The second law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be changed from one form to another without the loss of usable energy. Enargy is usually lost in the form of heat. This law essentially means that energy changing forms is never 100% efficient.

When work is done energy is transferred from one object to another true or false?

True. When work is done, energy is transferred from one object to another. Work is the transfer of energy that occurs when a force is applied to an object and it moves in the direction of the force.


Is it true or false that all waves transmit energy?

True. All wave phenomena involve the transmission of energy from one point to another through the oscillation of particles or fields.


Do all waves transmit energy not matter true or false?

True. All waves, including electromagnetic waves, sound waves, and water waves, transmit energy as they propagate through a medium. This energy is carried from one place to another by the wave motion.
