Answer: D) Radiation.

Explanation: The shiny side of the aluminum foil is better at reflecting electromagnetic waves or radiation, so if this side faced the other side, it will prevent some radiated heat to reach the food, which is counterproductive.

When this side faces the food, it also prevents the heat radiated from the food to leave it, so it is actually beneficial.

So the correct answer of why this side should face the food is option D) Radiation

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Insulation

Aluminum foil are really good at keeping the food warm because of its insulation property that it does not let the heat of food go out

Students are given some resistors with various resistances a battery with internal resistance
Hunter-Best [27]
One of the primary reasons why a battery should have an internal resistance is that because it is connected to an electromotive source. This electromotive force that is caused by a potential difference would be used for driving the current to power the electrical loads the battery sustains.

Can someone pls answer number 8 for me pls
fomenos

Answer:

1.33 m

Explanation:

Tom weighs 600 N and is 2 meters from the pivot.  So his moment is:

τ = Fr

τ = (600 N) (2 m)

τ = 1200 Nm

To balance the see-saw, Jeremy must create an equal and opposite moment.

τ = Fr

1200 Nm = (900 N) r

r = 1.33 m

So Jeremy must sit 1.33 m from the pivot on the other side.

Why do conductors transfer heat faster than insulators?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Conduction is usually faster in certain solids and liquids than in gases. Materials that are good conductors of thermal energy are called thermal conductors. Metals are especially good thermal conductors because they have freely moving electrons that can transfer thermal energy quickly and easily.

Heat transfer by convection happens through the air, and there are millions of minuscule air spaces between the fibers. Heat transfer by radiation is also slow since one fiber must radiate its heat to another.

When we give heat then kinetic energy is increase and this heat is transferred from hot metal to cold metal through this free electrons. As in insulator the free electrons are negligible so that the heat is not transferred from hot junction to cold junction due to absence of this free electrons.
