Soil profile includes all the sections/ horizons of the vertical soil depth from top to bottom including the transitions from one horizon to another. A soil horizon is a distinct layer/section of soil with more or less the same texture. Therefore, a soil profile is made of soil horizons.
kinetic is moving
so kinetic energy is something that moves
In some unusual applications of unusual components, I can think of unusual electric circuits where a switch may be connected in parallel with a device in order to control it.
But I'm sure this is not what's intended in a question on the high-school level.
Until you get in a situation with tricky applications in a tricky circuit, your switches will always be connect <em>in series</em> with the devices they control.
Explanation:
Since, entropy is the measure of degree of randomness. So, more randomly the molecules of a substance are moving more will be its entropy.
- For example, when a solid melts then it means heat is absorbed by it due to which its molecules have gained energy. As a result, they collide with each other and hence, entropy will increase.
- Evaporation of a liquid will also cause the liquid to change its state from liquid to gas. This means molecules will go far away from each other leading to an increase in the entropy.
- Sublimation is a process of conversion of a solid into gaseous phase without going through liquid phase. So, in this case also entropy will increase due to gain in energy by the molecules of a solid.
- In freezing, molecules of a substance come closer to each other and acquire less energy. Hence, entropy decreases.
- Mixing is a process of combining two or more substances physically with each other. This leads to increase in entropy of a substance.
- In separation molecules are separated from each other leading to a decrease in energy. Hence, entropy will also decrease.
- Diffusion is a process in which molecules are able to rapidly move from one place to another. Hence, entropy increases when diffusion takes place.
Thus, we can conclude that melting of a solid, evaporation of a liquid, sublimation, mixing and diffusion involve an increase in the entropy of the system under consideration.
