Water is placed in a freezer where it becomes a solid and decreases in
entropy. According to the second law of thermodynamics, what allows for
this process to occur?
a. The entropy of the air outside the refrigerator increases more than the
decreasing entropy of the freezing water.
b. As water freezes it expands and takes up more space which actually
increases the entropy of a system.
C. As water freezes it decreases in temperature which actually increases the
entropy of a system.
d. The entropy of the air inside the refrigerator decreases because it is an
isolated system

The pressure increases by 1.0 x 104 n/m^2 for every meter of depth beneath the surface of the ocean. at what depth does the volume of a pyrex (bulk modulus 2.6 x 1010n/m^2) glass cube, 9.8 x 10^−2m on an edge at the ocean's surface, decrease by 7.5 x 10−10m^3? explain the formula beyond this point: p=1.0x10^4, b=2.6x10^10, l=9.8x10^−2, delta v=7.5x10^−10. at some point l needs to be cubed. why p is divided by delta v?

Automobile fuel efficiency is often measured in miles that the car can be driven per gallon of fuel (mpg). heavier cars tend to have lower fuel efficiencies (lower mpg ratings). which variable (weight or fuel efficiency) is most naturally considered the explanatory (predictor) variable in this context?
