![]() Because the change in entropy is Q/ T, there is a larger change in Δ S Δ S at lower temperatures (smaller T). This is because entropy increases for heat transfer of energy from hot to cold ( Figure 12.9). An important implication of this law is that heat transfers energy spontaneously from higher- to lower-temperature objects, but never spontaneously in the reverse direction. The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of a system either increases or remains constant in any spontaneous process it never decreases. ![]() In the process of picking up the cards, you may have noticed that the amount of work required to restore the cards to an orderly state in the deck is much greater than the amount of work required to toss the cards and create the disorder. In the game of 52 pickup, the prankster tosses an entire deck of playing cards onto the floor, and you get to pick them up. Have you ever played the card game 52 pickup? If so, you have been on the receiving end of a practical joke and, in the process, learned a valuable lesson about the nature of the universe as described by the second law of thermodynamics. Using temperatures from another, nonabsolute scale, such as Fahrenheit or Celsius, will give the wrong answer. The Kelvin scale is an absolute temperature scale that is measured in terms of the number of degrees above absolute zero. The equation for the change in entropy, Δ S Δ S, isĪbsolute temperature is the temperature measured in Kelvins. The unavailability of energy is important in thermodynamics in fact, the field originated from efforts to convert heat to work, as is done by engines. Consequently, not all energy transferred by heat can be converted into work, and some of it is lost in the form of waste heat-that is, heat that does not go toward doing work. Hence, entropy always tends to increase.Īlthough all forms of energy can be used to do work, it is not possible to use the entire available energy for work. The flow of any energy is always from high to low. ![]() It measures how much energy has been dispersed in a process. Entropy can be thought of as a measure of the dispersal of energy. When a hot object is placed in the room, it quickly spreads heat energy in all directions. ![]() When water in a dish is set on a counter, it eventually evaporates, the individual molecules spreading out in the surrounding air. For instance, if a car tire is punctured, air disperses in all directions. However, we see examples of entropy in our everyday lives. The meaning of entropy is difficult to grasp, as it may seem like an abstract concept. ![]()

![]() This puts downward pressure on feeder cattle prices although the impact is delayed as it takes at least 6-8 months before the potential calf will reach the feedlot. Higher corn prices increase the cost of gain in feedlots. Higher feeder cattle prices create incentives for more calves to be brought to market and bred cows are the quickest way to do so. The feeder cattle and corn markets are the two largest drivers of bred cow prices. Selling the same quality, age, and pregnancy age results in a difference of $138 per cow.Ĭurrent market conditions will also play a role in the price of bred cows. Prices are lowest in the summer and fall months in areas that are heavy spring calvers as producers are culling their herds and determining which heifers to be retained – a 4% discount ($1,104). Prices peak in early March at approximately an 8% premium ($1,242). The highest premiums are in February and March as many producers are purchasing cows that are on the same calving cycle in anticipation of summer grass and pastures. ![]() ![]() Producers looking to buy bred cows in the late winter or early spring should expect to pay a premium. Selling this same bred cow at different times of the year will impact the price received. These premiums and discounts exist as there less risk of losing a calf as age increases, lower production costs before the calf’s birth, and revenue is received more quickly when late-gestating cows are purchased. Discounts and premiums are nearly linear between a 4% premium ($1,196) for an eight-month-old bred cow, a 5% discount ($1,092) for a 4-month-old bred cow, and a 12% discount ($1,012) for a one-month-old bred cow. Similarly, the closer the cow is to calving, the more expensive the bred cow becomes relative to a six-month-old bred cow. Producers considering marketing older cows as bred should acknowledge the heavy discounts assigned as age increases. A four-year-old bred cow would cost $1,150 (0% discount), a seven-year-old bred cow would cost $1,035 (10% discount), and a ten-year-old bred cow would cost $920 (20% discount). Producers selling cows older than this should expect to receive a discount and the discounts tend to decrease almost linearly from 0%-20% as cows age. ![]() February 2023 prices for this type of cow in Oklahoma City, OK is $1,150 but has averaged $870 over the past three years. To illustrate how these factors could impact producers' decisions to either buy or sell bred cows this year, I walk through several scenarios assuming we have a three-year-old bred cow that is six months pregnant, is a medium/large 1-2, and black hided. One study using Oklahoma City bred heifer and bred cow sales from 2000-2015 estimated the premiums and discounts for each of these factors in the bred cow market (see Mitchell et al. Age, weight, months bred, genetics and market conditions are the primary drivers of bred cow prices. However, the national bred cow price masks several factors that impact price. There is a premium due to the longer useful life of the cow in the herd but smaller than expected due to potential issues with calving which can occur with first calf heifers. The premium is the widest in the Spring (March-May) and lowest in the Fall (September-November). In other words, bred heifers are on average 2.5% more expensive than bred cows. For example, the price ratio of bred heifers to bred cows has averaged 2.5% over the last 5 years. Bred heifers receive a premium over bred cows. The quickest way for these producers to increase the feeder cattle supply is through the addition of bred cows or bred heifers. There will be producers who have feed resources and believe profits are to be had in 20. For Northern Plains cattle producers, it may get a bit tougher before things improve from a feed perspective. If this weather pattern does materialize the change will benefit the Southern Plains with a cool and wet spring/summer whereas the Northern Plains generally stay dry in the summer before a cool/wet fall. Much has been said about the ENSO weather patterns changing this year. Some producers have already run out of hay as heavy snow has limited winter grazing and persistent drought conditions shortened the grazing season and reduced overall hay production. Higher prices for feeder cattle are expected but higher feed costs, especially hay, and other inputs are limiting the profit potential. Continued liquidation in 2023 will depend on the profit margins producers expect to receive. Feeder cattle supplies will be reduced nationally in 2023. The USDA Cattle Inventory report showed a 4% reduction in beef cows, a 6% decrease in heifers held back for retention, and a 5% reduction in heifers expected to calve this year (USDA-NASS 2023). ![]() This article was first published by "In the Cattle Markets" on Feb. ![]() ![]() The reel was entirily taken apart and cleaned with cleaning agent, dried and the regreased/oiled. We caught halibut up to 60-70 lb with this reel with no problems at all. The reel was preserviced out the box before use, and I have not run into any problems yet. So I have used this reel for a two week trip this summer and fished it every day. ![]() On the left you see the spool thumb release that fits snugly inside the "horseshoe" freespool engager.

I really like the thumb release free spool - like a baitcaster. Here goes This is a small size star drag reel costing 250-300 usd. ![]() This is the first time I have tried their star drag model. The maxel reels are way cheaper in price so I have sold my jm´s and replaced them with maxel. I still believe that these reels are the ferraris of the convention reels out there with their twin drag constuction, dual AR bearings and dog/dogs and more. except a few tweeks on its cosmetics that includes different handle, t-bar, drag lever. However the powerspell series reels and Maxels transformer series reels are identical on the inside. For those not acquainted with maxel reels and gear Maxel I believe is a chinese brand who is either hardcopying jigging master or is a rebranded reel from a oem company which means that JM powerspell reels are aswell.
