(a)
Answer to Problem 1Q
The force the person exerts on the wall and the force the wall exerts on the person is an action-reaction pair.
Explanation of Solution
Action – reaction pair of forces always acts on separate object.
When a person pushes on a wall, the wall pushes back on the person. Here the person exerts force on the wall and wall in turn exerts force on the person. The force exerted by the person on the wall is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force exerted by the wall on the person and they acts on different objects.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the force the person exerts on the wall and the force the wall exerts on the person is an action-reaction pair.

You can melt this ice and then vaporize it all at 0 C. The melting and vaporization are done reversibly into a balloon held at a pressure of 0.250 bar. Here are some facts about water you may wish to know. The density of liquid water at 0 C is 1 g/cm³. The density of ice at 0 C is 0.917 g/cm³. The enthalpy of vaporization of liquid water is 2.496 kJ/gram and the enthalpy of fusion of solid water is 333.55 J/gram.arrow_forwardConsider 1 mole of supercooled water at -10°C.

Assuming that AvapH and AvapS stay constant at their values at 80.09°C, calculate the value of AvapG at 75.0°C, 80.09°C, and 85.0°C. Hint: Remember that the liquid and vapor phases will be in equilibrium at the normal boiling point.arrow_forward3. The entropy of an ideal gas is S = Nkg In V. Entropy is a state function rather than a path function, and in this problem, you will show an example of the entropy change for an ideal gas being the same when you go between the same two states by two different pathways. A. Express ASV = S2 (V2) - S₁(V1), the change in entropy upon changing the volume from V₁to V2, at fixed particle number N and energy, U. B. Express ASN = S₂(N₂) - S₁ (N₁), the change in entropy upon changing the particle number from N₁ to N2, at fixed volume V and energy U. C. Write an expression for the entropy change, AS, for a two-step process (V₁, N₁) → (V2, N₁) → (V2, N₂) in which the volume changes first at fixed particle number, then the particle number changes at fixed volume. Again, assume energy is constant.arrow_forwardPlease don't use Chatgpt will upvote and give handwritten solutionarrow_forward

You find a campground that is near an outcropping of ice. Part of the outcropping forms a feta=51.5* slopeup that leads to a verticle cliff. You decide that this is an idea place to hang your food supply out of bear reach. You put all of your food into a burlap sack, tie a rope to the sack, and then tie a bag full of rocks to the other end of the rope to act as an anchor. You currently have 18.5 kg of food left for the rest of your trip, so you put 18.5 kg of rocks in the anchor bag to balance it out. what happens when you lower the food bag over the edge and let go of the anchor bag? Determine the acceleration magnitude a of the two-bag system when you let go of the anchor bag?arrow_forward
