The second law of thermodynamics states that the can never decrease over time.
The total energy of a system remains constant and it does not change in ideal cases.
From the statements given in the question, the correct answer is the first statement.

First law is Conservation of Energy
Second is that entropy of an isolated system will always increase with time.
Entropy is the change of disorder through time. The best statement which relates to the 2nd law is C. Thermal energy flows from areas of higher to lower temperature

Two point charges are 10.0cm apart and have charges of 2.0uC and -2.0uC, respectively. What is the magnitude of the electric fie

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The electric field generated by a point charge is given by:
$E= k_e \frac{Q}{r^2}$
where
$k_e = 8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2}$ is the Coulomb's constant
Q is the charge
r is the distance from the charge

We want to know the net electric field at the midpoint between the two charges, so at a distance of r=5.0 cm=0.05 m from each of them.

Let's calculate first the electric field generated by the positive charge at that point:
$E_1=k_e \frac{Q_1}{r^2}=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2}) \frac{(2.0 \cdot 10^{-6} C)}{(0.05 m)^2} =+7.19 \cdot 10^6 N/C$
where the positive sign means its direction is away from the charge.

while the electric field generated by the negative charge is:
$E_2=k_e \frac{Q_1}{r^2}=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2}) \frac{(-2.0 \cdot 10^{-6} C)}{(0.05 m)^2} =-7.19 \cdot 10^6 N/C$
where the negative sign means its direction is toward the charge.

If we assume that the positive charge is on the left and the negative charge is on the right, we see that E1 is directed to the right, and E2 is directed to the right as well. This means that the net electric field at the midpoint between the two charges is just the sum of the two fields:
$E_{tot} =E_1 + E_2 = 7.19 \cdot 10^6 N/C+7.19 \cdot 10^6 N/C=1.44 \cdot 10^7 N/C$

What phase difference between two otherwise identical harmonic waves, moving in the same direction along a stretched string, wil

lora16 [44]

Answer:

$\theta=145$

Explanation:

The amplitude of he combined wave is:

$B=2Acos(\theta/2)\\$

A, is the amplitude from the identical harmonic waves

B, is the amplitude of the resultant wave

θ, is the phase, between the waves

The amplitude of the combined wave must be 0.6A:

$0.6A=2Acos(\theta/2)\\ cos(\theta/2)=0.3\\\theta/2=72.5\\\theta=145$

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Two long parallel wires each carry the same current I in the same direction. The magnetic field in wire 1 is given by :

$B_1=\dfrac{\mu_oI_1}{2\pi r}$

Magnetic force acting in wire 2 due to 1 is given by :

$F_{2}=I_2lB_1$

$F_2=\dfrac{\mu_oI_1I_2 l}{2\pi r}$

Similarly, force acting in wire 1 is given by :

$F_1=\dfrac{\mu_oI_1I_2 l}{2\pi r}$ According to third law of motion, the force acting in wire 1 will be in opposite direction to wire 2 as :

$F_2=-F_1$

So, the total magnetic field at the point P midway between the wires is in what direction will be zero as the the direction of forces are in opposite direction.
