The second law of thermodynamics has a principle of heat energy travels from higher temperature to lower temperature. This happens when we put our feet into the water. The natural heat of our body will travel to the water, thus we feel cold as the heat on our body travels to the lower temperature of water.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics describes the flow of heat. Heat flows from an object at higher temperature to the body at colder temperature. It does not flow in the opposite direction.

When you put your feet into the water. The heat from our feet will get transferred to the water. That's why feet gets cold but not get hot when you put them into the water.

Speed is velocity in a given direction<br> O True<br> O False
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.

uphill at a rate of 2.5 mi/h from the base of a 6-mi trail. At the same time, Edwin walks downhill at a rate of 3.5 mi/h from th
uranmaximum [27]
<h2>After 1 hour they meet.</h2>

Explanation:

Distance between them = 6 miles

Speed of uphill person = 2.5 miles per hour

Speed of downhill person = 3.5 miles per hour

Relative velocity = 2.5 - ( -3.5 ) = 6 miles per hour

We know

         Displacement = Velocity x Time

         6 = 6 x Time taken

Time taken = 1 hour

After 1 hour they meet.
