Physics

4 0

Answer:

b. radiation

Explanation:

The correct choice is

b. radiation

Radiation is the process of heat transfer where no medium is required. Air is present between hands and flame and thermal conductivity of air is very low.

The hands are not in direct contact with the flame, hence conduction process of heat transfer is not possible.

In convection process of heat transfer, we have the warmer part of the medium moving towards the colder part. hence the convection is also not responsible for transfer of heat in this scenario

What object best represents a true scale model of the shape of earth?
BabaBlast [244]
Any object that is spherical in shape would best represent a true scale model of the shape of the Earth. Examples are ping pong balls, billiard balls, marble and other smooth spherical objects. The shape of the Earth is called the oblate spheroid. The "oblate" would refer to an oblong shape and "spheroid" would refer to an almost spherical shape. The earth has on almost spherical shape and has a slightly oblong appearance. The diameter from the South pole to the north pole was measured to have a value of 12714 km while the diameter of the equator is approximately 12756 km. As you can see, the values are not equal. This makes the earth not a perfect sphere.

-4.3 light years what is the value of the 3??​
Radda [10]

Answer:

A light-year is a unit of distance. It is the distance that light can travel in one year. Light moves at a velocity of about 300,000 kilometers (km) each second. So in one year, it can travel about 10 trillion km. More p recisely, one light-year is equal to 9,500,000,000,000 kilometers

the net force on the right left is 25 N and is directed upward

the net force on the left one is zero because 200N force act upward and 200N force act downward so both cancel each other and net force is zero
