Heather is investigating the properties of light and how it travels. She places a glass on the windowsill and waits for the sun

to shine on the glass and observes what happens. Next, she places a piece of cardboard in front of the glass. Which statement describes the results of her observations?
A Since glass is translucent, most of the light energy was reflected from the glass.
B When the cardboard was placed in front of it, the cardboard absorbed some of the light energy.
C The light from the sun was able to travel through the glass. When the cardboard was placed in front of the glass, it absorbed the light energy from the sun and converted it into heat energy.
D The glass absorbed the light and converted the light energy into heat energy. When the cardboard was placed in front of the glass, the heat was transferred from the glass to the cardboard.
When the sun hit the glass, the light energy was absorbed. When the cardboard was placed in front of the glass, it absorbed the light energy from the sun and converted it into heat energy.

Answer: C

Since glass is translucent meaning you can see through it, heat energy from the sun will easily pass through it. If you were to conduct this test with a piece of metal the heat would be absorbed by the metal making it extremely hot. In this instance when they put a piece of cardboard in front of the glass it would absorb the heat energy since it is not translucent.

Which process transfers heat from the ground to the air touching it? Conduction Convection Evaporation Radiation
Delicious77 [7]

Convection

Explanation:

Heat is a form of thermal energy borne as result of thermal energy. It is observed as temperature differences between places.

There are different types of heat transfer:

  • Conduction
  • Convection
  • Radiation

Conduction is a heat transfer which involves the actual movement of the collision of the molecules of the medium.

Convection is a heat transfer in fluids by their movement from areas of higher to places of lower heat.

Radiation is heat transfer using electromagnetism and does not involve molecules of the medium

The process of heat transfer from ground to the air touching it is convection. It involves particles of the air.

Which law was used to determine the relationship between the volume and the number of moles?​
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The Mole-Volume Relationship: Avogadro's Law. A plot of the effect of temperature on the volume of a gas at constant pressure shows that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of that gas. This is stated as Avogadro's law.
