If you cook a marshmallow a few feet above a camp fire, it will cook mostly

Physics

Answer:

A) radiation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, heat transfer from a body with a high temperature to a body with a lower temperature may occur when the bodies are not in direct physical contact with each other or when they are separated in space and it is is called heat radiation. Solids, liquids, or gaseous substances are able to emit energy via a process of electromagnetic radiation because of vibrational and rotational movement of their molecules and atoms.

Hence, since the camp fire is not in contact with the marshmallow and it still cooks it, we can infer that the mechanism of heat transfer is A) radiation. Moreover, both conduction and convection occur when the bodies are in contact.

Regards.

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

They were produced by stars that lived and died before our solar system was born.

Explanation:

According to what it's understood today, all elements heavier than hydrogen (including helium and excluding some that were created in laboratories) are created through nuclear fusion in the core of stars.

They start fusing hydrogen into helium, then as the star grows older helium is fused into beryllium and so on for all the periodic table.

So as far as science understands it today it's a literal truth that we are made of stars. (as almost everything else)

The magnetic north pole changes location but the geographic north pole does not true or false
a_sh-v [17]
The North Magnetic Pole is the point on the surface of Earth's Northern Hemisphere at which the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards (in other words, if a magnetic compass needle is allowed to rotate about a horizontal axis, it will point straight down). There is only one location where this occurs, near (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole and the Geomagnetic North Pole. So yes true

When the distance between two masses is doubled, the gravitational attraction between
mrs_skeptik [129]

The new gravitational attraction will be 1/4 as much

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between them

In this problem, the original force between the two objects is F, when they are separated by a distance r.

Later, the distance between the two objects is doubled, so the new distance is

r'=2r

Therefore, the new force will be

F'=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{(2r)^2}=\frac{1}{4}(\frac{Gm_1 m_2}{r^2})=\frac{F}{4}

Therefore, the new force will be one-fourth as much.
