Answer:
The correct answer is "The coffee in the jug has more thermal energy than the coffee in the cup".
Explanation:
First I had to look for the problem to know the possible answers.
In this case, the coffee jug has a large amount of coffee at the same temperature. If we analyze that the decanter and the coffee are at the same temperature, we have a homogeneous thermal system. The cup is at room temperature, so by pouring coffee into it, the temperature of the coffee decreases to balance with the temperature of the cup. At this moment, the temperature of the cup-cafe system is lower than the jug-cafe system.
Thermal energy is the part of the internal energy of an equilibrated thermodynamic system that is proportional to its absolute temperature and increases or decreases by energy transfer.
In this way, we can ensure that the thermal energy of the cup-cafe system is lower than that of the jug-cafe system.
Have a nice day!
False. The element abundant in our body is oxygen and on earth, it is still oxygen. The body is more than 50% water. A water molecule is 11% hydrogen and the rest is oxygen. That is why you can expect oxygen to be abundant in the body. Same is true with the earth. Majority of the oxygen is from the bodies of water the earth is rich of.
There are a number of ways to reduce friction:
Make the surfaces smoother. Rough surfaces produce more friction and smooth surfaces reduce friction. Some swimmers wear suits to reduce underwater resistance. These suits mimic the smooth skin of sharks.
Lubrication is another way to make a surface smoother. A lubricant is a slippery substance designed to reduce the friction between surfaces. You might use oil to stop a door from squeaking - the oil reduces the friction in the hinge. Water can be used as a lubricant - think of how a floor becomes slippery after it has been mopped.
Make the object more streamlined. A streamline shape is one that allows air or water to flow around it easily, offering the least resistance. Compare a boxy old car with a new car that has a rounded shape, allowing it to move with less effort.
Reduce the forces acting on the surfaces. The stronger the forces acting on the surfaces, the higher the friction, so reducing the forces would reduce the friction. If you apply the handbrake when you try to drive a car, the car will have a lot of difficulty moving because of the force immobilising (stopping the movement of) the wheels. If you release the handbrake, the wheels will move more freely because there is no extra force acting on them.
Reduce the contact between the surfaces. Have you ever tried to roll a cube? Spheres are the best shape for reducing friction because very little of a spherical object is in contact with the other surface. Several types of wheels, such as skateboard wheels, contain small spheres called ball bearings to reduce the friction between the moving parts. You can witness the effect of ball bearings by comparing the friction between sliding a book on a table and then doing the same, but using marbles between the book and the surface of the table. Notice how the marbles act as ball bearings, reducing the friction.
