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

what are the statements? x

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft
