In which of these samples do the molecules most likely have the least kinetic energy?

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. It would be the solid iron at 25 degrees Celsius where the molecules have the least kinetic energy. The lower the temperature, the lower the kinetic energy of the molecules. Hope this helps.

Solid iron at 25°C
the cooler the temperature the less energy the particles have

Which statement most accurately describes the second law of thermodynamics?

balandron [24]

Answer:

Energy cannot be changed from one form to another without a loss of usable energy

Explanation:

Second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy or the randomness of the system remains constant over time. It also states that the net entropy will remain the same or it will increase.

Entropy of a system is given by heat absorbed divided by temperature. It is given by :

$\Delta S=\dfrac{\Delta Q}{T}$

So, the correct option is (A) "Energy cannot be changed from one form to another without a loss of usable energy".

The magnitude of a velocity vector is called speed. Suppose that a wind is blowing from the direction N45°W at a speed of 50 km/

velikii [3]

To solve this problem, you must figure out (in vector form) both the wind vector and plane vector

w⃗ = wind vector

P⃗ = plane vector

To get the true course of the plane, you need to add the plane and wind vectors, the formula would be

w⃗ +P⃗ ,

which will result to the ground speed.

ground speed=||w⃗ +P⃗ ||

Using the planar representation of your situation, this will help you understand the equation, use this to make the equation more understandable.

w⃗ =AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, P⃗ =AC¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

the smaller circle is of radius 50 (similar to the wind speed) and the larger circle is of radius 200 (similar to the plane vector. To get the coordinates of these two vectors, use polar coordinates.

Let East be 0 degrees, so since the wind vector is on the circle of radius 50, we have:

w⃗ =⟨50cos(135),50sin(135)⟩=⟨−252√, 252√⟩.

P⃗ =⟨200cos(60),200sin(60)⟩=⟨100,\1003√⟩.

w⃗ +P⃗ =⟨100−252√ , 1003√+252√⟩

||w⃗ +P⃗ ||=(100−252√)2+(1003√+252√)2

√≈218.349218.
