How does the vacuum between the inner and outer walls of a thermos bottle limit energy loss through conduction and convection?

By having no solid matter between the walls (like styrofoam) conduction is eliminated since conduction requires matter to be in contact with other matter.  The vacuum state eliminates convection since that is the heating of gas that then carries the energy to another body by traveling there and exchanging heat with it.

1. A car travels 36 miles North and then 45 miles East. How far does it
salantis [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Displacement is the shortest distance or path between two points.

1) Displacement = √(36² + 45²) = 57.63 miles

2) Displacement = √(100² + 500²) = 509.9 meters

3) Displacement = √(60² + 40²) = 72.11 miles

4) Displacement = √(700² + 500²) = 860.23 miles

5) Displacement = 300 - 300 = 0 miles

6) Displacement = 200 + 100 = 300 miles

7) Displacement = √(650² + 650²) = 919.24 miles

8) Yes, since a distance is moved in a direction

At a particular instant, a proton at the origin has velocity < 5e4, -2e4, 0> m/s. You need to calculate the magnetic field
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

9.7\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

Velocity =5\times 10^4i-2\times 10^4j

r=0.03i+0.05j

r=\mid r\mid=\sqrt{(0.03)^2+(0.05)^2}=0.058

v=\mid V\mid=\sqrt{(5\times 10^4)^2+(-2\times 10^{4})^2}=5.39\times 10^{2}

We know that

B=\frac{mv}{qr}

Where q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Mass of proton=1.67\times 10^{-27} kg

Using the formula

B=\frac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 5.39\times 10^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.058}

B=9.7\times 10^{-5} T

Describe the sun. Include its structure (layers), relative size, location, and effects of its magnetic field. Where does the sun
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: Nuclear fusion.

Explanation: The sun is a medium-sized star, its radius is  695.510 km and its mass is equivalent to that obtained by bringing together about 110 planets equal to Earth (6371 km is its radius).

It has six layers: The core, the radioactive zone, the convective zone, the photosphere, the chromosphere and the corona.

Magnetic field disruptions near active regions can generate strong explosions in the sun such as sun flashes and coronal mass ejections. The degree of complexity of the sun´s magnetic field increases and decreases with the course of each sunspot cycle.  

Sir Arthur Eddington was the first to evaluate all the data and dared to conjecture that nuclear fusion, the process that creates heavy elements from the fusion of lighter ones, could be responsible for the great production of the sun´s energy; this process make the sun´s energy was taken for the earth and the planet get back to the sun recycled energy. The sun has a very large and complex magnetic field; the average magnetic field of the sun is approximately 1 Gauss, almost twice as strong as the average magnetic field of the Earth´s surface (approximately 0.5 Gauss). Because the surface of the sun is more than 12.000 times larger than the Earth, the overall influence of the sun´s magnetic field is immensely large.

Why is sun the only star that can be seen during day time​
hoa [83]

Explanation:

i think the sun is near the earth that's why we see the sun during the day and the moon is behind the sun so when it is in the night the moon will remove in front the sun and there will be night I hope it will help you
