A burning piece of coal glows red on a lab table. A student wants to prevent the coal from transferring heat to him. He sets up

a metal shield between himself and the coal to prevent convection. Why will this not completely stop all of the heat transfer? The metal shield will heat up, and then heat the air on the student's side of the shield. The metal shield will cause more radiation to reach the student. The metal shield will not prevent heat transfer by conduction. The metal shield cannot block the flow of fluids.

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. As a result, they are able to pass on the heat in air or another substance.

For example, when a metal shield is placed between student and the coal to prevent conduction then transfer of heat will not stop completely.

This is because metal shield will transfer the heat into the air due to which air becomes hot and the student will feel the heat.

Thus, we can conclude that metal shield will not completely stop all of the heat transfer because the metal shield will heat up, and then heat the air on the student's side of the shield.

A wave travels at 18 m/s and has a wavelength of 3 meters. What is the frequency of the wave?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

0.1667Hz

Explanation:

by explanation frequency is given by 1/time

after carrying out the calculation of time we can easily get frequency.

time=speed/distance

=18/3

=6s

but frequency=1/time

hence=1/6

=0.1667hertz

A solid spherical conductor has a radius of 12 cm. The electric field at 24 from the center of the sphere has a magnitude of 640
hoa [83]

Answer:

Charge density on the sphere = 2.2 × 10⁻⁸ C/m²

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of sphere (r) = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Distance from the electric field R = 24 cm = 0.24 m

Magnitude (E) = 640 N/C

Find:

Charge density on the sphere

Computation:

Charge on the sphere (q) = (1/K)ER²            (K = 9 × 10⁹)

Charge on the sphere (q) = [1/(9 × 10⁹)](640)(0.24)²

Charge on the sphere (q) = 4 × 10⁻⁹ C

Charge density on the sphere = q / [4πr²]

Charge density on the sphere = [4 × 10⁻⁹] / [4(3.14)(0.12)²]

Charge density on the sphere = [4 × 10⁻⁹] / [0.18]

Charge density on the sphere = 2.2 × 10⁻⁸ C/m²

Nails begin in which layer of the skin
icang [17]

Answer;

The Epidermis; stratum corneum layer

Explanation;

The distal end of each digit is protected by a strong plate of hard keratin, called a nail or nail plate, which grows out from a nail bed. The nail bed, is a specialized form of skin epithelium, and has the same four layers of the epidermis of skin, with the nail plate being analogous to the stratum corneum layer.

The nail plate is made up of tightly packed, hard, keratinized epidermal cells. It has a nail body, a free edge, and extends deep into the dermis at the proximal end to form the nail root.
