Answer:
First law: kinetic energy is used to turn an electric generator
Second law: some thermal energy is lost to the environment as it travels through the system
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics is known as the law of conservation of energy. It states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. When thermal energy is used to generate electricity, the kinetic energy of the steam is used to turn the electric generator (thereby producing electrical energy).
The second law of thermodynamics states that energy transfer or transformation leads to an increase in entropy resulting in the loss of energy. This law also states that as energy is transferred or transformed, some is lost in a form that is unusable. When thermal energy is used to generate electricity, some of the thermal energy is lost to the environment as it travels through the system.
Answer:
A thermos bottle works well because:
A) Its glass walls are thin
Answer:
Explanation:
Displacement is the shortest distance or path between two points.
1) Displacement = √(36² + 45²) = 57.63 miles
2) Displacement = √(100² + 500²) = 509.9 meters
3) Displacement = √(60² + 40²) = 72.11 miles
4) Displacement = √(700² + 500²) = 860.23 miles
5) Displacement = 300 - 300 = 0 miles
6) Displacement = 200 + 100 = 300 miles
7) Displacement = √(650² + 650²) = 919.24 miles
8) Yes, since a distance is moved in a direction
Answer:
21 miles
Explanation:
3 miles an hour for 7 hours
Its simply 7m*3m/hr=21 miles
