Entropy is the measure of the amount of disordered in a system.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In 1850, Entropy introduction by the German physicist Rudolf Clausius refers a measurement of the system's thermal energy in unit temperature. It is not for useful work because the work originates from ordered molecular motions. And, this also measures the molecular disturbance or randomness of the system.
The concept behind this provides deep view into spontaneous changes in many everyday phenomena’s. The idea of entropy is a mathematical way of coding an intuitive idea whose processes are impossible, and not violate the basic principle of energy conservation.
D: Refraction
Explanation: Refraction occurs when a medium bends the light rays of an object. Like water for instance as an example of a medium.
Answer:
Part a)

Part b)
Ball thrown downwards =
Ball thrown upwards =
Part c)

Explanation:
Part a)
Since both the balls are projected with same speed in opposite directions
So here the time difference is the time for which the ball projected upward will move up and come back at the same point of projection
Afterwards the motion will be same as the first ball which is projected downwards
so here the time difference is given as



Part b)
Since the displacement in y direction for two balls is same as well as the the initial speed is also same so final speed is also same for both the balls
so it is given as




Part c)
Relative speed of two balls is given as


now the distance between two balls in 0.8 s is given as



Newton's first law of motion says something like "An object remains
in constant, uniform motion until acted on by an external force".
Constant uniform motion means no change in speed or direction.
If an object changes from rest to motion, that's definitely a change
of speed. So it doesn't remain in the state of constant uniform
motion (none) that it had when it was at rest, and that tells us
that an external force must have acted on it.
