The first law of thermodynamic show that heat transfer is equal to work.But he does not give the direction as that system is consuming work or doing work.
Whereas the second law of thermodynamic give the direction as (1) Heat can flow naturally from high temperature to low temperature.When heat is flowing from high temperature to low temperature he can produce work.(2)Heat can not flow naturally from low temperature to high temperature.for flowing heat from low temperature to high temperature he consume work.
Second law of thermodynamic not only give the direction of heat flow but he also show entropy and quality of energy as high grade energy (mechanical work ) and low grade energy (heat).

Different ways to state the first law of thermodynamics?
The first law of thermodynamics states that whenever energy is converted from one form to another, the total quantity of energy remains the same.
What are variables for the first law of thermodynamics?
the internal energy (thermal energy)
What law of thermodynamics requires the work output of the engine to equal the difference in the quantities of heat taken in and released by the engine?
The first law of thermodynamics requires that the energy input to a system must equal the energy output from a system plus the accumulation of energy in a system. If no energy is accumulating then the energy input is the heat in and the energy output is the work and heat out.
How many hrs difference between syney and London in April?
After the first Sunday of April, the time difference between Sydney and London is nine hours.
How many thermodynamics laws are there?
Basically four: the zeroeth law, the first law, the second law and the third law.
What is the difference between perpetual motion machines of first kind and perpetual motion machines of the second kind?
Neither first or second kind of perpetual motion machines can be constructed, beacuse their existence violates the first law of Thermodynamics
Why can't the pressure of seawater at different depths generate electricity?
Quite simply, that would violate the First Law of Thermodynamics, or the Second Law of Thermodynamics. The pressure difference is caused by the weight of the water above it, and it is an equilibrium situation.

What law of thermodynamics states that energy is neither created or destroyed?
The First Law of Thermodynamics.

None of the above, the Moon is a satellite of the Earth, not the Sun.
Which law of Thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed?
That law is known as the Law of Conservation of Energy. It is also known as the First Law of Thermodynamics.

Difference between first and second shifting theorem?
Difference between first shifting and second shifting theorem
The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in the internal energy of a system is equal to the difference in energy transferred to or from the systems as work and?
Assuming you are talking about a closed system, it is the difference in energy transferred to or from the system as work and HEAT.
What law says that energy cannot be created or destroyed only changed?
It is called the First Law of Thermodynamics, sometimes also called The Law of conservation of energy.

No
What law of thermodynamics states that different forms of energy can be converted into one another?
That's related to the First Law of Thermodynamics - the Law of Conservation of Energy.
