A chair is at rest on the floor. The chair absorbs thermal energy from the floor, and begins moving spontaneously with kinetic e

nergy equal to the thermal energy absorbed. This process violates ___________.
A- Both the 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamicsB- Only the 1st law of thermodynamicsC- Neither the 1st nor the 2nd law of thermodynamicsD- Only the 2nd law of thermodynamics

Answer:

D- Only the 2nd law of thermodynamics

Explanation:

It violates 2nd law because according to 2nd law of thermodynamics, it is impossible that the sole result of a process is is to absorb energy and do equivalent amount of work. so some heat must lose to surrounding which is not specified here. so it violates 2nd law.

so option D is correct

A sprinter is advised to reduced his speed slowly after completing his race.why
VARVARA [1.3K]

<span>The sprinter is advised to reduce his speed slowly after completing the race because of the power that is needed when the stoppage is down in a faster manner could be very great. This would translate to the great usage in gasoline. Also, the inertia of the vehicle is quiet high so it is hard to stop it very suddenly. </span>

Assume your mass is 84 kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How much work against gravity do you do when you climb
KATRIN_1 [288]
M, mass=84 kg
height, h=3.9m
gravity, g= 9.8m/s2
W = F . d
F=force
d=Displacement
W=work done by force
Now by putting the values
F= m g (Acting downward )
d= h (Upward)
W= m g h ( work done against the force)
W= 84•9.8•3.9J
W= 3210.48
Therefore the answer will be 3210.48J.

Heat likes to remain <br> ONMFRIU ← Whats that unscrambled?
OlgaM077 [116]
<span>So the question is how does heat prefer to remain and to unscramble the letters ONMFRIU. The unscrambled letters mean: UNIFORM. The heat likes to remain uniform because thermodynamic systems always tend to reach thermal equilybrium after some period of time that is specific for each system. </span>

A cannonball is fired vertically upwards at 100.0 m/s a) How long will it take to return to the cannon? b) what is it's maximum
V125BC [204]
Answer:
a) 20s
b) 500m

Explanation:
Given the initial velocity = 100 m/s, acceleration = -10m/s^2 (since it is moving up, acceleration is negative), and at the maximum height, the ball is not moving so final velocity = 0 m/s.

To find time, we apply the UARM formula:

v final = (a x t) + v initial

Replacing the values gives us:

0 = (-10 x t) + 100

-100 = -10t

t = 10s

It takes 10s for the the ball to reach its max height, but it must also go down so it takes 2 trips, once going up and then another one going down, both of which take the same time to occur

So 10s going up and another 10s going down:

10x2 = 20s

b) Now that we have v final = 0, v initial = 100, a = -10, t = 10s (10s because maximum displacement means the displacement from the ground to the max height) we can easily find the displacement by applying the second formula of UARM:

Δy = (1/2)(a)(t^2) + (v initial)(t)

Replacing the values gives us:

Δy = (1/2)(-10)(10^2) + (100)(10)

= (-5)(100) + 1000

= -500 + 1000

= 500 m

Hope this helps, brainliest would be appreciated :)

Yeast breaking down starch into usable energy ____________ law of thermodynamics.
Anon25 [30]
<span>First law of thermodynamics. This conservation law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be changed from one form to another. In essence, energy is always conserved but can be converted from one form into another. Like when an engine burns fuel, it converts the energy stored in the fuel's chemical bonds into useful mechanical energy and then into heat, or more specifically, the melting ice cubes. Yeast breaks down maltose into glucose to produce alcohol and Co2 in the fermentation process. This is a prime example of the 1st law of thermodynamics. No form of usable energy is really lost; it only changes from one form to another</span>
