Air spaces are used in insulation because air is a poor conductor.
Serhud [2]3 years ago

Answer: The correct answer is "air is a poor conductor".

Explanation:

Air is a mixture of gases. The amount of heat that can be transferred is minimal through air.

Air is an insulator. Insulator is used to control and slow the transfer of energy from the warmer objects to cooler objects. Air is a bad conductor.

Conductors allow the energy to flow while an insulator stops the flow of energy.

The wool traps air against your body as both wool and air are poor conductor.

Therefore, Air spaces are used in insulation because air is a poor conductor.

when an object receives energy due to heat flow then the kinetic energy of the particles of the object increases because the kinetic energy and the temperature are directly proportional to each others. When heat is added to the object then the movement of the particles increases.

Answer:

B. Technician B only

Explanation:

An oscilloscope can be used to check the output signal of an optical sensor. The oscilloscope has the functioning of viewing the results in the form of waveform and its time scale settings can be altered to meet the requirements of the results.

A voltmeter cannot be <u>directly</u> used to monitor the output signal of an optical sensor. But a <u>digital multi-meter</u> can be used to check an optical sensor if the digital multi-meter is set on AC - Volt reading mode.

Which type of intelligence (analytic, creative, practical, verbal, mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpers
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

  • <u>verbal,</u>
  • <u> Intrapersonal</u>

Explanation:

Remember, we are told that "Professor Wooddro<em> </em><em>teaches an Introduction to Philosophy at the college, and loves to talk about the meaning of life and death"</em> which would require having verbal intelligence (the ability to understand and relate information using words).

Intrapersonal intelligence is also reflected by Professor Wooddro as we are told he "enjoys struggling with life's most challenging questions", <u>which shows his knowledge of his own strengths or weaknesses.</u>

sing a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 361 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 455 N
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

a)-2m/s^2

b)27.2m/s

Explanation:

Hello! The first step to solve this problem is to find the mass of the block remembering that the definition of weight force is mass by gravity (g=9.8m / s ^ 2)

W=455N=weight

W=mg

W=455N=weight

m=\frac{W}{g} =\frac{455}{9.81}=46.38kg

The second step is to draw the free body diagram of the body (see attached image) and use Newton's second law that states that the sum of the forces is equal to mass by acceleration

a=\frac{T-W}{m} =\frac{361-455}{46.38kg} =-2m/s^2

for point b we use the equations of motion with constant acceleration to find the velocity

Vf=\sqrt{X(2)(a)+Vo^2}

Where

Vf = final speed

Vo = Initial speed =0

A = acceleration =2m/s

X = displacement =6.8m

Solving

Vf=\sqrt{(6.8)(2)(2)+0^2}=27.2m/s
