This topic is actually quite controversial, but the answer in this case would be C.
Just some food for thought, the 2nd law of thermodynamics entropy of the universe is always increasing, but that doesn't necessarily mean that earth's entropy has to. As long as the net change in entropy of the universe is increasing it doesn't matter if one planet is decreasing a nominal amount. Next, Earth as said is not a closed system and you could argue that the sunlight and energy from the sun is increasing the total energy within the system that is earth meaning that it is increasing in entropy. Next, if you consider increasing entropy as an increase in the number of possible permutations that the universe or parts of the universe can take, then it is completely possible that an ordered planet and life is possible, although rare. This theory explains why there are so many life forms and why entropy is actually increasing when divergent evolution occurs.
Answer:
E. Zero Maximum
Explanation:
At the point of maximum displacement, the speed is zero while the restoring force is maximum. In fact:
- The restoring force is given by
, where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement - at the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so F is maximum as well
- the total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:

where m is the mass of the system and v is the speed. Since E (the total energy) is constant due to the law of conservation of energy, we have that when K increases, U decreases, and viceversa. As a result, when x increases, v decreases, and viceversa. At the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so v will have its minimum value (which is zero, since the system is changing direction of motion).
It is called surface tension it is the elastic personality of some liquids as they pull together to take up as little surface area as possible. the water molecules would rather stay together than be pulled apart<span />
Answer:
Gamma radiation or Cathode rays
Explanation:
by striking incident gamma or cathode rays onto the solid when placed on a photographic plate
