None  of the above.
The air gap between the panes adds some thermal   insulation.
About 1/2"  is best.  Less than that  you  get     conduction.  More than that you get more convection between panes.   Double glazed windows do not usually have a vacuum in them --   there could be argon  tho...

Many double-pane glass windows have a partial vacuum between the plates.  This is a so-called VIG or Vacuum Insulated Glass.  This prevents convection from transferring heat (A google search of VIG will reveal this).   Other times a less convective gas (noble gasses) are used since they don't carry heat in rotational modes like other gasses.  In vacuum panes, the main transport of heat is through conduction in the glazing.

A sprinter accelerates from rest to 10.0 m/s in 1.28 s . Part A Part complete What is her acceleration in m/s2? a a = 7.81 m/s2
Mashutka [201]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of sprinter, u = 0

Final speed of sprinter, v = 10 m/s

Time taken, t = 1.28 s

a. We need to find the acceleration of sprinter. It can be calculated using first equation of motion as :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

a=\dfrac{10\ m/s}{1.28\ s}

a=7.81\ m/s^2

b. Final speed of the sprinter, v = 36 km/h

Time, t = 0.000355 h

Acceleration, a=\dfrac{36}{0.000355}

a=101408.45\ km/h^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

16x^2y^2-25a^2b^2<br>factorize the expression​
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

(4xy+5ab)(4xy-5ab)

Explanation:

16x^{2}y^{2}-25a^{2}b^{2}

4^2 is 16 and 5^2 is 25,

Also, (x-a)(x+a) = x^2-a^2

So, this factorized is:

(4xy+5ab)(4xy-5ab)

Hope this helps!
