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.

Object A is 71 degrees and object B is 75 degrees how will thermal energy flow
Tasya [4]

Given :

Object A is 71 degrees and object B is 75 degrees .

To Find :

How will thermal energy flow.

Solution :

We know, by law of thermodynamics thermal energy will flow from higher temperature to lower temperature.

So, in the given question energy will flow from object B from object A.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Through which one of the following mediums is the velocity of a sound wave the greatest?
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer: C. Steel

Explanation: When a sound wave travels through a solid body consisting

of an elastic material, the velocity of the wave is relatively

high. For instance, the velocity of a sound wave traveling

through steel (which is almost perfectly elastic) is about

5,060 meters per second. On the other hand, the velocity

of a sound wave traveling through an inelastic solid is

relatively low. So, for example, the velocity of a sound wave

traveling through lead (which is inelastic) is approximately

1,402 meters per second.

A force vector F1 points due east and has a magnitude of 200N. A second force F2 is added to F1. The resultant of the two vector
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The second vector \vec{F_2} points due West with a magnitude of 600N

Explanation:

The original vector \vec{F_1} points with a magnitude of 200N due east, the Resultant vector \vec{R} points due west (that's how east/west direction can be interpreted, from east to west) with a magnitude of  400N. If we choose East as the positive direction and West as the negative one, we can write the following vectorial equation:

\vec{F_1}+\vec{F_2}=\vec{R}\implies\vec{F_2}=\vec{R}-\vec{F_1}=-400N-200N=-600N

With the negative sign signifying that the vector points west.

An 1100kg car reached 30m/s in 9s from rest. What force did the engine provide?
malfutka [58]

Answer:

≅3666.67 N

Explanation:

Use Newton's 2nd law, F = ma where F=force applied, m = mass of the object,

a = acceleration acquired by the object.

a= (v-u)/t where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity and t = time taken

calculate a = (30-0)/9 ≅ 3.33 m/s2

Then F = 1100×a = 3666.67 N

Drosera magnifica is an organism that was first discovered in 2015.
mestny [16]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Plantae.

Explanation:

Drosera m<em>agnifica</em> is discovered in 2015 for the first time and the characteristics this organism's cell shows are -

- permanent vacuoles

- surrounded by cellulose layer

Vacuoles are present in both Plantae and Animalia kingdom of the eukaryotic organism but in animal cells, there are small and numerous vacuoles present and they are not permanent whereas in plant cells vacuoles are present permanently.

The cell of an animal cell has no surrounding layer other than cell membrane while in the plant cell there is a supporting and protecting layer of cellulose cell wall present.

On the basis of the given characteristics, it is confirmed that the Drosera magnifica belongs to Plantae kingdom.
