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

What is the difference between distance and displacement? Give an example of a situation where distance and displacement both ha
Oksana_A [137]

Explanation :

Distance is total path travelled by an object during its entire journey. It is a scalar quantity i.e only magnitude.

Displacement is the shortest distance covered by an object. It is basically the change in position of object. It is a vector quantity i.e direction as well as magnitude.

When an object is travelling in a straight line and stops at the end point, then both distance and displacement are same.

When an object is travelling in a straight line and then changes its direction or we can say come backwards then the magnitude of distance and displacement are different.
