Not at all. The First Law states that energy is conserved - you can't create energy out of nothing, or make it disappear. The Second Law distinguishes usable from unusable energy, and states that the amount of unusable energy will increase over time - but the total (usable plus unusable energy) will still remain constant.

What law of thermodynamics is unavailable for doing work?
"Unavailable for doing work" is related to the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
What is another name for the Law of Disorder?
Second Law of Thermodynamics
How many thermodynamics laws are there?
There are three laws of thermodynamics. The first law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. The second law states that heat naturally flows from hot to cold. The third law states that as temperature approaches absolute zero, the entropy of a perfect crystal approaches zero.
What law states that entropy tends to increase over time?
The Second Law of Thermodynamics.
When water becomes ice and the entropy decreases does this contradict the second law of thermodynamics?
No, Else there wouldn't be a second law of thermodynamics. You cannot look at the ice as something that is by its self. Something froze the ice. Something gained heat the ice lost. If these two things are working towards equilibrium, they are increasing in entropy.
What is universal law of energy?
There is no commonly accepted law by that name, as far as I know. Two important laws about energy are the First Law of Thermodynamics and the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
The fact that usable energy is always lost in an energy transfer is due to what 1 Newton's first law of motion 2 the second law of thermodynamics 3 Newton's second law of motion 4 the first l?
The fact that usable energy is always lost in an energy transfer is due to the second law of thermodynamics. This law states that entropy, or disorder, tends to increase over time in a closed system, leading to the loss of usable energy in the form of heat.
Why the first and second law of thermodynamics may be states you can not get ahead and you can not break even?
According to the second law of Thermodynamics, the amount of usable energy will continuously decrease.According to the second law of Thermodynamics, the amount of usable energy will continuously decrease.According to the second law of Thermodynamics, the amount of usable energy will continuously decrease.According to the second law of Thermodynamics, the amount of usable energy will continuously decrease.
What law of thermodynamics is unavailable for doing work?
"Unavailable for doing work" is related to the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
How does energy efficiency relate to the first and second law of thermodynamics?
By the first law of thermodynamics, energy is conserved - i.e. the sum of the useful work and the energy lost to heat will equal the energy you started with. The second law states that you will never get 100% energy efficiency.
What law of thermodynamics tracks 'quality' of energy?
second law
What is another name for the Law of Disorder?
Second Law of Thermodynamics
First and second laws of thermodynamics?
First Law of Thermodynamics: Energy can be converted from one form to another, but cannot be created or destroyed.Second Law of Thermodynamics: The second law of thermodynamics states that for any process occurring in a closed system, the entropy increases for an irreversible system and remains constant for a reversible system, but never decreases.
What is another name for the first law of Thermodynamics?
The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the Law of Energy Conservation.
Why can't electric suppliers use electric motors to spin the generators?
If you are suggesting a "perpetual motion" scenerio, it would violate the first or second laws of thermodynamics. Many inventors dream of perpetual motion machines, but they are an impossible dream according to the laws of thermodynamics. The second law of thermodynamics says that an engine or process of any type must always have an efficiency of less than 100%. A perpetual motion machine that uses a generator to power the motor that runs the generator requires both the generator and motor to operate with 100% efficiency. This type of perpetual motion machine does not violate the first law of thermodynamics, but violates the second law of thermodynamics. It is a perpetual motion machine of the second kind because it violates the second law of thermodynamics. Not even the cleverest engineer or inventor can build a perpetual motion machine because it would violate either the first or second law of thermodynamics, which are fundamental laws of physics.

True
