Refer to the figure below.
Does this figure illustrate both the first and second laws of thermodynamics?
A) No, the figure illustrates the first law of thermodynamics only, because it shows how the amount of energy remains constant during a transformation.
B) No, the figure illustrates the second law of thermodynamics only, because it shows how the amount of usable energy decreases as the result of a transformation.
C) No, the figure illustrates the second law of thermodynamics only, because both laws cannot operate simultaneously in the same system.
D) Yes, the figure illustrates both laws of thermodynamics because both laws state the same basic principle.
E) Yes, the figure illustrates both laws of thermodynamics because it shows conservation of total energy and a decrease in usable energy during a transformation.
