Mathias Meyers · Answer 1

The answer is A. Second law of thermodynamics.

The second law of thermodynamics states that entropy must increase in order for irreversible thermodynamic processes to occur. In idealized processes, the entropy is constant. This follows the principle that entropy always increases due to the natural disorder and randomness of processes.

Riddle · Answer 2

According to the second law of thermodynamics Energy for any given system will either remain constant or will increase over time due to the natural tendency of objects to achieve disarray, whereas the first law of thermodynamics just states that Energy can neither be created or destroyed but transfers from one system to another.
