Describe an imaginary process that satisfies the second law but violates the first law of thermodynamics.

Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

First last of thermodynamics, just discusses the changes that a system is undergoing and the processes involved in it. It explains conservation of energy for a system undergoing changes or processes.

Second law of thermodynamics helps in defining the process and also the direction of the processes. It tells about the possibility of a process or the restriction of a process. It states that the entropy of a system always increases.

For this to occur the energy contained by a body has to diminish without converting to work or internal energy. So imagine a machine which works with less than efficiency, this means there are losses but they don’t show up anywhere. But the energy is obtained from a higher energy source to lower.

The easy way to do this is with an imaginary device that extracts zero-point energy to heat a quantity of gas. Energy is being created, so the first law is violated, and the entropy of the system is increasing as the gas heats up.

First law is violated since the energy conversion don't apply but the direction of work is applied so second law is satisfied.

Given a force of 88 N and an acceleration of 4 m/s2, what is the mass?
WARRIOR [948]
Newton's second law of motion says:

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

88 = (mass) x (4)

Divide each side by 4 :

Mass = 22 kg.
