Hey !!! i had to work on these for 10 days...found out a new proof........
 
as it is abt FREE lunch.....I will use the concept of FREE energy(gibbs)
 
We consider the rxn..FREE LUNCH....
 
here the reaction is endothermic as we gain energy...there fore  
 
H=+ve...
the temperature of the food is considerably low....
hence by GIBBS HELMHOLTZ reaction
 
G=H  -  TS
 
As  H is +ve and T is low....for this rxn...TS<H(exptl results)
 
G is +ve.....
 
Hence rxn not spontaneous............
 
So no FREE LUNCH

i think lunch gives us energy so delta H +ive

deltaH +ive that means non spontaneous , so we have to give some energy to eat lunch

We get energy from eating lunch and so we pay money to buy that energy.((It's good for the economy))

Man...I seriously think the person who created this question is out of his mind,he's either a maniac, or thought a little toooooooooo complex,...
what do u mean by FREE lunch?!!...n why's there no involvement of money here??...any normal human being will first relate it to paisa no?...n not thermodynamics...
Dont waste time on this silly question,if u still insist,chk out the options,if any.....
Lets make a logical choice

i thinki during eating food , we have to do some sort of work(by our hands and also by our digestive system) & enrgy is produced too........so, may be the amount of energy produced is higher then the amount of work done . also, amount of energy produced is definately higher them that work done because if it is less or equal to that energy produced to, there is no need to hv food..(bcz no extra energy is being supplied to our body)

hence , the problem...( not sure of my answer)

i was wondering

see

lunch gives us energy , i.e we take energy inside , so we have del H +ive , and del S is nt so big as comp. to delH , so by relation

del G = delH - TdelS

delG comes out to be +ive

so non spontaneous

so we have to do smthng to eat lunch

wat say???????????

i had a try , m nt sure

hey lemme try out sumthng stupid.....

luk wen we cook food certain mass converts 2 energy(e=mc^2) so d energy of d cooked food is less dan d uncooked food......hence ders always a spending of few kj of energy.......

dnt boink me ppl....i knw m tryn out a stupid logic...

I hve found 1 reference of "LUNCH"
It is related to Thermodynamics of phase change and phase equilibrium in small systems & Thermodynamic optimization in naturally organized systems.
No other references cn b fnd still now.
Let me kno where dd u gt dis frm????
Dn i cn promise d nxt  day i will gve a detailed dscussion. 
Hope u r cnvnced, lt it b 1% evn.

it's simple logic............
 in english free lunch means something acquired without effort or payment or obligation.......
relating this wid thermodynamics
it simply deals wid law of conservation of energy that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transformed from 1 form 2 d other
but for transformation we hav 2 do some work ... it simply can't happen on its own .......so  no free lunch .......but pay for ur lunch
 
pls tell me if i 'm right .........!!!
