Heat transfers through Earth's systems in different ways. In which atmospheric action can we see evidence of conduction? Cold ai

r pushes warm air upward, creating a current. Cold air pushes warm air upward, creating a current. The surface of the Earth heats the air that contacts it. The surface of the Earth heats the air that contacts it. Radiation from the Sun heats the surface of the Earth. Radiation from the Sun heats the surface of the Earth. Air increases in density and sinks back towards the Earth.

Answer:

B. The surface of the Earth heats the air that contacts it.

Explanation:

Conduction is a mode of heat transfer in which energy is transferred from a hot molecule to the neighboring molecules due to contact. Thus, heat energy is transferred from one molecule to another in the process.

Therefore, the air that comes in contact with the surface of the earth heats up by conduction. Since the surface of the earth is heated up due to the radiation from the Sun.

The time of motion of the track star is determined as 0.837 s.

<h3>Time of motion of the track star</h3>

The time of motion of the track star is calculated as follows;

T = (2u sinθ)/g

where;

  • T is time of motion
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • θ is angle of projection

T = (2 x 12 x sin20)/9.8

T = 0.837 s

A bicyclist in the Tour de France crests a mountain pass as he moves at 18 km/h. At the bottom, 4.0 km farther, his speed is at
Allisa [31]

We are given:

v0 = initial velocity = 18 km/h

d = distance = 4 km

v = final velocity = 75 km/h

a =?

<span>
We can solve this problem by using the formula:</span>

v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a d

 

75^2 = 18^2 + 2 (a) * 4

5625 = 324 + 8a

<span>a = 662.625 km/h^2</span>

Why you cannot use an elastic measuring tape to measure distance. What problem you may face if you use it
Stells [14]

The problem you would encounter is measuring the height of two different people, a tall one and a short one, and getting the same answer for both of them.

No matter WHAT we're hearing out of the White House these days, you CAN'T bend and stretch your standard measuring devices, or any other 'facts', to make them fit the thing that you're measuring.  This does not work.  You're always entitled to your own opinions, but you're not entitled to your own facts.
