Thermal conductivity.

Answer: Thermal conductivity.

Explanation: In the iron, a piece of metal is heated up, and you put this on top of clothes in order to heat the clothes and remove the wrinkles in it.

Then, the thing that is useful here is amount of heat that the iron transmits to the thing that it touches, and this is directly related to the thermal conductivity, that tell us "how much heat a given material absorbs or transmits (in this case, the metal is hot and the clothes are cold, so the metal piece is transmitting heat)"

Then the correct option is the thermal conductivity

Using your knowledge of momentum explain why cars are designed to have crumple zones?
Molodets [167]

Answer: I think cars are designed to have crumble zone because lets say you're going 60-70 mph and you hit a brick wall that cant move, it would be a very hard jolt causing the beings inside to get thrown forward, but if it has a crumble zone it would slow the the jolt from is slowing down in the hit.

<span>One half-life produces (1/2) of the decaying substance.

There would still be  48  atoms.  But  24  would have thrown off
particles from their nucleuses, and only  24  would still be radioactive.</span>

Vector A is added to a second vector B which has an x-component of 3 m and a y- component of -5 m. The resultant (A + B) is in t
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

As B has a y component of -5, A must have a y component of 5 to have the result lie on the x axis.

As B has an x component of 3 and the result has an x component of -4, A must have an x component of -7

A = (-7, 5)

magnitude A = √(7² + 5²) = √74  ≈ 8.60

θ = arctan(y/x) = arctan(5/-7) ≈ 144.46° CCW from the positive x axis
