Answer:
B-Friction

How?
Friction is when two surfaces rub against each other. This creates heat and resistance. It would only make sense that this force would slow you down will sliding across floors

Friction can slows you down as you slide across the floor.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So when we fall or slide upon a floor, just like resistance opposes the current flowing in the circuit, there is an external force that acts upon when we fall or slide away.

This external force is called as friction.  Friction opposes the object making the object slowly decrease its speed and lose energy. Gravity is the force that makes all the objects to return to the earth or ground when thrown upon.

levacccp [35]

Answer:

The minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.

Explanation:

The radius of the loop is 17.6 m. We need to find the minimum speed must the car traverse the loop so that the rider does not fall out while upside down at the top.

We know that, mg be the weight of car and rider, which is equal to the centripetal force.

mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\v = \sqrt{rg}\\v = \sqrt{17.6\times 9.8}\\v = 13.13\ m/s\\

So, the minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.

Heat is transferred at a rate of 2 kW from a hot reservoir at 800 K to a cold reservoir at 300 K. Calculate the rate at which th
vekshin1

Answer:

0.00417 kW/K or 4.17 W/K

Second law is satisfied.

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Rate of heat transfer, Q = 2kW

Temperature of hot reservoir, Th = 800K

Temperature of cold reservoir, Tc = 300K

The rate of entropy change is given as:

ΔS = Q * [(1/Tc) - (1/Th)]

ΔS = 2 * (1/300 - 1/800)

ΔS = 2 * 0.002085

ΔS = 0.00417 kW/K or 4.17 W/K

Since ΔS is greater than 0, te the second law of thermodynamics is satisfied.

What are some indicators of energy transformations?
Annette [7]

Explanation:

Contact, vision, sound, flavor, and smell are all markers of energy transformations. The most basic example would be when we notice something has begun to pass through vision. Whenever an entity accelerates or slows down, energy is constantly transformed.
