Explanation:

  • A thermometer does measure the temperature of a body and not the heat. It is known that temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy.

Therefore, the statement a thermometer measures  the average kinetic energy  of a substance is correct.

  • Heat is a form of energy as it can make a colder substance become hot and it moves from one place to another. Thus, the statement heat is a form of energy is correct.
  • Also, heat flows from hotter substance to colder substance. Hence, the statement heat flows from a colder  substance to a hotter  substance is correct.
  • Convection is a property of fluids or gases which makes less denser (hot) material to rise and more denser (colder) material to sink.

Therefore, the statement convection occurs only  in liquids and gases is correct.

  • All substances radiate heat is an incorrect statement. For example, a thermos bottle does not radiate heat.
  • Temperature of our body is about 98.4 degree celsius and hence we can conclude that the statement our body temperature is  always equal to the  temperature around us is incorrect.

A material that provides resistance to the flow of electric current is called a(n)
enyata [817]

Th correct answer to this question would be, Insulator. Notice in the question it says "Material". The question is basically asking, What item resists the flow of and electric current. A resistor is a device that suppose to strain the electric  current. And resistance is the measure of how well the material can conduct an electric charge. With all of that being stated, Insulator materials include paper, dry wood, rubber, glass, ect. Insulator products provides resistance.

Make sure you read the questions very carefully.

A scientist completely dissolves gaseous oxygen into a container of liquid water. Which of the following best describes the cont
sdas [7]

Answer:

Forgive me if I'm wrong but I think the answer is C.

Explanation:

I say this because liquid water is H20 (a combination of two elements) and Oxygen is a singular element. Compound is defined as a thing that is composed of two or more separate elements and thus, I think it's C.
