<span>In the question,' when you are sitting a few feet from the fire, your skin feels warmed. What form of heat transfer are acting to transfer heat from the fire to your skin, the correct option is A, that is, convection and radiation. Heat transfer is defined as the exchange of thermal energy between physical systems. The rate at which the heat is transfer depends on the temprature of the system and the properties of the intervening medium through which the heat is been transfered. There are three basic modes of heat transfer, these are: conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is defined as the transfer of heat between two bodies through physical contact. When two bodies which have different temprature come in contact, there will be a transfer of heat energy between them until the two of them have the same temprature. Conduction usually occurs in solids and liquids; it occurs in gases also but it is extremely slow. Convection is the process by which heat is transfer in fluids, that is, liquids and gases. This is how convection operates: when a fluid is heated, it expands and it becomes lighter, this makes it to rise upward and move to the cooler part of the container, as it rises, it will be replaced by the unheated surrounding particles. This cycle continues until heat is evenly distributed all through the fluid. There are two types of convection: natural and forced convection. The heating of the earth surface by the sun ray is an example of natural convection while the air conditioner we use at home operates by mean of forced convection. Both conduction and convection require matter for heat transfer. Radiation is the transfer of heat from one place to another through electromagnetic waves. The hot body transfer heat by emitting electromagnetic waves. The properties of the electromagnetic waves depend on the temperature of the body. The higher the temperature the more intense the rate of emission of radiation. Radiation can occur in all objects and does not require matter for heat transfer. The heat of the sun reaches the earth surface by means of radiation. In the question given, as the air surrounding the fire were heated they rise and were replaced by the unheated air particles. The continuation of this cycle makes the heat energy to be transferred to the objects around. Thus, the heat from the fire was transferred via convection and radiation. </span>

A soccer player applies a force of 48.4 N to a soccer ball while kicking it. If the ball has
AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. 110 m/s2

Explanation:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

Since we have the force and the mass, we can rearrange this equation to solve for acceleration by dividing both sides by mass:

Force/Mass = (Mass x Acceleration)/Mass

Acceleration = Force/Mass

Now we just have to plug in our values and calculate!

Acceleration = 48.4/0.44

Acceleration = 110m/s/s

It is option C. 110 m/s2

Hope this helped!

What type of energy is formed when an object encounters friction?​
kiruha [24]

Answer:

thermal energy

Friction does negative work and removes some of the energy the person expends and converts it to thermal energy. The net work equals the sum of the work done by each individual force. The forces acting on the package are gravity, the normal force, the force of friction, and the applied force.

A wheel rotating about a fixed axis has a constant angular acceleration of 4.0 rad/s2. In a 4.0-s interval the wheel turns throu
anastassius [24]

Answer:

a. 3 s.

Explanation:

Given;

angular acceleration of the wheel, α = 4 rad/s²

time of wheel rotation, t = 4 s

angle of rotation, θ = 80 radians

Apply the kinematic equation below,

\theta = \omega_1 t \ + \ \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2\\\\80 = 4\omega_1 + \frac{1}{2}*4*4^2\\\\80 = 4\omega_1 + 32\\\\ 4\omega_1 = 48\\\\ \omega_1 = \frac{48}{4}\\\\ \omega_1 = 12 \ rad/s

Given initial angular velocity, ω₀ = 0

Apply the kinematic equation below;

\omega_1 = \omega_o + \alpha t_1\\\\12 = 0 + 4t\\\\4t = 12\\\\t = \frac{12}{4}\\\\t = 3 \ s

Therefore, the wheel had been in motion for 3 seconds.

a. 3 s.
