Perpetual motion machines have fascinated people especially inventors for hundreds of years before the laws of thermodynamics be

came known. Ideally once energy is added to start a perpetual motion machine in motion, the machine would continue to operate indefinitely. Using a law of thermodynamics, explain why such a machine cannot be produced

Given the fact that energy conversion is not entirely efficient, it is impossible to produce a perpetual motion machine.

<h3>What is a perpetual motion machine?</h3>

The perpetual motion machine in one that is able to work continuously without stopping. This would mean that the efficiency of this machine must that the machine is 100% efficient which violates the second law of thermodynamics.

Thus, given the fact that energy conversion is not entirely efficient and energy looses cause machines not function effectively, it is impossible to produce a perpetual motion machine.

Explain how heat transfer is occurring through convection, radiation AND conduction in this picture.
frosja888 [35]

A cup of tea/coffee transfers heat via conduction, convection and radiation.

Conduction:

  • Heat transfer from a coffee to the spoon is in direct contact
  • Inner part of the tea cup against hot liquid will transfer heat to the outer part and saucer.

Convection:

Movement of molecules within the coffee. Hot molecules of the tea at the middle of the drink will be eventually make their way to the outer part of the drink near the tea cup, where they will loose their heat.

Radiation:

Thermal radiation is the loss of heat from a solid object in to atmosphere via the release of electromagnetic radiation. So hot outer edge of the teacup loss the energy to its surroundings via thermal radiation.
