55 m is initially at rest. What angular momentum will the wheel have 9.50 s after a 7.50 N·m torque is applied to it.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]L_f = 71.25 kg m^2/s[/tex]

Explanation:

As we know by Newton's law of rotational motion that Rate of change in angular momentum is total torque on the system

So here we have

[tex]\tau = \frac{\Delta L}{\Delta t}[/tex]

here we can say it

[tex]L_f - L_i = \tau \Delta t[/tex]

so final angular momentum of the disc is given by the equation

[tex]L_f = L_i + \tau \Delta t[/tex]

now we know that

[tex]\tau = 7.50 Nm[/tex]

time interval is given as

[tex]\Delta t = 9.50 s[/tex]

since it is initially at rest so initial angular momentum is ZERO

so we have

[tex]L_f = 0 + (7.50)(9.50)[/tex]

[tex]L_f = 71.25 kg m^2/s[/tex]
