Answer: work must be done on the system  (Option A)

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics is the fundamental law of nature; it states that energy can be transferred from cold objects to hot objects only, if work is done on the system. If energy is added to the system then as a result the thermal energy would increase. Second law of thermodynamics is used to determine whether a process is spontaneous or not.  Moreover,the second law of thermodynamics is also used in refrigerators.

patriot [66]
<span>3933 watts At 100 C (boiling point of water), it's density is 0.9584 g/cm^3. The volume of water lost is pi * 12.5^2 * 10 = 4908.738521 cm^3 The mass of water boiled off is 4908.738521 * 0.9584 = 4704.534999 grams. Rounding to 4 significant figures gives me 4705 grams of water. The heat of vaporization for water is 2257 J/g. So the total energy applied is 2257 J/g * 4705 g = 10619185 J Now we need to divide that by how many seconds we've spent boiling water. That would be 45 * 60 = 2700 seconds. Finally, the rate of heat transfer in Joules per second will be the total number of joules divided by the total number of seconds. So 10619185 J / 2700 s = 3933 J/s = 3933 (kg m^2/s^2)/s = 3933 (kg m^2/s^3) = 3933 watts</span>

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

112.5 N

Explanation:

50 = GMm/r^2

Let F be the new force of attraction

F/50 = ( G(3M)(3m)/(2r)^2 ) / (GMm/r^2)

[Elimiating G,M,m,r]

F = 112.5 N

Two advantages of solar energy over energy from Fossil fuels​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

1)Fuel Sourcing

2)Power Generation

Explanation:

1)Fuel Sourcing : Fossil fuels must be located, excavated and transported before they can be used. These processes are invasive and detrimental to the land through side effects such as erosion as well as ecological and geologic instability. Then the deposit or well is depleted. Energy from the sun is infinite and free. It can be harnessed and turned into power anywhere a solar panel can be mounted.

2)Power Generation: Fossil fuels must be burned to produce electricity. Burning them creates unwanted byproducts that can create air and water pollution and release huge amounts of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.
