Entropy of a system decreases .........

$100^{\circ} C$ temperature wala ek garam tambe ka tukda $30^{\circ} C$ temperature wale talab mein dala jata hai. Tamba thanda hokar $30^{\circ} C$ par aa jata hai,jabki talab bahut bada hone ke karan apne prarambhik taapman par bana rehta hai. Tab,

$A$ solid body of constant heat capacity $1\,J/^{\circ}C$ is being heated by keeping it in contact with reservoirs in two ways:
$(i)$ Sequentially keeping in contact with $2$ reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies the same amount of heat.
$(ii)$ Sequentially keeping in contact with $8$ reservoirs such that each reservoir supplies the same amount of heat.
In both cases, the body is brought from an initial temperature $100^{\circ}C$ to a final temperature $200^{\circ}C$. The entropy change of the body in the two cases respectively is:

The graphs below show the entropy versus energy $U$ of two systems $1$ and $2$ at constant volume. The initial energies of the systems are indicated by $U_{1, i}$ and $U_{2, i}$,respectively. The graphs are drawn to the same scale. The systems are then brought into thermal contact with each other. Assume that,at all times,the combined energy of the two systems remains constant. Choose the most appropriate option indicating the energies of the two systems and the total entropy after they achieve equilibrium.

$Assertion :$ When a glass of hot milk is placed in a room and allowed to cool,its entropy decreases.
$Reason :$ Allowing a hot object to cool does not violate the second law of thermodynamics.
