The process of heat exchange is involved in the operation of all heat engines.
<u>Explanation:</u>
A heat engine refers as the system which converts thermal or heat and chemical energy into mechanical energy. Then, these can be utilised for mechanical work. This is done by raising the active substances from higher to lower temperature state. In simple words, it produces macroscopic movement from the heat.
For example, when people rub their hands, friction converts mechanical energy (the movement of our hands) into thermal energy (hands warm up). Heat engines work exactly the opposite; they take energy to warm up (in relation to the environment) and release it for movement. This movement is often transformed into electricity by a generator. It shows that there is exchange of heat involved in all of its processes.
Answer:
According to the second law of thermodynamics, we are unable to use the heat of the ocean and the atmosphere because we do not have a reservoir that has a temperature lower than the ocean or the atmosphere.
Explanation:
As you already know, the ocean and atmosphere have a lot of thermal energy, however, we are unable to convert this energy into mechanical energy that would be useful for our activities. This can be explained by the second law of thermodynamics, since it states that the presence of two bodies with different temperatures is necessary for it to be possible to transform heat into work.
In this case, to transform the thermal energy of the ocean and the atmosphere into mechanical energy we would need the existence of a thermal motor, which is only possible to be established when there is a body with high thermal energy and a sink, a reservoir, with low thermal energy, which will be the place where the heat will be expelled, to be converted into work. We do not have a reservoir with less thermal energy than the ocean and the atmosphere, so we cannot use their energy.
We are given with the data that the angle of velocity is above the negative axis. hence, the angle lies in the second quadrant with negative x axis and positive y axis. In this case, the x component is -12 cos 60 equal to -6 m/s while the y-component is 12 sin 60 equal to 6 sqrt of 3 m/s.

Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields which vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse wave). Electromagnetic waves have all same speed in a vacuum (
, known as speed of light) and are classified into 7 different types according to their frequency and wavelength. This classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.
From lowest to highest wavelength, the 7 types are:
Gamma rays
X-rays
Ultraviolet radiation
Visible light
Infrared radiation
Microwaves
Radio waves
Sound waves, on the contrary, do not belong to the electromagnetic spectrum, since they are another type of wave called mechanical waves (which consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium).
During the ball's flight up its velocity and acceleration vectors are in opposite direction and during the ball's flight down its velocity and acceleration vectors are in same direction.
- The velocity vector is always in the direction of motion of the object. So, during the ball's flight up its velocity vector is in the upward direction (90°) and during the ball's flight down its velocity vector is in the downward direction (270°).
- When there is a positive acceleration in the object the acceleration vector is in the direction of motion of the object. When there is a negative acceleration in the object the acceleration vector is in the opposite direction of motion of the object. So, during the ball's flight up its acceleration vector is in the downward direction (270°) and during the ball's flight down its acceleration vector is in the upward direction (90°).
Velocity vector is the rate of change of position of an object. Acceleration vector is the rate of change of velocity of an object.
Therefore, during the ball's flight up its velocity and acceleration vectors are in opposite direction and during the ball's flight down its velocity and acceleration vectors are in same direction.
