Answer:

C.Vacuum

Explanation:

There are three methods of transfer of heat:

1) Conduction: conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact between the molecules of two objects (or two substances). The particles of the hotter object vibrate faster than the particles of the colder object, so energy is transferred by collisions of the molecules from the hotter object to the colder object.

2) Convection: convection is the transfer of heat by mass movement of molecules. This occurs in fluids (liquids or gases), when an external source of heat is applied to the fluid. As a result, the part of the fluid closer to the source gets warmer, so it becomes less dense and rises, while the colder part sinks and replaces the hotter part, forming a convective current. The process continues until the heat source is removed.

3) Radiation: radiation is the transfer of heat carried by electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves can travel in any medium and in a vacuum, so they are the only type of heat transfer that can occur in a vacuum (while conduction and convection cannot occur in a vacuum).

3. Which planet, other than Earth, is confirmed to have water on it?

Nadusha1986 [10]

Mars.

Water exists as small amounts of ice on Mars and as water vapor. It is suspected that Mars used to have flowing water on it, but that there is none left now.

What is the density of a piece of quartz with a mass of 30g and a volume of 6cm^3

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf d= 5 \ g/cm^3}}$

Explanation:

Density can be found by dividing the mass by the volume.

$d=\frac{m}{v}$

The mass of the quartz is 30 grams and the volume is 6 cubic centimeters.

$m=30 \ g \\v= 6 \ cm^3$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$d=\frac{30 \ g}{6 \ cm^3}$

Divide.

$d= 5 \ g/cm^3$

The density of this piece of quartz is 5 grams per cubic centimeter.

Answer:

A fire hose must be able to shoot water to the top of a building 35.0 m tall ... Water enters this hose at a steady rate of 0.500 m3/s and shoots out of a round nozzle. ... I know that Flow rate=0.500 m3/s=A*V. I know the pressure needed to ... The first equation has no potential while the second has no kinetic.

A cannonball is fired on flat ground

algol [13]

hmax = 5740.48 m. The maximum height that a cannonball fired at 420 m/s at a 53.0° angles is 5740.48m.

This is an example of parabolic launch. A cannonball is fired on flat ground at 420 m/s at a 53.0° angle and we have to calculate the maximum height that it reach.

V₀ = 420m/s and θ₀ = 53.0°

So, when the cannonball is fired it has horizontal and vertical components:

V₀ₓ = V₀ cos θ₀ = (420m/s)(cos 53°) = 252.76 m/s

V₀y = V₀ cos θ₀ = (420m/s)(cos 53°) = 335.43m/s

When the cannoball reach the maximum height the vertical velocity component is zero, that happens in a tₐ time:

Vy = V₀y - g tₐ = 0

tₐ = V₀y/g

tₐ = (335.43m/s)/(9.8m/s²) = 34.23s

Then, the maximum height is reached in the instant tₐ = 34.23s:

h = V₀y tₐ - 1/2g tₐ²

hmax = (335.43m/s)(34.23s)-1/2(9.8m/s²)(34.23s)²

hmax = 11481.77m - 5741.29m

hmax = 5740.48m
