Conduction has to be touching the two objects. Convection is not direct.

for online classes : Conduction warms the atmosphere as fast-moving molecules come into contact with lower-energy molecules until all molecules are moving at about the same rate. As the atmosphere warms, molecules move apart. As the heated air flows, heat is transferred by convection from warm, low-pressure air to cooler, high-pressure air.

Korolek [52]

Answer:

$z= 2.5 \ m$

$z = (1 \ m , 4 \ m )$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Their distance apart is $d = 5.00 \ m$

The wavelength of each source wave $\lambda = 6.0 \ m$

Let the distance from source A where the construct interference occurred be z

Generally the path difference for constructive interference is

$z - (d-z) = m \lambda$

Now given that we are considering just the straight line (i.e points along the line connecting the two sources ) then the order of the maxima m = 0

$z - (5-z) = 0$

=> $2 z - 5 = 0$

=> $z= 2.5 \ m$

Generally the path difference for destructive interference is

$|z-(d-z)| = (2m + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}$

=> $|2z - d |= (0 + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}$

=> $|2z - d| =\frac{\lambda}{2}$

substituting values

$|2z - 5| =\frac{6}{2}$

=> $z = \frac{5 \pm 3}{2}$

$z = \frac{5 + 3}{2}$

$z = 4\ m$

and

$z = \frac{ 5 -3 }{2}$

=> $z = 1 \ m$

=> $z = (1 \ m , 4 \ m )$

In an HVAC system, the purpose of pneumatics is to serve as A. a controller B. conditional air flow C. an energy source D. a sou

Naya [18.7K]

Answer: A

Explanation:

A pneumatic control system uses compressed air as a method of control for HVAC systems. ... Each senor responds to changes in temperature, humidity, and static pressure as examples, to provide feedback in a control loop to open or close the actuator to meet the control set point.

Take the mechanical equivalent of heat as 4 J/cal. A 10-g bullet moving at 2000 m/s plunges

klasskru [66]

Assuming that all the bullet’s energy heats the paraffin, its final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of the material.

The energy of the bullet E = 1/2 mv²

E = 1/2 x 10 x 10⁻³ x (2000)²

E = 2 x 10⁴ J

This heat is used in heating the paraffin

E = m x c ΔT = m x c (Tfinal -Tinitial)

2 x 10⁴ J = 1 x 2.8 x 10³ x (Tfinal -20)

Tfinal = 27.1°C

Thus, the final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.

How many infrared photons of frequency 2.57 x 1013 Hz would need to be absorbed simultaneously by a tightly bound molecule to br

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Explanation:

f = 2.57 x 10^13 Hz

E = 10 eV = 10 x 1.6 x 10^-19 J = 1.6 x 10^-18 J

Energy of each photon = h f

Where, h is Plank's constant

Energy of each photon = 6.63 x 10^-34 x 2.57 x 10^13 = 1.7 x 10^-20 J

Number of photons = Total energy / energy of one photon

N = (1.6 x 10^-18) / (1.7 x 10^-20) = 94.11 = 94
