Why is it better to wear a white shirt on a hot summer day instead of a black shirt?

Physics
1 answer:
Ronch [10]3 years ago

When all that body heat hits the white clothing covering it, it gets reflected right back towards the body. ... The best color to keep cool in the heat, it turns out, is to wear black. Black absorbs everything coming in from the sun, sure. But black also absorbs energy from the body instead of reflecting it back.

Which of the following would most likely be considered nonpoint source pollution
fredd [130]
The best answer is b) increased turbidity from erosion.

Nonpoint source pollution generally happens as a result of many systems interacting, and is not directly attributed to one event or pollutant. Generally, natural environmental systems participate in pollution of this kind, regardless of whether or not human activity was a factor. Examples include water runoff, or erosion. 

The other pollutants listed have a direct cause and direct effect, the animal waste goes directly from the animals to the ground they live on, the car shop directly sumps the oil on the ground, and the oil tank leaks directly into the earth. Erosion causing turbidity is a less direct form of pollution, and is due to the synthesis of several natural phenomena<span />

Artyom0805 [142]
The wind Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns the propeller-like blades of a turbine around a rotor, which spins a generator, which creates electricity.

If you are driving 80 km/h along a straight road and you look to the side for 2.1 s , how far do you travel during this inattent
ella [17]
Velocity = displacement / time

First, Always make sure that your units for things are the same. In this question, we are given time in seconds and hours. So, we need to make them all use 1 unit.

I will do seconds.

To convert 80km/h to m/s, divide by 3.6.

22.2222…. m/s = displacement / 2.1s

Multiply by 2.1s on both sides

46.6666……m = displacement

You travelled 47 meters.

A. aluminum, iron, and silver only

Explanation:

metal elements are great conductors; aluminum, iron, and silver are all metals.

plastic isn't an element, but it still doesn't conduct electricity very well because it isn't a metal

(so I would leave out plastic, because you can only choose 3 max based on the answer choices)
