The householder installs cavity wall insulation. What would happen to the time taken for the temperature to fall between points
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

the answers the correct one is: the time increases

Explanation:

When an insulating material is placed in the cavity of a wall the thermal conductivity of the system increases, therefore the temperature changes take longer.

             P= dQ / dt = K A dT / dx

when placing insulation the value of k is less

When reviewing the answers the correct one is: the time increases

When a block of ice at zero degrees Celsius melts, the ice A) absorbs energy from its environment. B) releases energy to its env
Mariulka [41]

Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Latent heat is defined as the amount of heat required by per mole of a substance in order to change its state.  

And, latent heat of freezing (fusion) is defined as the energy required for the phase change between a liquid and a solid without any change in their temperature.

Therefore, at zero degrees Celsius energy absorbed by the ice will be consumed in breaking the bond between the water molecules held together in the solid state.

Thus, we can conclude that when a block of ice at zero degrees Celsius melts, the ice absorbs energy but does not change its temperature.

Sound travels slower in colder air than it does in warmer air. Make a claim about the effect of air temperature on the speed of
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: The temperature of the air affects the speed of sound in the due to the fact that colder contains air molecules with low kinetic energy. For warm air the kinetic energy of the molecules is high causing them to move in rapid motion. Because of these vibrations and collisions sound waves moves in a faster rate.
