A scientist is considering polonium-210 as an energy source for a thermoelectric device that will produce 140 W of power for a spacecraft. Each atom of polonium-210 will naturally emit a high-energy alpha particle with a mass of 6.64 × 10–27 kg. Will a single gram of polonium-210 that produces 1.80 × 10–3 J every hour be enough to power the spacecraft?

A. No, it will not power the spacecraft because power and energy are equivalent.
B. Yes, it will power the spacecraft because power and energy are equivalent.
C. No, it will not power the spacecraft because power is computed as energy per second.
D. Yes, it will power the spacecraft because power is computed as energy per second.

100 grams of molten lead (600°c) is used to make musket balls. if the lead shot is allowed to cool to room temperature (21°c), what is the change in entropy (in j/k) of the lead? (for the specific heat of molten and solid lead use 1.29 j/g⋅°c; the latent heat of fusion and the melting point of lead are 2.45 × 104 j/kg and 327°c, respectively.)
