<span>This is not a violation of entropy principle, because this law is not violated in any way as it applies to both real an ideal situations independently. The entropy of a real system always raises and is an irreversible process.</span>

igomit [66]

Suppose car A is moving with a velocity Va, and car b with a velocity Vb,

According the principle of conservation of momentum:

Va x Ma + Vb x Mb = (Ma + Mb) V

V = (Va x Ma + Vb x Mb)/(Ma +Mb)

V = speed of cars after coupling

V = (Va x 20 mg + Vb x  15 mg)/(20 mg + 15 mg)

Put in the values of Va and Vb, and get the V

Heat used by electric heater :

Q = m • c • ∆T

Q = (75 kg)(4200 J/kg°C)(43°C - 15°C)

Q = 8.82 × 10⁶ J

Cost of electrical energy :

Cost = (8.82 × 10⁶ J)/(3.6 × 10⁶ J) • ($ 0.15)

Cost = $ 0.3675

Explain how heat (thermal energy) can change the motion (kinetic energy) of the particles in objects.
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

Adding heat makes the particles move faster so the particles have more kinetic energy when more thermal energy is added
