What do conduction, radiation, and convection work together to do?

1 answer:

6 0

Well, conduction is the passing of heat by touch. Convection is the passing along of heat by movement (e.g. hot air rising from a radiator to heat the rest of the room), and radiation is the heating of something through electromagnetic rays without any contact. For example, the earth absorbs the heat radiated from the son (radiation). The air that touches the earth gets warmed up (conduction), and rises, and as it rises, it passes its heat along to more air around it (convection).

A child with a mass of 23 kg rides a bike with a mass of 5.5 kg at a velocity of 4.5 m/s to the south. Compare the momentum of t

serg [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass of child = 23 kg

Mass of bike = 5.5 kg

Velocity = 4.5 m/s

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

$Momentum = mass * velocity$

To find the momentum of each of them;

I. Momentum of the child

Momentum C = mass * velocity

Momentum C = 23 * 4.5

Momentum C = 103.5 Kgm/s

II. Momentum of the bike

Momentum B = mass * velocity

Momentum B = 5.5 * 4.5

Momentum B = 24.75 Kgm/s

Hence, we can deduce from the calculations that the momentum of the child is greater than that of the bike because of the higher mass possessed by the child.

Which of the following are transferred or shared when two atoms react chemically? *

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

One of the basic principles of chemistry is the electrostatic attraction between atoms or compounds. Electrons are on the outside of an atoms and that's where the charges come from and the interaction between those charges is what happens during a chemical bond. Therefore the answer would be electrons.
