Physics

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics states that heat flows from hot body to a cold body.

A body becomes hot when we heat it at high temperature. Hence, a hotter body will have more collisions between its molecules and thus, there will be maximum kinetic energy between its molecules. Therefore, when this heat moves to a colder body then the molecules of colder body tend to gain some kinetic energy.

And this transfer of heat continues unless and until the temperature of both bodies become equal.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement from high temperature to low temperature correctly describes how thermal energy tends to spontaneously flow.

The answer is A. Heat flows from high to low. For example, when you put an ice cube in a hot drink, the heat from the drink goes to the ice cube, and that is why it melts.

When waves of equal amplitude from two sources are in phase when they interact, it is called ________.?
8090 [49]
The answer is constructive interference. At the point when two waves meet such that their peaks line up together, then it's called productive obstruction. The subsequent wave has a higher adequacy. In dangerous obstruction, the peak of one wave meets the trough of another, and the outcome is a lower add up to adequacy.
