The second law of thermodynamics establishes restrictions on the flow of thermal energy between two bodies. This law states that the energy does not flow spontaneously from a low temperature object T1, to another object that is at a high temperature T2.
For example. Suppose you place your cell phone on the table. Your phone is at a temperature of 40 ° C and the table is at 19 ° C. Then, it is impossible for the table to spontaneously transfer its thermal energy to the telephone, and so that the table gets colder and the telephone warmer.
Finally we can say that the correct option is B: From the hotter object to the cooler object
A spring is an object that can be deformed by a force and then return to its original shape after the force is removed.
Springs come in a huge variety of different forms, but the simple metal coil spring is probably the most familiar. Springs are an essential part of almost all moderately complex mechanical devices; from ball-point pens to racing car engines.
There is nothing particularly magical about the shape of a coil spring that makes it behave like a spring. The 'springiness', or more correctly, the elasticity is a fundamental property of the wire that the spring is made from. A long straight metal wire also has the ability to ‘spring back’ following a stretching or twisting action. Winding the wire into a spring just allows us to exploit the properties of a long piece of wire in a small space. This is much more convenient for building mechanical devices.
Answer:
0.6983 m/s
Explanation:
k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m
L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m
L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m
x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m
m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg
v = speed of the mass
Using conservation of energy
Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy
(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²
m v² = k x²
(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²
v = 0.6983 m/s
