Radiation does not require molecules moving in order to heat something up. Radiation uses thermal radiation to heat something up rather conduction and convection. No mass or medium is required for radiation to heat something up.

However, with conduction molecules bump together and will pass the heat, eventually causing something to heat up.

Convection is when something warm moves up into cooler places and then it's a chain reaction to get something warmer.

Carlos was camping and getting cold as the sun went down. He wanted to light a fire for warmth and light. However, he discovered
storchak [24]
1. The chemical reaction produced by Carlo's fire is exergonic because energy is "going out". As the reaction proceeds, entropy increases as the energy stored in the dry wood and leaves are used up as fuel to create the fire which produces low quality light and warmth.  

2. This reaction is a classic example of an exothermic reaction. Exothermic reactions are characterized with the presence of heat and light in the products. Combustion reactions are always exothermic in nature.

3. Catalyst are substances that are used to speed up reactions by lowering the activation requirement. Catalysts aren't consumed in the reaction and can still be chemically retrieved afterwards. In this situation, the leaves cannot be retrieved after the reaction ends. The leaves speed up the heating of the wood but it does not behave as a catalyst.

We have a toy gun with a spring constant of 50 N/m. The spring is compressed by 0.2 m. If you neglect friction and the mass of t
Arisa [49]

Answer:

31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by Us=\frac{1}{2}kx^2, where k is the spring constant of the spring and x is displacement from point of equilibrium.

When released, this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is given by KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2, where m is the mass of the object and v is the object's velocity.

Thus, we have:

Us=KE,\\\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Substituting given values, we get:

\frac{1}{2}\cdot 50\cdot 0.2^2=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 0.002\cdot v^2,\\v^2=\frac{50\cdot 0.2^2}{0.002},\\v^2=1000,\\v\approx \boxed{31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}}

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The Principle of Progression

(I searched it up since I never learned this)

Explanation:

The principle of progression states that a person should start slowly and increase exercise gradually. Since Mandy is just getting started on her exercise routine, she should begin with a few workouts over a large span of time, then work her way up so she can do more workouts in a shorter span of time.
