Who among these used Carnot's work in thermodynamics?
Isaac Newton
Albert Einstein
Rudolf Clausius
Carl Linnaeus
Answer
The answer is Rudolf Clausius. He used Carnot's work to develop the concept of entropy, a measure of disorder or randomness in a system, and the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the entropy of an isolated system always increases over time. These concepts are fundamental to our understanding of heat, energy, and their relationship in various thermodynamic processes.
