Why does entropy increase over time? check all that apply. heat engines are not 100 percent efficient. the natural tendency of systems is to break down, from order to disorder. all energy added to a system is used to do work. unusable thermal energy is lost to the surroundings. entropy is a measure of the order of a system.

How would doubling the made of an object change the objects potential energy

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 790 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of 28 degrees with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is k = 0.14. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of a = 0.18 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. b) if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, l, in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
