It can be shown that the change in entropy in heating or cooling a sample is given by the relation
= mc ln
where m is the mass of the sample, c is the specific heat of the sample, and
and
are the final and initial temperatures respectively. What is the change in entropy when 10.0 grams of lead with a specific heat of 0.452 J/gm K is heated from 10.0
C to 50.0

How does a rocket take off?
A) Its rocket engines push against the launch pad, propelling the rocket upward. B) It converts mass-energy to kinetic energy. C) It achieves lift from its wings in the same way that airplanes do. D) Hot gas shoots out from the back of the rocket and, by conservation of momentum, the rocket moves in the opposite direction. E) The hot rocket exhaust expands the air beneath the rocket, propelling it forward.
