Answer:
The correct option is;
Why car engines are not perfectly efficient
Explanation:
The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that the total entropy, S, of a system combined with the entropy of its surrounding cannot be decreased, such that for an irreversible process, the entropy always increases and > , while for a reversible process the entropy is constant and
The entropy is a measure of the amount of useful work obtainable from heat (or thermal) energy
A system with a low entropy has high amounts of heat energy capable of doing work while a high entropy system can produce only a small amount of useful work from the available thermal energy
In car engines, as the parts start to move, the entropy of the system increases alongside the generated heat lost to the environment, the amount of heat available for doing work reduces and therefore, the entropy increases further and the ratio of work obtainable from a given input of heat energy reduces and therefore, the car engine is not perfectly efficient.
As a rocket increases height and slows down, it gains more and more potential energy and loses more and more kinetic energy. Potential energy is store energy (usually determined by height), and kinetic energy increases as speed increases.
-- The forces of gravity between the Earth and the skydiver
(her "weight") remain the same when thew parachute opens.
-- At the same instant, the force of air resistance becomes greater.
Answer:
Newton's Third Law of Motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. What this means is that pushing on an object causes that object to push back against you, the exact same amount, but in the opposite direction.
Explanation:
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. <span>The process of bringing the solvent to boiling, evaporating it all away, and leaving the solute behind, is known as evaporation. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
