Tell me what the laws of thermodynamics are in a simple way​

Physics
1 answer:
MaRussiya [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The first law, also known as Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system.  The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of any isolated system always increases.  The third law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of a system approaches a constant value as the temperature approaches absolute zero.

Explain how the principle of uniformitarianism would help geologists determine the source of a layer of particular igneous rock
HACTEHA [7]

Explanation:

The principle of uniformitarianism was proposed by James Hutton, a Scottish geologist to explain geologic processes and how they relate in space.

According to the principle "the present is the key to the past and geologic process occurring today have occurred in times past. ".

  • Saddled with this knowledge, geologists can understand and unravel how rocks form and how the earth has been sculpted.
  • Today, in some places on earth, we see volcanic activities.
  • Such a place is on the Hawaiian Islands where hot plumes are coming to the surface.
  • In like manner, the lava cools and solidifies to form new volcanic basalt.  
  • Using this knowledge, any geologist can unravel any igneous rock.
  • From the activities in Hawaii, we know that past igneous rocks must have been formed by the cooling and solidification of magma.
  • This the tenet of the uniformitarian principle.

An electron in an atom's orbital shell, labeled X in the model below, released enough energy to move to a different orbital shel
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Lower energy shell which will be nearer to the nucleus.

Explanation:

When electron move from one energy level to another, an electron must gain or lose just the right amount of energy.

When atoms releases energy, electrons move into lower energy levels.  The electrons in the shells aways from the nucleus have more energy as compared to the electrons in the nearer shells.

Electrons with the lowest energy are found closest to the nucleus, where the attractive force of the positively charged nucleus is the greatest. Electrons that have higher energy are found further away

Calculate the magnitude of the focal length and power of a spherical mirror that has a radius of 5.00 cm.
yarga [219]

Answer:

2.5 cm

40 D

Explanation:

When the radius of curvature of a lens is divided by 2 we get the focal length of the lens.

Focal length is given by

f=\dfrac{R}{2}\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{5}{2}\\\Rightarrow f=2.5\ cm

The focal length of the lens is 2.5 cm

When we divide 1 by the focal length in the unit of meters we get the power of a lens

Power of a lens is given by

P=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{0.025}\\\Rightarrow P=40\ D

The power of the lens is 40 D

A 240-volt, 2-amp motor is connected to a three-wire, 120/240-volt system. Connected between the black wire and neutral are four
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

(i)The current flow in black wire = 9.67 A (ii) The current low in the red wire is 9.68 A (iii) The current flow in neutral wire is  15.36 A (iv) when 240 volt were disconnected current  in black wire is 7.68 A (v) when 240 volt were disconnected current in red wire is 7.68 A (vi) 15.36 A (vii) 6.34 (viii) 9.68 A (ix) 12.02 A

Explanation:

Solution

The current drawn by one amp is

I =P/V

I =200/120

I= 1.67 A

(i) The current flow in the black wire  is

IBK = 4 * 1.67 A + 1A + 2A

IBK = 9.67 A

(ii) Current flow in the red wire is

IRD = 3 * 1.67 A + 1.67 A + 1A + 2A

= 8.68A + 1 A = 9.68 A

Note: Kindly find an attached copy of part of the solution to the given question above.
