Answer:
Conduction
Radiation
Radiation
Explanation:
When the door feels cold on the inside because it is cols outside, this type of heat transfer is called Conduction.
- Conduction is simply the movement of heat or cold (as the case may be), through a medium. An example of this is the warming of a fabric that is placed on a radiator, or heat movement through a pan to fry eggs.
When the sun shines through windows into a room and the room temperature rises, this type of heat transfer is called Radiation.
- Radiation is simply the transfer of heat or energy through space in form of particles or waves, light, x-rays, radio waves, etc. For example, the heat we feel when we stand close to a fire, gets to us through radiation. The sun emits radiation in form of heat, light and particles.
When the Earth's atmosphere is warmed by the sun's rays, this is also Radiation. This is because the sun's heat gets to the Earth's atmosphere in the form of radiation.
Answer:
11 time zones
Explanation:
Russia is the largest country in the world. The country is generally stretched by longitude, so it is no wonder that it has numerous times zones. To be more precise, Russia has eleven time zones out of the twenty four time zones, so almost half of them.
The eleven time zones in Russia are named locally and they are:
- Kaliningrad Time
- Moscow Time
- Samara Time
- Yekateriburg Time
- Omsk Time
- Krasnoyarsk Time
- Irkutsk Time
- Yakutsk Time
- Vladivostok Time
- Magadan Time
- Kamchatka Time
The Moscow Time is taken as central time, as Moscow is the center of Russia in many aspects, and plus this time zone occupies the area where the majority of the population lives and the majority of the industry is located.
Kaliningrad is the westernmost time zone, also occupying the least territory, while Kamchatka is the easternmost time zone where the Sun first rises in Russia.
