Which statement correctly describes the movement of thermal energy according to the second law of thermodynamics? The natural te

ndency of systems is for heat to flow from a cooler object to a warmer one. The natural tendency of systems is to evenly distribute energy until the objects are the same temperature. The natural tendency of systems is for heat to flow continuously between objects of the same temperature.

Answer:

The correct answer is:

The natural tendency of systems is to evenly distribute energy until the objects are the same.

Explanation:

Thermal equilibrium

When ever two bodies differing in temperatures comes in contact with each other heat flow takes place from hotter body to cooler body in order to establish an equilibrium in which temperature of both the bodies becomes constant.

According to second law of thermodynamics:

When the energy of the system increases, matter moves more freely and change in entropy that is disorderliness of the system increases.

This increase in entropy is due to the energy possessed by the matter particles which has resulted in their motion or movement

With this increase in entropy of system, system will start interacting with its surroundings .And this interaction will results in evenly distribution of energy in its surroundings.

Sav [38]

Answer: No crash landing on the surface of the moon and there is no vibration due to low acceleration due to gravity.

Explanation:

The rocket ship can't land on the surface of the moon because it depends on winged flight for its controlled descent to the surface of the Earth.  Since the moon has no real atmosphere, the wings would not be able to glide the craft smoothly to the moon's surface.

The acceleration due to gravity in the moon is very low compared to the earth. The astronauts cannot experience vibration ripple through the Moon’s surface beneath their feet because the low level acceleration due to gravity will drastically affect the weight of the ship.

Which of the following is true about light waves and sound waves? A. Sound waves can move at different speeds, but light waves a
vivado [14]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Sound waves speed up noticeably when moving through a solid or liquid, because all it is is just particles colliding; and particles are way closer together with those states of matter.

The speed of light can change when moving through different substances, but this is dependent on complicated factors such as frequency, polarization, intensity, et. cetera

The important part is that it does change speed, so your answer is C.

Hope this helps!

jasenka [17]
Well, I think it kinda depends on how long the "extended period" is.

If the extended period is a week, a month, or a few months,
then I'd call it a 'cold wave'.

If the extended period is like 100 years or more, then you're
starting to talk 'ice age'.
