I don't know what your options are, but heat moves from the sun moves in 3 ways: radiation, conduction, and convection. I hope this helps at least a little

Answer: Radiation

Explanation:

There are three modes of heat transfer:

Conduction: Heat transfers from hotter body to colder one via conduction when they are placed in contact with each other. The molecules vibrate and transfer heat.

Convection: Heat transfers in fluids via convection. The heat is carried by bulk motion of fluid.

Radiation: Heat transfer through space takes place via radiation. The electromagnetic waves carry the energy from the Sun and moves through space. This mode does not depend on the medium. The electromagnetic waves carry the energy and travel at the speed of light.

2) Why do you think fossil fueled cars are still out numbering alternative and replacement fueled cars even though fossil fuels

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Fossil-fueled cars are still outnumbering the alternative and replacement-fueled cars because they are generally cost-effective and are efficient.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are non-renewable energy that cannot be replenished. Although many people know how harmful using them can be to the environment, still, people continue to buy cars that are powered by it. This is because, using fossil-fueled cars can help you save money compared to using replacement-fueled cars. Its engines are also more powerful, which means they can arrive at their destination in just a few minutes. This makes it efficient. The cost of maintaining a fossil-fueled car is less expensive compared to replacement-fueled cars. People are naturally keen when it comes to budgeting, thus, many people still buy cars powered by fossil fuels.

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Speed greater than 4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that Ms. Kasper is in a panic. Her cat, Penny, is stuck in a tree and about to jump out. In order to save her cat, Ms. Kasper needs to run to the tree, 12 meters away. If it takes her cat, 3 seconds to fall, how fast would Ms. Kasper have to run to save her cat?

The distance = 12 m

Time = 3s

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 12/3

Speed = 4 m/s

Ms Kasper must run at speed more than 4m/s for her to save the cat.

A 55.0-g sample of hot metal initially at 99.5oC was added to 40.0 g of water in a Styrofoam coffee cup calorimeter. The water a

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Cp= 0.44 J/g.C

This is heat capacity of metal.

Explanation:

From energy conservation

Heat lost by metal = Heat gain by water +Heat gain by calorimeter

Because here temperature of metal is high that is why it loose the heat.The temperature of water and calorimeter is low that is why they gain the heat.

final temperature is T= 30.5 C

We know that sensible heat transfer given as

Q= m Cp ΔT

m=Mass

Cp=Specific heat capacity

ΔT=Temperature difference

By putting the values

55 x Cp ( 99.5 - 30.5) = 40 x 4.184 ( 30.5- 21 ) + 10 x ( 30.5 - 21)

Cp ( 99 .5- 30.5) = 30.65

Cp= 0.44 J/g.C

This is heat capacity of metal.

The distance from the Earth to the Sun equals 1 AU. Neptune is 30 AU from the Sun. How far is Neptune from the Earth?AU

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Depending on the relative position of the Earth the Sun and Neptune in the Earths orbit the distances are;

The closest (minimum) distance of Neptune from the Earth is 29 AU

The farthest (maximum) distance of Neptune fro the Earth is 31 AU

Explanation:

The following parameters are given;

The distance from the Earth to the Sun = 1 AU

The distance of Neptune from the Earth = 30 AU

We have;

When the Sun is between the Earth and Neptune, the distance is found by the relation;

Distance from the Earth to Neptune = 30 + 1 = 31 AU

When the Earth is between the Sun and Neptune, the distance is found by the relation;

Distance from the Earth to Neptune = 30 - 1 = 29 AU

Therefore, the closest distance from Neptune to the Earth in the Earth's Orbit is 29 AU

The farthest distance from Neptune to the Earth in the Earth's orbit is 31 AU.
