Answer: Radiation

Explanation:

There are three ways in which the thermal transfer occurs:

   1. By Conduction, when the transmission is by the <u>direct contact</u>.

  2. By Convection, heat transfer <u>in fluids </u>(like water or the air, for example).  

   3. By Radiation, by the <u>electromagnetic waves</u> (they can travel through any medium and in <u>vacumm</u>)

So, in the outter space is vacuum, this means the energy cannot be transmitted by convection, nor conduction. It must be transmitted by electromagnetic waves that are able to travel with or without a medium, and this is called radiation.

A steel bridge is 1000 m long at -20°C in winter. What is the change in length when the temperature rises to 40°C in summer? The
xenn [34]

Answer:

ΔL = 0.66 m

Explanation:

The change in length on an object due to rise in temperature is given by the following equation of linear thermal expansion:

ΔL = αLΔT

where,

ΔL = Change in Length of the bridge = ?

α = Coefficient of linear thermal expansion = 11 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

L = Original Length of the Bridge = 1000 m

ΔT = Change in Temperature =  Final Temperature - Initial Temperature

ΔT = 40°C - (-20°C) = 60°C

Therefore,

ΔL = (11 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹)(1000 m)(60°C)

<u>ΔL = 0.66 m</u>

A massless string connects a 10.00 kg mass to a 13.00 kg cart which is resting on a frictionless horizontal surface. The mass ha
ch4aika [34]

The cart's acceleration to the right after the mass is released  is determined as 7.54 m/s².

<h3>Acceleration of the cart</h3>

The acceleration of the cart is determined from the net force acting on the mass-cart system.

Upward force = Downward force

ma = mg

13a = 10(9.8)

13a = 98

a = 98/13

a = 7.54 m/s²

Thus, the cart's acceleration to the right after the mass is released  is determined as 7.54 m/s².
