The answer is b) false. Stars are mainly classified by their spectra (the elements they absorb) and their temperature.
A shield volcano i believe. hope this helped
Answer:
A. Equal to and Opposite
Explanation:
when there is no External force acting on the system of bodies then Net momentum of the system is Conserved .
Given that there are 2 bodies
Let P₁ as first object's momentum
P₂ as second object's momentum.
Total Momentum =P₁ + P₂
As there is no external force acying on the system
Change in the Total momentum is zero
so,
0 = Δ P₁ + ΔP₂
ΔP₂ = -ΔP₁
negative sign indicates opposite direction.
Both are of equal magnitude.
<u>Answer:</u>
Specific Heat
<u>Explanation:</u>
Specific heat is the measurement which describes the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a material by one degree Celsius.
It is the amount of heat required per unit mass to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. The relationship between heat and the temperature change is usually expressed as shown below:
Δ
where
= heat added,
= specific heat,
=mass; and
Δ
= change in temperature
Answer:
The thermal energy is carried by electromagnetic waves
Explanation:
There are three types of transfer of heat (thermal energy):
- Conduction: conduction occurs when two objects/two substances are in contact with each other. The heat is transferred from the hotter object to the colder object by the collisions between the molecules of the two mediums.
- Convection: convection occurs when a fluid is heated by an external source of heat. The part of the fluid closer to the heat source gets warmer, therefore it becomes less dense and it rises, and it is replaced by the colder part of the fluid, which is colder. Then, this part of fluid is heated as well, so it gets warmer, it rises, etc.. in a cycle.
- Radiation: radiation occurs when thermal energy is carried by electromagnetic waves. Since electromagnetic waves do not need a medium to propagate, this is the only method of heat transfer that can occur through a vacuum (so, in space as well).
Indeed, the Sun emits a lot of electromagnetic radiation, which travels through space and eventually reaches the Earth, heating it.
