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.

1. the thermal energy is conserved

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

The Special Olympics raises money through "plane pull" events in which teams of 25 people compete to see who can pull a 74,000 k

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

28716.4740661 N

1.2131147541 m/s

51.2474965841%

Explanation:

m = Mass of plane = 74000 kg

s = Displacement = 3.7 m

f = Frictional force = 14000 N

t = Time taken = 6.1 s

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 3.7=0\times 6.1+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 6.1^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{3.7\times 2}{6.1^2}\\\Rightarrow a=0.198871271164\ m/s^2$

Force is given by

$F=ma+f\\\Rightarrow F=74000\times 0.198871271164+14000\\\Rightarrow F=28716.4740661\ N$

The force with which the team pulls the plane is 28716.4740661 N

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+0.198871271164\times 6.1\\\Rightarrow v=1.2131147541\ m/s$

The speed of the plane is 1.2131147541 m/s

Kinetic energy is given by

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 74000\times 1.2131147541^2\\\Rightarrow K=54450.9540448\ J$

Work done is given by

$W=Fs\\\Rightarrow W=28716.4740661\times 3.7\\\Rightarrow W=106250.954045\ J$

The fraction is given by

$\dfrac{54450.9540448}{106250.954045}=0.512474965841$

The teams 51.2474965841% of the work goes to kinetic energy of the plane.

A student examines a 20-meter long rectangular stream channel and takes the following measurements: width of stream = 4 meters,

Scrat [10]

Answer:

The discharge of the stream at this location is 40 cubic meters per second.

Explanation:

The discharge is the volume flow rate of the water in the stream. For this purpose we can use the following formula:

Discharge = Volume Flow Rate = (Cross-Sectional Area)(Velocity of Stream)

Volume Flow Rate = (Width of Stream)(Depth of Stream)(Velocity of Stream)

Volume Flow Rate = (4 meters)(2 meters)(5 meters per second)

<u>Volume Flow Rate = 40 cubic meters per second</u>

Therefore, the discharge of the stream at this location is found to be <u>40 cubic meters per second</u>

This result shows that 40 cubic meters volume of water passes or discharges through this point in a time of one second. Hence, this is called the volume flow rate or the discharge of the stream.

A uniform thin wire is bent into a quarter-circle of radius a = 20.0 cm, and placed in the first quadrant. Determine the coordin

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

$r_{cm}=[12.73,12.73]cm$

Explanation:

The general equation to calculate the center of mass is:

$r_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits {r} \, dm$

Any differential of mass can be calculated as:

$dm = \lambda*a*d\theta$ Where "a" is the radius of the circle and λ is the linear density of the wire.

The linear density is given by:

$\lambda=M/L=M/(a*\pi/2)=\frac{2M}{a\pi}$

So, the differential of mass is:

$dm = \frac{2M}{a\pi}*a*d\theta$

$dm = \frac{2M}{\pi}*d\theta$

Now we proceed to calculate X and Y coordinates of the center of mass separately:

$X_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0 {a*cos\theta*2M/\pi} \, d\theta$

$Y_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0 {a*sin\theta*2M/\pi} \, d\theta$

Solving both integrals, we get:

$X_{cm}=2*a/\pi=12.73cm$

$Y_{cm}=2*a/\pi=12.73cm$

Therefore, the position of the center of mass is:

$r_{cm}=[12.73,12.73]cm$

A) 50 cm

B) 10000 cm/s

Explanation

Step 1

If you know the distance between nodes and antinodes then use this equation:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=D \\ \text{where}\lambda\text{ is the wavelength} \\ D\text{ is the distance betw}een\text{ nodes} \end{gathered}$

then, let
