What mechanisms help the body conserve heat?

One of the mechanisms that help the body to conserve its heat is the slowing down of the blood flow towards the parts of the body exposed to cold temperatures. Another is to shiver when it is cold to keep the warmth of the body through movement.

The mechanisms that are used to help the body conserve heat are vasoconstriction and shivering. Vasoconstriction occurs when the blood vessels constrict causing the blood pressure to rise. Shivering occurs when the body becomes cold and it helps to maintain homeostasis.

Which describes who will record their measurements in joules?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: Lily, Astrid, Henry, and Bob

Explanation:

By a small online search i've found the image related to this question, and you can see it below.

Joules is a unit of energy, such that:

Joule = kg*m^2/s^2

In other hand, Watt is a unit of power, such that:

1 W = 1 J/s

Then if we measure power, we are measuring watts, which is equivalent to measuring the total amount of energy in joules in a given period of time, and then dividing that by the time. And if we measure energy, we are directly measuring joules.

Then if we measure power or energy, at some point our measures will be in joules (unless we have an specific device to measure power, but these usually exist for electronic systems, not for mechanical/dinamic systems like the ones in the image), this means that all of them will record their measurements in joules, so the correct option is Lily, Astrid, Henry, and Bob

I think least electricity is used between probably 7-8a.m. and 4-5p.m.

This is because, around those times, the suns already out. Depending on how sunny it is, it may not be as cold as all the other times of the day. And by then, buildings are typically already warmed all up. Everybody's body heat also may play a factor in buildings. ( if there is a ton of people )

Can spoon ring like a bell prove it
mote1985 [20]
Yes spoon can sound like a bell. To prove this, we perform an experiment.The handle of the spoon is tied at the mid point of the string, then wrap the ends of the string around pointer fingers. Now place fingers in  ears. Lean over so that spoon hangs freely and swing the spoon so it taps against a door.
A sound is produced because the spoon vibrated, causing sound waves to travel up the string and into ears.

A 1500kg car double its speed from 50km/h to 100km/h. By how many times does the kinetic energy from the car's forward motion in
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inital KE = (1/2) m v^2 = (1/2) * 1500 * 50^2 = 1,875,000 J  

Final KE = (1/2) * 1500 * 100^2 = 7,500,000 J  

But  ,

4 * 1875000 = 7500000

so the KE has increased by 4 times.
