Which of the following is part of the first law of thermodynamics?
A
energy cannot be created or destroyed
B
entropy of the universe is constant
C
kinetic energy is stored energy
D
energy cannot be transferred or transformed
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy, and thermodynamic processes are therefore subject to the principle of conservation of energy. This means that heat energy cannot be created or destroyed.

Detailed explanation-2: -The First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be converted from one form to another.

Detailed explanation-3: -The law of conservation of energy, also known as the first law of thermodynamics, states that the energy of a closed system must remain constant-it can neither increase nor decrease without interference from outside.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The correct answer to the above question is: a) Energy cannot be created or destroyed. The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the law of energy conservation and states that energy within a closed system can be neither created out of nothing nor altogether destroyed.

Detailed explanation-5: -The first law of thermodynamics is the law of conservation of energy, that is energy cannot be created or destroyed but is converted from one form to another.
