Entropy is often called “time’s arrow” because it tells usin which direction natural processes occur. If a moviewere run backward, name some processes that you mightsee that would tell you that time was “running backward
The temperature in the deep interiors of some giant molecular clouds in the Milky Way galaxy is 50 K. Compare the amount of energy that would have to be transferred to this environment to the amount that would have to be transferred to a room temperature environment to bring about a 7.7 J/K increase in the entropy of the universe in each case.

What is the time rate of change of the universe's entropy for this process?arrow_forwardIt can be said that entropy is the greatness that provides us with information on the possibility of occurrence of a particular process and the quantification of it, whether or not a transformation can occur and what direction it occurs in. Time goes in a one-way direction, and as a result,some events have order to happen, for example, it is impossible to recover the heat dissipated to the environment as in the case of steam generators, some phenomena oneway.Which of the statements below represents an appropriate sentence for the concept of Entropy.(alternative 1:) time always runs from the past to the future;(alternative 2:) Physical reality always seeks a state of greater energy;(alternative 3:) the system naturally changes from a more orderly state to a more disordered one, from the least likely to the most likely;(alternative 4:) the system naturally changes from a more disordered state to a more orderly one, from the least likely to the most likely;(alternative 5:) None of the…arrow_forwardOn a cold day, 24500 J of heat leaks out of a house.

What is the total change in entropy of the universe due to this heat transfer alone, assuming an average indoor temperature of 24.0°C and an average outdoor temperature of 5.05°C?(b)This large change in entropy implies a large amount of energy has become unavailable to do work. Where do we find more energy when such energy is lost to us?arrow_forwardIf energy is always conserved, never created or destroyed, then why do most of the machines in our lives eventually stop working and have to be replaced?

- A bit of computer memory is some physical object that can be in two different states, often interpreted as 0 and 1. A byte is eight bits, a kilobyte is 1024 (= 210) bytes, a megabyte is 1024 kilobytes, and a gigabyte is 1024 megabytes.

Is this amount of heat significant?arrow_forwardHow is the total work done by the reversible cycle related to the entropy change of the Universe.arrow_forwardA student rolls 2 dice (an object that is a cube with faces numbered 1-6). The dice are "fair," meaning that there is an equal chance that each lands on any of its 6 faces. Determine the entropy of the macrostate in which the sum of all the top dice faces equals 4.
