(A) A device that converts heat into work with 100% efficiency

It clearly violates the second law of thermodynamics because it warns that while all work can be turned into heat, not all heat can be turned into work. Therefore, despite the innumerable efforts, the efficiencies of the bodies have only been able to reach 60% at present.

Evidence of wave theory light​
stira [4]

All of these things were seen in formal experiments by the 19th century. But some of them are easy to see in your own home. It's obvious that light can reflect - you just have to look in a mirror. Light bounces off the mirror and goes into your eye so you can see yourself. It's also obvious that light can refract: All you have to do is put a spoon in a large glass of water and watch how the spoon appears to bend.

That happens because the light is bending as it moves between air and water. Both of these things can be seen even more clearly in a laboratory using beams of light or lasers.

Many of today’s mathematicians use computers to test cases that ___
vekshin1

Many of today’s mathematicians use computers to test cases that are either too time-consuming or involve too many variables to test manually, allowing the exploration of theoretical issues that were impossible to test a generation ago.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

One of the most useful inventions in scientific world are the computers. We can use different programming language and create programs in them. These programs help other to solve difficult problems. Most of the theoretical problems in science can be solved by using these programming features in computer within a specific time limit.

Otherwise, earlier mathematician used to take months to solve a complex mathematical problem manually, but now with the inclusion of computers, the mathematician can solve the problems containing more number of variables or other theoretical issues.

In a digital multimeter, what changes inside the meter when you push the button to change from 200v range to the 20v range? by w
charle [14.2K]
So we want to know what changes inside the multimeter when we change the voltage range from 200 V to  20 V, by what factor and does it increase or decrease. What we want when trying to measure the voltage with a multimeter is that a minimal current passes trough the mulitmeter so when we change the voltage range, we decrease the resistance by a factor of 10 because the voltage is decreased by a factor of 10.

What part causes the disc brake caliper piston to retract when the brakes are released?
Orlov [11]
The part that causes the disc caliper piston to retract when the brakes are released is the square-cut O-ring.
The square cut seal is the most important part of a disc brake caliper, for keeping the brake behind the piston so that when you step on the brake pedal, it releases a pressure that applied to the piston which in return applies the pad to the rotor.
