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

Physics

CaHeK987 [17]3 years ago

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.

Object A has a mass of 100 grams. Object B has a mass of 150 grams. They are both traveling at the same velocity. What can you c
Scilla [17]
-- Momentum is (mass) x (speed). 
Object B has 1.5 times as much momentum as Object A has.

-- Kinetic energy is (1/2) x (mass) x (speed) . 
Object B has 1.5 times as much kinetic energy as Object A has.

-- If they would both stop long enough to get on the scale,
Object B would weigh 1.5 times as much as Object A does.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

  n = 2.0686

Explanation:

When an unpolarized ray of light is reflected on a surface, the reflected ray is partially polarized, complete polarization occurs when it is true that between the transmitted and reflected ray one has 90, the relationship is

        n = so tea

 let's calculate

        n = tan 64.2

        n = 2.0686

The wave frequency is where 1 hertz equals 1 wave passed a fixed point in 1 second.
ahrayia [7]

                     (10 waves) / (5 sec) 

                 =  (10/5) (wave/sec)

                 =      2      per sec

                 =      2        Hz .
