By conduction. Not convection this is air travel.

Because it's placed in the lasagna, the thermal energy is transferred by conduction. Remember, convection is transfer of heat through fluids (liquids and gases), and radiation is just transfer of heat through air.

A 100 kg individual consumes 1200 kcal of food energy a day. Calculate

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

(a) 5142.86 m

(b) 317.5 m/s

Explanation:

m = 100 kg, Q = 1200 kcal = 1200 x 1000 x 4.2 = 504 x 10^4 J

(a) Let the altitude be h

Q = m x g x h

504 x 10^4 = 100 x 9.8 x h

h = 5142.86 m

(b) Let v be the speed

Q = 1/2 m v^2

504 x 10^4 = 1/2 x 100 x v^2

v = 317.5 m/s

Let the final temperature is T2.

Q = m x c x (T2 - T1)

504 x 10^4 = 100 x 4.1 x 1000 x (T2 - 37)

T2 = 49.3 degree C

7. Copper can be coated on the surface of iron but not on silver? why

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Silver has greater electronegativity (pull on electrons) than copper, so it will be reduced rather than oxidized. Silver ions will plate out on copper metal. Sir the coating of iron with copper surface can be referred as IRON-COPPER PLATING.

Explanation:

Iron is used for the electroplating of so copper because iron falls above copper in the electrochemical series whereas silver will fall off below the copper in electrochemical series that makes it not reliable for the electroplating purpose
