Answer:

Frequency is the reciprocal of the period. The period is 5 seconds, so the frequency is 1/(5 s) = 0.20 Hz.

Explanation: yes

It is not possible to convert work entirely into heat. It is impossible to transfer heat from a cooler to a hotter body. The sec

Irina-Kira [14]

Complete Question:

Which one of the following is a

true statement?

Group of answer choices.

A) The second law of thermodynamics is a consequence of the first law of thermodynamics.

B) It is possible for heat to flow spontaneously from a hot body to a cold one or from a cold one

to a hot one, depending on whether or not the process is reversible or irreversible.

C) It is not possible to convert work entirely into heat.

D) It is impossible to transfer heat from a cooler to a hotter body.

E) All of these statements are false.

Answer:

E) All of these statements are false.

Explanation:

All of the following statements are false;

I. The second law of thermodynamics is a consequence of the first law of thermodynamics. The second law of thermodynamics is about a physical quantity known as entropy while the first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can only be transformed from one form to another.

II. It is possible for heat to flow spontaneously from a hot body to a cold one or from a cold one

to a hot one, depending on whether or not the process is reversible or irreversible. According to the second law of thermodynamics this is false due to the entropy.

III. It is not possible to convert work entirely into heat. It is possible to completely convert work into heat because it involves transferring energy.

IV. It is impossible to transfer heat from a cooler to a hotter body.

A charge of 80 coulombs passes through a circuit in 5 seconds. What is the current through the circuit?

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

I = 16amp

Explanation:

Charge coulomb ( Q ) = It

Where I =current in ampere

t = time = 5 seconds

80 = I × 5

I = 80/5

I = 16amp

The current through the circuit will be I = 16amp

Faraday's Law states that the negative of the time rate of change of the flux of the magnetic field through a surface is equal t

MrRa [10]

Answer:

(C). The line integral of the magnetic field around a closed loop

Explanation:

Faraday's law states that induced emf is directly proportional to the time rate of change of magnetic flux.

This can be written mathematically as;

$EMF = -\frac{\delta \phi _B}{\delta t}$

$(\frac{\delta \phi _B}{\delta t} )$ is the rate of change of the magnetic flux through a surface bounded by the loop.

ΔФ = BA

where;

ΔФ is change in flux

B is the magnetic field

A is the area of the loop

Thus, according to Faraday's law of electric generators

∫BdL = $\frac{\delta \phi _B}{\delta t}$ = EMF

Therefore, the line integral of the magnetic field around a closed loop is equal to the negative of the rate of change of the magnetic flux through the area enclosed by the loop.

The correct option is "C"

(C). The line integral of the magnetic field around a closed loop
