A dam holding water is potential energy. Kinetic energy requires motion. The general formula for kinetic energy is:
Ekinetic = ½m·v²
If there is no movement, velocity (v) is 0.
Assuming this is a chemistry question... The entropy of the system increases, as entropy is considered a measure of randomness of a chemical system. The universe favors entropy increases.
No, entropy is not path dependent in thermodynamics.
The unit for entropy in thermodynamics is joules per kelvin (J/K).
Yes, the second law of thermodynamics states that in any spontaneous process, the overall entropy of a closed system will increase over time. This means that in physical and chemical systems, energy tends to disperse and distribute randomly, leading to greater disorder (entropy) in the system.
The units for entropy are joules per kelvin (J/K) in thermodynamics. Entropy is determined by dividing the heat transfer of a system by its temperature.

In a thermodynamic system, as temperature increases, entropy also increases. This relationship is described by the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the entropy of a closed system tends to increase over time.

Energy, Entropy and Efficiency........
Entropy is a crucial concept in thermodynamics because it measures the disorder or randomness of a system. As a state function, entropy helps determine the direction of spontaneous processes and the efficiency of energy transfer in a system. It plays a key role in understanding the behavior of matter and energy in various physical and chemical processes.
Entropy is closely related to the 2nd law of thermodynamics, not the 1st law. The 1st law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted. Entropy, on the other hand, is a measure of the disorder or randomness of a system, which increases over time according to the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
