Answer:
D) wood rubbed against a rough surface feels hot
Explanation:
The heat is transferred from one form of energy (friction of the wood being rubbed against the surface) to another (heat energy).
To develop this problem we will start from the definition of entropy as a function of total heat, temperature. This definition is mathematically described as

Here,
Q = Total Heat
T = Temperature
The total change of entropy from a cold object to a hot object is given by the relationship,

From this relationship we can realize that the change in entropy by the second law of thermodynamics will be positive. Therefore the temperature in the hot body will be higher than that of the cold body, this implies that this term will be smaller than the first, and in other words it would imply that the magnitude of the entropy 'of the hot body' will always be less than the entropy 'cold body'
Change in entropy
is smaller than 
Therefore the correct answer is C. Will always have a smaller magnitude than the change in entropy of the cold object
I do not agree with the statement.
The "substance" can be a compound. It's "pure"
as long as there's nothing else in it but its name.
'Pure' water is 100% H₂O with nothing else in it.
'Pure' table salt is 100% NaCl with nothing else in it.
'Pure' carbon dioxide is 100% CO₂ with nothing else in it.
These example substances are all compounds, not elements.
GPE= 70.56 J -------------------> GPE= mgh-------------> X= height
70.56 = 6(kg) * 9.8(m/s/s) * X
70.56 = 58.8X
70.56/58.8= 58.8X/58.8
X= 1.2
The height is 1.2 feet or meters (whatever unit you are using in this problem)
Answer:
Therefore, we need an invert, and a rectifier, along with the transformer to do the job.
Explanation:
A transformer, alone, can not be used to convert a DC voltage to another DC voltage. If we apply a DC voltage to the primary coil of the transformer, it will act as short circuit due to low resistance. It will cause overflow of current through winding, resulting in overheating pf the transformer.
Hence, the transformer only take AC voltage as an input, and converts it to another AC voltage. So, the output voltage of a transformer is also AC voltage.
So, in order to convert a 6 V DC to 1.5 V DC we need an inverter to convert 6 V DC to AC, then a step down transformer to convert it to 1.5 V AC, and finally a rectifier to convert 1.5 V AC to 1.5 V DC.
<u>Therefore, we need an invert, and a rectifier, along with the transformer to do the job.</u>
