Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The difference in temperature when per unit of heat flux is required by one unit of heat flux between a barrier of warmer and colder surface present in steady state condition is known as R-value.

Mathematically, R-value = $\frac{\text{Temperature difference}\times \text{Area}\times \text{Time}}{Heat loss}$

Thermal resistance of insulating products or materials can be known with the help of R-value. As more is the r-value of a substance more will be its insulating power.

Therefore, we can conclude that insulating materials are rated by their r-value.

Without using a micrometer screw gauge, how do I find the average diameter of a long piece of thin wire using a metre rule and a

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Wind the long piece of thin wire around the uniform glass rod multiple times, find the length of the total diameters using the metre ruler, and divide by the number of times you wound it around the rod.

Explanation:

Since the diameter of one long piece of thin wire is too thin to be measured by a metre ruler, you can wind it multiple times and push it side by side to get a length you can measure.

For example, if you wound it around 20 times and the total length of 20 diameters of the wire side-by-side is 2.0 cm, one winding, which is the diameter would be 2.0cm ÷ 20 = 0.10cm or 1mm.

If you are driving 95 km????h along a straight road and you look to the side for 2.0 s, how far do you travel during this inatte

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

52.7 m

Explanation:

Given that

speed of the vehicle, v = 95 km/h

time of inattentiveness, t = 2 s

distance travelled, s = ?

Since we have the speed in km/h and the time in s, it would be best if we converted one of them to make sure we have all units in the same rank.

95 km/h = 95 * 1000/3600 m/s

95 km/h = 95000/3600 m/s

95 km/h = 26.38 m/s

Now, we use our derived speed in m/s

Speed of a moving vehicle is given by,

v = s/t, where

v = speed in m/s

s = distance travelled, in m

t = time spent, in s

if we make d the subject of formula by rearranging the equation, we have

s = v * t

distance travelled, s = 26.38 * 2

distance travelled, s = 52.7 m

therefore, during this inattentive period, 52.7 m was travelled.
