In a refrigerator, energy is used to make thermal energy flow from the inside of the refrigerator to the outside. Use a law of t

hermodynamics to explain why thermal energy will not move in this direction naturally.

1 answer:
Vaselesa [24]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

According to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, heat will always flow spontaneously from hot to cold, and never the other way around. A refrigerator causes heat to flow from cold to hot by inputting work, which cools the space inside the refrigerator. thermal energy is transferred from the cool air inside the refrigerator to the warmer air in the kitchen. ... As a liquid, the refrigerant absorbs thermal energy from the cool air inside the refrigerator and changes to a gas.

a boat traveling at a speed of 1.63 m / s has a kinetic energy of 52000 J what is the mass of the boat
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

39,098‬ kg

Explanation:

KE = .5 * m * v^2

52000=.5m * 1.63^2

52000=.5m * 2.66

52000/2.66=.5m

19,549 = .5m

19549/.5 = m

m=39,098‬ kg

In a(n) what fault, the hanging wall block move up with respect to the footwall block. 97) _____
Naya [18.7K]
There are 3 types of faults, strike-slip fault, normal fault and reverse fault. So choices a and d will no longer be considered. Now the difference between a normal fault and a reverse fault is in a normal fault the hanging wall moves downwards and in a reverse fault the hanging wall moves upwards. 

So considering the two faults and their characteristics, the answer would be b. reverse fault.

A wheel in the shape of a flat, heavy, uniform, solid disk is initially at rest at the top of an inclined plane of height 2.00 m
olasank [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

If friction is neglected, the wheel cannot roll and can only slide frictionlessly and will have the same velocity at the bottom of the ramp as if it had been in free fall as it has converted the same amount of potential energy.

mgh = ½mv²

v = √(2gh) = √(2(9.81)(2.00)) = 6.26418... = 6.26 m/s

However if we do not ignore all friction and the wheel rolls without slipping down the slope, the potential energy becomes linear and rotational kinetic energy

mgh = ½mv² + ½Iω²

mgh = ½mv² + ½(½mR²)(v/R)²

2gh = v² + ½v²

2gh = 3v²/2

v = √(4gh/3) =√(4(9.81)(2.00)/3) = 5.11468... = 5.11 m/s
