The correct answer to this question is : C) Conduction

EXPLANATION:

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand conduction.

Conduction is the mode of transmission of heat in which heat will flow from a body at high temperature to a body at low temperature in contact or from hotter part of the body to its colder part, without any actual transport of particles.

As per the question, the heat is transferred to driver's hand when he touches the steering wheel.

As there is actual contact between hand and steering wheel, the heat transmission will be conduction.

The heat is transferred by conduction because the driver touches the car by contacting, the heat is transferred from hot to cold.

Orlov [11]

The question is incomplete. You dis not provide values for A and B. Here is the complete question

Light in the air is incident at an angle to a surface of (12.0 + A) degrees on a piece of glass with an index of refraction of (1.10 + (B/100)). What is the angle between the surface and the light ray once in the glass? Give your answer in degrees and rounded to three significant figures.

A = 12

B = 18

Answer:

18.5⁰

Explanation:

Angle of incidence i = 12.0 + A

A = 12

= 12.0 + 12

= 14

Refractive index u = 1.10 + B/100

= 1.10 + 18/100

= 1.10 + 0.18

= 1.28

We then find the angle of refraction index u

u = sine i / sin r

u = sine24/sinr

1.28 = sine 24 / sine r

1.28Sine r = sin24

1.28 sine r = 0.4067

Sine r = 0.4067/1.28

r = sine^-1(0.317)

r = 18.481

= 18.5⁰

Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:In Mendel's time, many people thought that offspring inherited a combination of traits from their parents. For example, they thought that an animal with white fur and an animal with black fur would produce pups with gray fur. This is called the theory of combined inheritance. How did Mendel show that the combination theory was wrong?

An object has a force of 10 newtons from the right and 17 newtons from the left. Once the object starts moving toward the right,
Debora [2.8K]
The object will come to a halt.

Resultant force at start:17-10=7 to the left
When additional force is added to the right,it balances the forces acting in the object.

7N to the right and 7N to the left suggests that the object will come to a halt as it is in equilibrium.

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Product side

Explanation:

When water vapor reacts reversibly with solid carbon to yield a mixture of hydrogen gas and carbon monoxide and we continually add more water vapor to the reaction the equilibrium of the reaction shifts to the product side.

Because gaseous water is reactant that appears in the reaction quotient expression.

H_{2}O+ C_{s}\leftrightharpoons H_{2}_{g}+ CO

When we add more water vapor to the reaction the product formation is increased. The reaction goes in forward direction affecting the equilibrium.
