How is the thermal energy of the radiator transferred to the surrounding air

Physics
1 answer:
CaHeK987 [17]3 years ago
6 0
Radiant energy. The heat in the radiator does not transfer from the radiator by convection because the heat in the radiator is inside the radiator and not a part of the surrounding air. There is a casing surrounding that heat source; the air cannot get to that heat source directly.

Here's what really happens. Radiant energy from the radiator honeycomb heats the surrounding air. And the heated surrounding air then carries off that heat by convection. My point is this... thermal energy is transferred from the radiator to the surrounding air as radiant energy. Only after that energy is in the air does convection play a role in the heat transfer.

Naddika [18.5K]

Explanation:

Initial energy = final energy + work done by friction

PE = PE + KE + W

mgH = mgh + 1/2 mv² + W

(800)(9.8)(30) = (800)(9.8)(2) + 1/2 (800) v² + 25000

v = 22.1 m/s

Without friction:

PE = PE + KE

mgH = mgh + 1/2 mv²

(800)(9.8)(30) = (800)(9.8)(2) + 1/2 (800) v²

v = 23.4 m/s

I which types of galaxy are globular clusters most likely to be found?
NemiM [27]
Globular clusters are very tightly bound by gravity, which gives them their spherical shapes and relatively high stellar densities toward their centers. The name of this category of star cluster is derived from the Latin globulus—a small sphere.

What molecular geometry would be expected for f2 and hf?
Kaylis [27]
The molecular geometry of both F2 and HF is linear.

There are only two atoms which are covalently bonded and thus, the bonding scheme with the atoms looks like this;

F --- F

H---F

So, both are linear.

A 10-kg cart moving at 5 m/s collides with a 5-kg cart at rest and causes it to move 10 m/s. Which principle explains the result
Over [174]
B) law of conservation of momentum

It states that the total momentum of a system before impact is the same as the total momentum of the system after impact.

In this case total momentum before impact:

10kg*5m/s  + 5kg * 0m/s = 50 kg m/s

After Impact:

10kg*0m/s + 5kg*10m/s = 50 kg m/s

You can see the momentum before and after impact is same as 50 kg m/s  

Of course we assumed that the first cart stopped after the impact, and there are no energy losses.
