MCQ
When you make ice cubes, the entropy of water
- Adoes not change
- Bincreases
- ✓decreases
- Dmay either increase or decrease depending
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
decreases
c
$dS = \frac{dQ}{T}$ In freezing process $dQ$ is negative so entropy decreases.
$dS = \frac{dQ}{T}$ In freezing process $dQ$ is negative so entropy decreases.

Two waves having equations
→${x_1} = a\sin (\omega \,t + {\phi _1})$, ${x_2} = a\sin \,(\omega \,t + {\phi _2})$
If in the resultant wave the frequency and amplitude remain equal to those of superimposing waves. Then phase difference between them is
A small ring is rolling without slipping on the circumference of a large bowl as shown below in the figure. The ring is moving down at $P_{1}$, comes down to the lower most point $P_{2}$ and is climbing up at $P_{3}$. Let $v _{ CM }$ denote the velocity of the centre of mass of the ring. Choose the correct statement regarding the frictional force on the ring.edClass-Data Entry
