Answer: Radiation

Explanation: Radiation is the energy that comes from a source in form of electromagnetic waves, subatomic particles, light, or heat which travels through space.

Examples of radiation include the light, heat, and particles emitted from the Sun.

Using a foil barrier to prevent heat transfer is possible because foil has a silver color, and silver reflects light and heat instead of absorbing them. This is the opposite of black surfaces that absorb heat.

So in homes where these foil reflective barriers are used, the transfer of heat through Radiation is highly reduced.

What is the avarage velocity of a car that travels 30 kilometers due west in 0.5 hours
Fed [463]
Velocity is distance over time v= \frac{d}{t}. If it wants it in km/h you're good to go otherwise if its m/s you need to convert km to m by multiplying 30 by 1000 and t in hours to seconds by multiplying 0.5 by 3600.

Nookie1986 [14]

Explanation:

We have,

The initial position of an object is zero.

The starting velocity is 3 m/s and the final velocity was 10 m/s.

The object moves with constant acceleration..

The area covered under the velocity-time graph gives displacement of the object. The correct option is "the area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle under the line".
