Answer: b- covection

Explanation:

Conduction: It is the circulation or transfer of heat through a metal or solid. For example, heat generated inside an enclosure can be transferred to the outer surface by means of conduction.so therefore conduction can not be the answer.

Convection is the circulation or tansfer of heat from a surface by means of a fluid such as air. Natural convection happens when air is heated: it expands, rises, and is replaced by cooler air. The amount of convection may be increased by using a fan to increase the flow of air.Likewise,Ducts are used to circulate air in the system. Since, air is circulated in the system, heat is transfered by convection.Hence,the answer is B-convection.

Radiation: Here, energy is radiated through the air by means of electromagnetic radiation. Since heat transfer through raidation does not involve contact between the heated object and the heated source,so energy is lost as light or through electromagnetic radiation. So C is wrong.

An electromagnetic wave has a frequency of and is traveling in a vacuum. The magnetic field is given by ______.
Reptile [31]

Answer:

c) true. With the magnetic field you can determine the Poynting vector and this is equal to the intensity of the wave

Explanation:

An electromagnetic wave carries energy that is given by the vector of poyntíng

     S = 1 / μ₀ E x B

The electric and magnetic fields are related

     E = c B

Substituting

     S = c /μ₀ B² / 2

The two comes from the average value

Let's examine the claims

a) false to determine the wavelength the frequency is needed

b) False. To find the electric field you need the magnetic field

c) true. With the magnetic field you can determine the Poynting vector and this is equal to the intensity of the wave

How can wind put off fire?
kipiarov [429]
♥ If the wind is strong enough it can do so.
♥ By having a strong enough wind you can blow out the fire before the flame can consume any more vapor.
♥ If the wind is fast enough, like a birthday cake candle for example, the wind will burn out.
