The three types of heat transfer are conduction convection and radiation. <u>Explanation:</u>

Heat transfer happens only when there is said to be a temperature difference. (i.e) heat transfer occurs with a higher temperature region to a lower temperature region.
Heat is transferred usually via some medium in the case of convection and conduction whereas in the radiation no medium is required ( i.e it take place in a vacuum ).
Conduction is a type of heat transfer that is mainly a character for the conducting and semiconducting solid material.
Convection is the heat transfer method that usually takes place in the liquids and gases.
Radiation is the heat transfer process in which heat is transferred via infrared or electromagnetic waves.

Answer:

12N to the right.

Explanation:

There is a force of 12N upwards and a force of 12N downwards: these cancel out.

Assign a negative value to forces towards the left, and a positive value to the forces towards the right: -3N and +15N

Combine them: -3N+15N = 12N

The net force has a magnitude of 12N, and since our answer was positive, it acts towards the right.

If light has a speed of 122,000 mps in a transparent medium, what is the index of refraction of the medium? A. n = 1.52

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

$A.\hspace{3}n=1.52$

Explanation:

The refractive index of a medium is a measure to know how much the speed of light within the medium is reduced. It can be calculated with the next equation:

$n=\frac{c}{v}$ (1)

Where:

$c=Speed\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}light\hspace{3}in\hspace{3}vacuum\\n=Refractive\hspace{3}index\\$

$v=Velocity\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}light\hspace{3}in\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}medium$

The speed of light in the vacuum is approximately 300,000 km/s. In order to work with the same units let's do the proper conversion with the velocity of the medium:

$122,000\frac{mi}{s} *\frac{1.60934km}{1mi}=196339.48\frac{km}{s}$

Finally, replacing the data in (1):

$n=\frac{300,000}{196339.48} =1.527965746\approx1.52$

Physics, calculating net force. Please work it out for me

Margarita [4]

Answer:

F = 2985.125 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of curvature of the roller coaster, r = 8 m

Speed of Micheal, v = 17 m/s

Mass of body, m = 65 kg We need to find the net force acting on Micheal. Net force act the bottom of the circle is given by :

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg\\\\F=m(\dfrac{v^2}{r}+g)\\\\=65(\dfrac{17^2}{8}+9.8)\\\\=2985.125\ N$

So, the net force is 2985.125 N.

<h3>What is a parallel circuit?</h3>

A parallel circuit is a circuit in which the components are connected to a common junction. This implies that if one bulb goes out in a parallel connection, all the bulbs will go out.

As such, Jasmine need to correct the error by switching the headings on the columns adding the title parallel circuits.
