Answer:

conduction

Explanation:

Conduction is a method of heat transfer, where two objects exchange heat by touching, but does not contribute to moving heat through earth's atmosphere, because the atmosphere is so sparse it does not transmit heat through conduction effectively. Insulation is not a method of heat transfer.

Car A is traveling west at 40 mi/h and car B is traveling north at 40 mi/h. Both are headed for the intersection of the two road
Gwar [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

    \frac{dx}{dt} = -40 mi/h,     \frac{dx}{dt} = -40 mi/h

The negative sign indicates that x and y are decreasing.

We have to find \frac{dz}{dt}. Equation for the given variables according to the Pythagoras theorem is as follows.

              z^{2} = x^{2} + y^{2}

Now, we will differentiate each side w.r.t 't' as follows.

        2z\frac{dz}{dt} = 2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}

or,          \frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})

So, when x = 4 mi, and y = 3 mi then z = 5 mi.

As,       \frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})

                       = \frac{1}{5}(4 \times (-40) + 3 \times (-40))

                       = \frac{-140 - 120}{5}

                       = 52

Thus, we can conclude that the cars are approaching at a rate of 52 mi/h.
