A pot falls and shatters. Which of the following laws best explains why collecting the pieces and dropping them a second time does not cause the pieces to reform into the original pot ? A. The entropy of a system approaches a constant value as the temperature decreases B. Energy cannot be created or destroyed C. The entropy of an isolated system only increases D. If two systems are in equilibrium with a third, they are in equilibrium with each other

explanation:

physics means: "the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. the subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."

we have been given a quadratic function and we need to restrict the domain such that it becomes a one to one function.

we know that vertex of this quadratic function occurs at (5,2).

further, we know that range of this function is .

if we restrict the domain of this function to either or , it will become one to one function.

let us know find its inverse.

upon interchanging x and y, we get:

let us now solve this function for y.

hence, the inverse function would be if we restrict the domain of original function to and the inverse function would be if we restrict the domain to .
