If a beaker of water is placed under a broiler so that the heating coil is above the beaker. It is observed that only the surfac
e layer boils. The water at the bottom of the beaker remains close to the initial temperature of the water. Which of the following statements is the most reasonable conclusion to be drawn from these observations? a) Water is a poor conductor of heat.
b) The sample must contain impurities.
c) Water is easily heated by radiation.
d) Water exhibits anomalous thermal behavior.
e) The molecular motion in the sample is not random.
The most reasonable conclusion of the above phenomenon is that water is a poor conductor of heat. Basically water is an insulator. The heat from surface to the bottom of the beaker will take a lot of time. Moreover, no convection current is formed so, heat might not even reach the bottom surface. Hydrogen bonding also play a vital role in determining the thermal properties of water.
The statement "<span>The motion of a pendulum for which the maximum displacement from equilibrium does not change is an example of simple harmonic motion." is true.

The distance between Jupiter and the sun is 5.2 AU.
According to Kepler's third law, the square of the period of revolution of planets is proportional to the cube of their mean distances from the sun. From this; T^2 = r^3.
Now, we are told that the orbital period (T) is 11. 9 Earth years. We have to make the distance the subject of the formula.
