Answer:
public class Main
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
int carYear = 1995;
if(carYear < 1967)
System.out.println("Probably has few safety features.");
if(carYear > 1971)
System.out.println("Probably has head rests.");
if(carYear > 1992)
System.out.println("Probably has anti-lock brakes.");
if(carYear > 2002)
System.out.println("Probably has tire-pressure monitor.");
}
}
Explanation:
The code is in Java.
Initialize the carYear
Use if statements to handle year before 1967, after 1971, after 1992 and after 2002.
Print the required message for each if statement
Usually a Xeon is the fastest. Matters what time it was built and the chipset. If its old, the i7 is faster.
Answer: Backtracking
Explanation:
Backtracking algorithm approaches a solution in a recursive fashion whereby it tries to build answers and modify them in time intervals as we progress through the solution. One such backtracking algorithm is the N Queen problem whereby we place N Queen in a chessboard of size NxN such that no two queens attack each other. So we place a queen and backtrack if there is a possibility that the queen is under attack from other queen. This process continues with time and thereby it tends to extend a partial solution towards the completion.
convection requires a medium is not the main difference, it is simply the most obvious aspect of what is a fundamentally different mechanism for transfering energy. Convection is the transfer of energy by movement of a medium, whereas radiation is the transfer of energy by, well, thermal radiation. Conduction also requires a medium, but, again, it is a fundamentally different mechanism than either convection or radiation; in this case it is the transfer of energy through a medium.
Unfortunately, analogies are hard but if you can visualize the particles involved, it would help. Picture the red hot iron you mentioned. On a molecular level, the material is emitting lots and lots of photons (hence why it is glowing red). The creation of these photons takes energy; energy from the heat of the iron. These photons leave the iron, pass through the environment, and eventually collide with some other object where they are absorbed and deposit their energy. This is radiative heat transfer. If that energy is deposited on your retina or a CCD (like in a digital camera), an image forms over time. This is how infrared goggles work and they would work equally well in high vacuum as here on earth.
In conduction, the next simplest example, there is no generation of photons (physics nerds forgive me for the sake of simplicity). The individual atoms in the object are vibrating with heat energy. As each atom gains energy from it's more energetic neighbors, so it gives up energy to its less energetic ones. Over time, the heat "travels" through the object.
In convection, the molecules of gas near the object gain energy, like in the conduction case, but those same molecules that gained energy then travel through the environment to some other location where they then give off their heat energy.
In summary:
radiation = generated and absorbed photonsconduction = molecules exciting their neighbors succesivelyconvection = molecules heated like in conduction, but then move to another location
