Does this diagram illustrate the second law of thermodynamics? Why or why not

No, it does not because the diagram shows all the thermal energy added to the system being transformed into work. The second law of thermodynamics states that engines or machines cannot be 100 percent efficient because some thermal energy is released to the surroundings.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The diagram is not showing the second law of thermodynamics. It is the demonstration of 1st law of thermodynamics.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Second law of thermodynamics describes the entropy of the system increase with time, it does not decrease with time. It is constant for ideal systems.

While in first law of thermodynamics, it is stated that the energy of a system can not be lost but it is transferred from one form to other form.

And in this picture, it is shown that the energy released from heat source to cold sink is used in doing work.

Work and heat are forms of energy.

17 copper wires of length l and diameter d are connected in parallel to form a single composite conductor of resistance R. What
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

\frac{D}{d} = 4.12

Explanation:

As we know that resistance of one copper wire is given as

r = \rho \frac{L}{a}

here we know that

a = \pi (\frac{d}{2})^2

now we have

r = \rho \frac{L}{\pi (\frac{d^2}{4})}

r = \rho \frac{4L}{\pi d^2}

now we know that such 17 resistors are connected in parallel so we have

R = \frac{r}{17}

R = \rho \frac{4L}{17 \pi d^2}

Now if a single copper wire has same resistance then its diameter is D and it is given as

R = \rho \frac{4L}{\pi D^2}

now from above two equations we have

\rho \frac{4L}{\pi D^2} = \rho \frac{4L}{17 \pi d^2}

D^2 = 17 d^2

now we have

\frac{D}{d} = 4.12

A 2.0 kg block has a rope attached to the block on a table and is pulled with a force of 8.0 N. The block accelerated at 2.5m/s^
Masja [62]

Answer:

0.15

Explanation:

Assuming the rope is horizontal, sum the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Sum the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F − Nμ = ma

Substitute:

F − mgμ = ma

mgμ = F − ma

μ = (F − ma) / (mg)

Plug in values:

μ = (8.0 N − 2.0 kg × 2.5 m/s²) / (2.0 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

μ = 0.15

Find the resistance of a stereo: current is 7 A voltage is 49 V.
pochemuha

Answer:

R = 7 [amp]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use ohm's law which tells us that the voltage is equal to the product of the current by the resistance. In this way, we have the following equation.

V = I*R

where:

V = voltage = 49 [V] (units of volts)

I = current = 7 [amp] (amperes)

R = resistance [ohms]

Now clearing R.

R =V/I

R = 49/7

R = 7 [amp]
