Question

In any process, the maximum amount of mechanical energy that can beconverted into heat

A)depends on whether kinetic or potentialenergy is involved.
B)depends on the amount of frictionpresent.
C)depends on the intake and exhausttemperatures.
D)is 100%. Hint: In any process, the maximum amount of mechanical energy thatcan be converted into heat is 100%. You can completely convertmechanical energy into thermal energy, but you cannot completelyconvert thermal energy into ordered energy.
