How does vacuum reduce thermal energy transfer

Physics
2 answers:
Evgesh-ka [11]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Less air pressure.

Explanation:

Thermal energy travels in many different ways and one of those ways is through the air so if there's less air, it would reduce thermal energy transfer.

The silver coating on the inner bottle prevents heat transfer by radiation, and the vacuum between its double wall prevents heat moving by convection. The thinness of the glass walls stops heat entering or leaving the flask by conduction.

What is the period of a wave traveling 5 m/s if its wavelength is 20 m/s
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Speed of wave is given as

v = 5 m/s

Wavelength of the wave is given as

\lambda = 20 m

now from the formula of wave time period we can say

speed = \frac{wavelength}{time period}

5 = \frac{20}{T}

T = \frac{20}{5}

T = 4 s

so it will have time period of T = 4 s

A gold sphere of radius R=100 μm and density 19g/cm^3 falls through water. Given the viscosity of water is about 10^-3​ Pa s and
icang [17]

The terminal velocity of gold sphere is 39.2 cm/s

<h3>What is terminal velocity?</h3>

Terminal velocity is the maximum velocity attainable for an object as it falls through a fluid.

<h3>How to calculate the terminal velocity of the gold sphere?</h3>

The terminal velocity of the gold sphere is given by v = 2gr²(ρ - σ)/9η where

  • g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²,
  • r = radius of sphere = 100 μm = 100 × 10⁻⁶ m = 10⁻⁴ m = 10⁻² cm,
  • ρ = density of sphere = 19 g/cm³,
  • σ = density of water = 1.0 g/cm³ and
  • η = viscosity of water = 10⁻³ Pa-s

So, susbtituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have that

v = 2gr²(ρ - σ)/9η

v = 2 × 9.8m/s²× (10⁻² cm)²(19 g/cm³ - 1.0 g/cm³)/(9 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 2 × 9.8 m/s² × 10⁻⁴ cm² × (18 g/cm³)/(9 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 2 × 980 cm/s² × 10⁻⁴ cm² × 2 g/cm³/(1 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 3920 g/s² × 10⁻⁴/(1 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 392 cm/s × 10³ × 10⁻⁴

v = 392 × 10⁻¹ cm/s

v = 39.2 cm/s

So, the terminal velocity is 39.2 cm/s

What does it mean, if the specific gravity of an object is less than one?​
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Specific gravity can be used to determine if an object will sink or float on water. ... If an object or liquid has a specific gravity greater than one, it will sink. If the specific gravity of an object or a liquid is less than one, it will float.

hope this helps, have a great day/night, and stay safe!

Describe the difference between a conductor and an insulator in terms of thermal energy transfer and provide an example of each.
Nikitich [7]

The difference between conductors and insulators is because of electronic structure of atoms and molecules.

 

Anywhere we have free electrons, we have a hard conductor where free electrons help in conduction.

 

In electrolytes, charged Ions do conduction.

 

Dielectrics (or insulators) don't have free electrons current.

 

Free electrons mean, the electrons that are not related with a specific atom, they are allowed to move nearby the crystal lattice.
