How can the second law still be true when
there are processes that DECREASE the
amount of disorder?
(Ex. laying an egg, a strawberry growing,
water freezing to ice)
These are not closed systems. Disorder
was increased somewhere else so that
something without disorder was created.
Don't drop an egg because the second law
says that you can't clean it up
This proves that the second law is not true
all the time

Use the empirical rule. the mean speed of a sample of vehicles along a stretch of highway is 70 miles per hour, with a standard deviation of 4 miles per hour. estimate the percent of vehicles whose speeds are between 66 miles per hour and 74 miles per hour. (assume the data set has a bell-shaped distribution.)

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 162 ft, then climbs 127 ft at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 127 ft at an angle of 46.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)

To understand the behavior of the electric field at the surface of a conductor, and its relationship to surface charge on the conductor. a conductor is placed in an external electrostatic field. the external field is uniform before the conductor is placed within it. the conductor is completely isolated from any source of current or charge. part a: which of the following describes the electric field inside this conductor? it is in the same direction as the original external field. it is in the opposite direction from that of the original external field. it has a direction determined entirely by the charge on its surface. it is always zero. part b: the charge density inside the conductor is: 0non-zero; but uniformnon-zero; non-uniforminfinite part c: assume that at some point just outside the surface of the conductor, the electric field has magnitude e and is directed toward the surface of the conductor. what is the charge density η on the surface of the conductor at that point? express your answer in terms of e and ϵ0
