Setler79 [48]

Answer:

the second law of thermodynamics. that some energy is destroyed in every energy conversion.

Explanation:

According to the second law of thermodynamics, energy conversion is never 100% efficient. Some energy is always lost as it is being converted from one form to the other.

The fact that a steer must eat at least 100 pounds of grain to gain less than 10 pounds of muscle tissue shows that not all the energy taken up from the grain is channelled towards building the muscle tissue. Some energy from the grains are lost on the way according to the second law of thermodynamics.

An ice boat is coasting along a frozen lake. Friction between the ice and the boat is negligible, and so is air resistance. Noth
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

(A) No

(B) Speed decreases

Explanation:

(A) since there is nothing propelling the boat and the friction between the ice and the boat and also air resistance is negligible the net force of the system in the horizontal direction is zero and hence there is no change in the horizontal momentum of the boat.

(B) Since the person had not velocity in the horizontal direction before landing on the boat but now has one after landing on the boat, the speed of the boat will decrease because the momentum has to be conserved (remember there is no change in it).

What is the difference between an object’s speed and its acceleration? NO LINKS
Arisa [49]

Answer: Hello! An objects speed is constant and has the units meters per second (m/s); thus, it does not change overtime. Acceleration is a rate of change where the speed does either increase or decrease overtime from its inital value; its units are meters per second second (m/s/s). I hope that helps!
