Answer: The correct answer is a hand is burned when touching a pot handle.

Explanation: There are 3 modes of heat transfer:

Conduction: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct contact between the two object.

Convection: This type of heat transfer happens when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas).

Radiation: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct transfer of energy through space.

From the given options,

A hand is burned when touching a pot handle is an example of conduction because there is direct contact between the hand and pot handle.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Decreases by $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound is defined as the energy of the sound that is flowing in an unit time through the unit area which is in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the sound waves movement.

The intensity of energy is described by the inverse square law. It states that the intensity varies inversely with the distance square of the distance.

In other words, the sound intensity decreases as inversely proportional to the squared of the distance. i.e. $\frac{1}{r^2}$

In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = $\frac{1}{9}$

But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by = $\frac{1}{0.06^2}$

= $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

Which is true about carbon-12 compared with carbon-13

E mass number of any given atom depends solely on the number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. The mass number of any atom can be determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons. (Mathematically this is stated as Mass Number = Protons + Neutrons). For instance, a Carbon atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons will have a mass number of 12AMU. However, a Carbon atom with 6 protons and 8 Neutrons will have a mass number of 14AMU. They are both Carbon atoms, however they each have a different mass number. Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons, and therefore, different mass numbers, are called isotopes. Isotopic symbols are used to indicate isotopes of the same elements. In the following isotopic symbols the lower number is the atomic number…it is the number of protons. The upper number is the mass number, it represents to sum of the protons and neutrons in the atoms nucleus.
