<u>Of all the given statements, the following are all true </u>

Usually, when one form of energy is converted to another, no energy is wasted
An organism decays after it dies.
This statement illustrates the second law of thermodynamics.
Potential energy is also known as entropy.

Answers: Option A, D, E and F

Explanation:

Option A says that the energy converts from one to another form but there is no wastage of energy. This is totally justified by the law of energy conservation.
Option B, says that the total energy in the universe of usable form has been gradually decreasing. It is false as the total amount remains constant.
Option D, says the organism decaying process after its death, which is also true and can be seen as the conversion of energy forms.
Option E supports the facts and hence is true.
Option F, says that the entropy is the potential energy which is explained in second law of thermodynamics.

Matter that does not transmit any light.

eduard

Answer:

They all travel at the same speed

Explanation: the speed of light — in a vacuum, but when they come into contact with matter, they slow down. ... Opaque objects transmit little or no visible light, translucent objects transmit some, and transparent objects transmit almost all, which is why we can see through them.

6kg of human blood at a temperature of 65degees celcius is mixed with 4kg of human blood ata temperature of 20 degrees celcius .

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

$T_f=47^{\circ}$

Explanation: Two samples of blood that have different masses and temperatures and are mixed, we have to find the final temperature of the mixture. the final temperature can be found using the following formula:

$T_f=\frac{(m_1\cdot T_1+m_2T_2)}{(m_1+m_2)}\Rightarrow(1)$

(1) Formula basically tells us that the product of mass and temperature remains constant throughout, so the addition of two products of the two separate blood samples would be equal to the product of final temperature and the total mass of the mixture. Mathematically this means that:

$\mleft(m_1+m_2\mright)T_f=(m_1\cdot T_1)+(m_2T_2)$

Using (1) and plugging in the corresponding values, we get the answer as follows:

$\begin{gathered} T_f=\frac{(m_1\cdot T_1+m_2T_2)}{(m_1+m_2)}\Rightarrow(1) \\ m_1=6\operatorname{kg} \\ m_2=4\operatorname{kg} \\ T_1=65^{\circ} \\ T_2=20^{\circ} \\ \therefore\rightarrow \\ T_f=\frac{(6kg\cdot65^{\circ}+4\operatorname{kg}\cdot20^{\circ})}{(6kg+4\operatorname{kg})}=\frac{(390+80)}{10}=\frac{470}{10}=47^{\circ} \\ \therefore\rightarrow \\ T_f=47^{\circ} \end{gathered}$

A steel plate weighing 180 lb with center of gravity at point G is supported by a roller at point A, a bar DE, and a horizontal

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Therefore, the force supported by the hydraulic cylinder is = -70.01 lb

Thus, the force supported by the bar = -233.84 lb

The reaction force supported by the reaction of the roller = 341.31 lb

Explanation:

The attached diagrams is shown in the file below:

From there; taking moments about point A

$\sum M__A }=0$

- 40 (180) - (80) $F_E$ Cos 37° + 55

-7200 + $F_E$ (-80 Cos 37° + 55 sin 37° ) = 0

= - 7200 - 30.79 $F_E$

- 30.79 $F_E$ = 7200

$F_E$ = $-\frac{7200}{30.79}$

$F_E$ = -233.84 lb

Thus, the force supported by the bar = -233.84 lb

Taking the equilibrium of forces in the vertical direction

$\sum f_y = 0$

$F_E$ sin 37 + $F_A$ cos 20 - $F_G$ = 0

- 233.84 sin 37 + $F_A$ cos 20 - 180 = 0

$F_A$ cos 20 = 320.73

$F_A$ = $\frac{320.73}{cos 20}$

$F_A$ = 341.31 lb

The reaction force supported by the reaction of the roller = 341.31 lb

Taking the equilibrium of forces on the horizontal direction.

$\sum f_y = 0$

$F_E$ cos 37 - $F_{CB} + F_A$ sin 20° = 0

-233.84 cos 37 - $F_{CB}$ + 341.31 sin 20° = 0

-186.75 - $F_{CB}$ + 116.74 = 0

- $F_{CB}$ -70.01 = 0

- $F_{CB}$ = 70.01

$F_{CB}$ = - 70.01 lb

Therefore, the force supported by the hydraulic cylinder is = -70.01 lb

What is the difference between a tropical storm and a hurricane

vazorg [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Tropical storm:

The point at which the tropical depression intensifies and can sustain a maximum wind speed in the range of 39-73 mph, it is termed as a tropical storm.

Hurricane:

A hurricane is that type of tropical cyclone which includes with it high speed winds and thunderstorms and the intensity of the sustained wind speed is 74 mph or more than this.

Hurricanes are the most intense tropical cyclones.

The only difference between the tropical storm and hurricane is in the intensity.
