Hello! There are a few ways. Let’s see...

Booms and skimmers: Booms contain the oil so that skimmers can collect it.

Leave the oil alone: Some scientists argue that oil spills should be left to disperse naturally.

In situ burning: Freshly spilled oil is ignited while it's still floating on the water.

Which of the following exemplify the behavioral mechanisms for modifying heat loss via conduction and radiation?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Moving from the shade into the sun, removing a sweater, curling up in a ball all are the examples of behavioral mechanisms for modifying heat loss via conduction and radiation.

What is heat loss?

  • Heat transfer from one material to another can occur intentionally or accidentally.
  • Conduction, convection, and radiation are possible mechanisms for this.
  • When a component comes in direct touch with another component, whether it is insulated or not, conduction frequently happens.
  • Convection happens when an air barrier surrounds a pipe, electric heater, or other component.
  • When there is no touch and heat travels in waves, it is called radiation.

Here are some typical heat loss regions that designers of heating equipment should take into consideration:

  • uncovered surfaces
  • Insulated surfaces that are horizontal or vertical
  • Water is present.
  • surfaces with paraffin or oil
  • Wind speed has an impact.

Hence, all are the examples of behavioral mechanisms.
