Dan got into his car in the middle of summer. When he sat on the hot black leather seats, he burned his legs. His sister said th

at conduction was the reason Dan burned his legs, but Dan blamed the sunshine and said it was radiation that caused him to get burned. Who was right and why?
Question 24 options:


Both Dan and his sister are right. The sun heated the car seats through radiation heat transfer, but then Dan touched the seat and the heat was conducted to his legs.


Dan was right because the sun heated the car without touching it. That is radiation.


Dan's sister was right because conduction can transfer heat through both solids and fluids (such as air).


Dan's sister was correct because Dan's legs touched the car seats. That is an indicator of heat transfer by conduction.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option D is correct one which is, "Dan's sister was correct because Dan's legs touched the car seats. That is an indicator of heat transfer by conduction".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Conduction is the method of heat energy transfer in which the microscopic vibrations are the cause of heat transfer from one en of the material to another.

The argument was on the burning of Dan's leg not the heating of car.

So in this manner only conduction responsible for the Dan's leg burning.

As Dan sat in the car, his leg touched the seat, heat energy transferred from seat to leg through conduction.

The correct answer is D) Dan's sister was correct because Dan's legs touched the car seats. That is an indicator of heat transfer by conduction.

Conduction only happens when a heated object touches a non-heated (or not as heated) object. Radiation did cause the car to become hot, but conduction caused Dan to get burned.

Hope this helps!! :D

29. What is E for a system which has the following two steps:
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Recall that;

E = q + w

Where;

q = heat, w = work done

When heat is absorbed by the system q is positive

When heat is evolved by the system q is negative

When the system does work, w is negative

When work is done on the system w is positive

Step 1

ΔE1= 60 KJ + 40 KJ = 100KJ

Step 2

ΔE2= (-30 KJ) + (-70 KJ) = (-100) KJ

ΔE1 + ΔE2= 100KJ + (-100) KJ = 0KJ

Which letter represents the activated complex?<br> 1. A<br> 2. B<br> 3. F<br> 4. G
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

2. B.

Explanation:

  • The letter B represents the activated complex.
  • The activated complex is the intermediate that is formed between the states of reactants "F" and products "G".

  • Letter A represents the activation energy of the reaction, that is the difference in potential energy between the reactants "F" and activated complex "B".

  • Letter C represents the enthalpy change of the reaction, that is the difference in potential energy between products "G" and reactants "F".

  • Letter D represents the potential energy of products "G".

  • Letter E represents the potential energy of reactants "E".

Why do scientists use models to study atoms?
umka2103 [35]
Because atoms are the small and can't be seen by your eyes. It is so small that scientists need to use a model. A model help scientists study things. So, scientists needs to study atoms using models.
