Which statement correctly relates the first and second laws of thermodynamics?

Thermal-energy flow between objects is conserved and always flows from the warmer object to the cooler object.

Here 'conserved' means that the amount of thermal energy lost of by one body is exactly equal to the amount of thermal energy gained by another body, which is the statement of the first law.

According to second law, we do not see objects warming up on their own. For example, if we have a cup of coffee left to itself, we would always see that it cools down. Here, thermal energy is being transferred from warmer object (coffee) to cooler objects (the air in the room).

(II) You buy a 75-W lightbulb in Europe, where electricity is delivered at 240 V. If you use the bulb in the United States at 12
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

You are looking for the resistance to start with

W = E * E/R

75 = 240 * 240 / R

75 * R = 240 * 240

R = 240 * 240 / 75

R = 57600 / 75

R = 768

Now let's see what happens when you try putting this into 110

W = E^2 / R

W = 120^2 / 768

W = 18.75

So the wattage is rated at 75. 18.75 is a far cry from that. I think they intend you to set up a ratio of

18.75 / 75 = 0.25

This is the long sure way of solving it. The quick way is to realize that the voltage is the only thing that is going to change. 120 * 120 / (240 * 240) = 1/2*1/2 = 1/4 = 0.25

How do I convert 200 yards into meters using Dimensional Analysis? Explain thoroughly. Thanks!
shtirl [24]

Explanation:

When doing this calculation manually, the formula of conversion that you need to use is yd / 1.0936 = m and this is the same formula used by the online calculator. For instance, 2yd = 1.83m and 15yd = 13.72m.

So 200 yards is (200 / 1.0936)

which is 182.88 Meters

Hope it helps..

What is a period in physics?<br>​
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The period of a wave is the time for a particle on a medium to make one complete vibrational cycle. Period, being a time, is measured in units of time such as seconds, hours, days or years. The period of orbit for the Earth around the Sun is approximately 365 days; it takes 365 days for the Earth to complete a cycle.

How many joules of work are done on an object when a force of 10 N pushes it 5 m?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,                            

Force on the object = 10 N

distance of push = 5 m

Work done = ?              

we know,              

work done is equal to Force into displacement.

W = F . s            

W = 10 x 5              

W = 50 J                

Work done by the object when 10 N force is applied is equal to 50 J

Hence, the correct answer is option C
