Answer: Option (2) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to second law of thermodynamics, all the energy of a system cannot be converted into useful work because some amount of energy will be lost.

For example, a machine will never convert its energy into 100% work as some of the energy of machine will be lost into the atmosphere.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement some thermal energy is lost and some is used to do work, relates most directly to the second law.

Answer:

Dy = - 0.0789 [m]

Explanation:

The vertical component of the vector can be determined with the sine of the angle.

Dy = 0.250*sin(18.4)

Dy = 0.0789 [m]

As the y-component is pointing downwards the component is negative.

Dy = - 0.0789 [m]

• A plastic bag filled with air has a volume of

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The change in the mass of box = 0.01 kg

Volume of air in the polythene bag = Volume of air in the rigid box

Therefore, Volume of air in the box = 0.008 m^3

Now, Density = Mass/ Volume

=> Density = 0.01 / 0.008 = 1.25 Kg / m^3

Consider two children sitting on a merry-go-round, with one closer to the outer edge and one closer to the center. show answer N

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

They both have the same angular speed.

Explanation:

The mathematical formula for angular speed is:

$w=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

where $w$ is angular speed, $2\pi$ is a constant, and $T$ is the period (the time it takes the marry-go-round to complete a lap).

What we can see from the formula is that, since the $2\pi$ does not change its value, the angular speed depends only on the period T.

In this case for both the children closer to the outher edge and for the children closer to the center, the time to complete a lap is the same, because the time does not depend on where they are sitting in the marry go round. This means that the period for both is the same.

Thus, since the period for both is the same, the angular speed given by

$w=\frac{2\pi}{T}$ will also be the same
