Why do your feet feel colder stepping on ceramic tiles than on carpet?

Answer:

Option B

Tile is a good conductor : a carpet is a good insulator

Explanation:

When the feet comes in contact with the tile, the tile conducts heat from the body making one to feel cold. However, since carpet is made of insulators such as cotton, they don't conduct heat, therefore, it slows down the flow of the heat which would make it feel warm so our feet do not feel much more colder as it does with the tiles.

Answer:

B) Tile is a good conductor : a carpet is a good insulator

Explanation:

Heat travels from hot to cold. Your feet are warmer than the tile. The tile is a conductor and when you step on it, heat from your body transfers to the tile making it feel cool.

What is the smallest radius of an unbanked (flat) track around which a bicyclist can travel if her speed is 29.0 km/h and the co
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the radius of track required be r.

Centripetal force will be provided by frictional force which will be equal to

m v²/ r

Frictional force = mg x μ

So

m v² /r = mg μ

r = v² / μ g =

  v = 29 km /h = 8.05 m /s

r =( 8.05 x 8.05 ) /( .32 x 9.8 ) = 20.66 m

1. Compare the speed that light waves travel in air to the speed that sound waves travel in the air. How many times faster do li
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

895522 times faster.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Speed of sound in air (v) = 335 m/s

Speed of light in air (c) = 3×10⁸ m/s

How many times faster =.?

To obtain how many times faster light travels in air than sound, do the following

c : v => 3×10⁸ : 335

c/v = 3×10⁸ / 335

c/v = 895522

Cross multiply

c = 895522 × v

From the illustrations made above, we can see that the speed of the light in air (c) is 895522 times the speed of sound in air.

Thus, light travels 895522 times faster than sound in air.
