The student quickly discovers that placing the marshmallow over the flame is more effective than heating the marshmallow on the

side of the flame. According to the information above, what type of heat transfer is present when the marshmallow is above the fire that is not present when the marshmallow is on the side of the fire

Answer:

The answer is convection.

Explanation:

There are three types of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation.

  • Conduction occurs when two objects touch each other and transfer heat.
  • Convection occurs when an object heats its surrounding fluid (like air, or water) and, since the hot fluids are less dense than the cold ones, they go up. So convection is a type of heat transfer that usually goes from down to up.
  • Radiation occurs when objects emanate heat in the form of electromagnetic waves that propagates in all directions.

So in this case, when the marshmallow is above the fire, it is exposed to convection, which does not occur when it is on the side of the fire.

Vikki [24]

Answer:

<em>20 m/s in the same direction of the bus.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Relative Motion </u>

Objects movement is always related to some reference. If you are moving at a constant speed, all the objects moving with you seem to be at rest from your reference, but they are moving at the same speed as you by an external observer.

If we are riding on a bus at 10 m/s and throw a ball which we see moving at 10 m/s in our same direction, then an external observer (called Ophelia) will see the ball moving at our speed plus the relative speed with respect to us, that is, at 20 m/s in the same direction of the bus.

Frequency is measured in units called?
irina1246 [14]
The frequency, f, of a wave is the number of waves passing a point in a certain time. We normally use a time of one second, so this gives frequency the unit hertz (Hz), since one hertz is equal to one wave per second.

Approximately how much air is in a column 1-cm2 in cross section that extends from sea level to the top of the atmosphere?
laila [671]

Approximately 101 N air is in a column 1-cm2 in cross-section that extends from sea level to the top of the atmosphere

The basic level for determining height and depth on Earth is the sea level. The ocean's surface tends to seek the same level since it is one continuous body of water. However, the sea level is never fully level due to winds, currents, river discharges, and changes in gravity and temperature.

At the equator, the radius of the Earth at sea level is 6378.137 km (3963.191 mi). At the poles, it is 6,356.752 km (3,949.903 km), and on average, it is 6,371.001 km (3,958.756 mi). The elevation of the shoreline—the boundary between the ocean and the land—is referred to as sea level. Land that is higher than this altitude is above sea level, and land that is lower is below sea level.

2. A portion of the body receives 0.15 mGy from radiation with a quality factor Q = 6 and 0.22 mGy from radiation with Q = 10. (
DiKsa [7]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

D_1=0.15mGy

D_2=0.22mGy

Q_1=6

Q_2=10

a.We have to find the total dose

Total dose=D=D_1+D_2

Using the formula then, we get

D=0.15+0.22

D=0.37mGy

b.We have to find the total dose equivalent

Total dose equivalent=H=D_1Q_1+D_2Q_2

Using the formula

H=0.15(6)+0.22(10)

H=3.1mSv
