When you bring two objects of different temperature together, energy will always be transferred from the hotter to the cooler object.  The objects will exchange thermal energy, until thermal equilibrium is reached, i.e. until their temperatures are equal.  We say that heat flows from the hotter to the cooler object.  Heat is energy on the move.  

Units of heat are units of energy.  The SI unit of energy is Joule.  Other often encountered units of energy are 1 Cal = 1 kcal = 4186 J, 1 cal = 4.186 J, 1 Btu = 1054 J.

Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object.  Two objects of different temperature always interact.  There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another.  They are conduction, convection, and radiation.

Answer: The answer is X.

Explanation: The air at the lowest point in the diagram is the most dense because it has cooled and sunk to the floor of the house.

Answer:

The Mass of a person is calculated to be 28.6kg .

Explanation:

This is based on Kinetic energy and we know, that Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by body by virtue of its motion .

It can be calculated by expression :

K.E=1/2mv²

Velocity of a person = 11.2m/sec

Kinetic energy = 1800J

Mass of person = ?

We know ,

K.E=1/2mv²

so, putting values we have :

1800=1/2 x m x (11.2)²

That is ,

m=1800 x 2 /11.2 x 11.2

or

m=3600/125.44

m = 28.6 kg

Why aren’t descriptive investigations repeatable
Kobotan [32]

Answer;

It does not have an hypothesis

Explanation;

The goal of descriptive investigation is to describe. It should provide factual, accurate and systematic descriptions of phenomena without attempting to infer causal relationships. It does not answer questions about the how, when, or why a particular phenomenon occurred.

A descriptive investigation includes a question but no hypothesis. Observations are recorded, but no comparisons are made and no variables are manipulated.

All sound waves need a(n) _______________________________________ to travel through. 4. _____________________ and ______________
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Material medium

compressions and rarefactions

Explanation:

A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave. All mechanical waves require a material medium for propagation. The medium for the propagation of sound is air. This is the reason why, if you cover your mouth, it will be difficult for another person to hear whatever you are saying.

Sound is also a longitudinal wave. Longitudinal waves are described in terms of compressions and rarefactions. Compressions refer to areas where air molecules crowd together while rarefactions refer to areas where the air molecules spread out.

I took the test, its constructive interference

Edit: this is kind of a trick question. took the test again it was the same question yet this time the answer was destructive. Good luck with that
