NASA developed a reflective foil barrier to help shield spacecraft from heat transfer in space. These reflective barriers are no
morpeh [17]

Answer: Radiation

Explanation: Radiation is the energy that comes from a source in form of electromagnetic waves, subatomic particles, light, or heat which travels through space.

Examples of radiation include the light, heat, and particles emitted from the Sun.

Using a foil barrier to prevent heat transfer is possible because foil has a silver color, and silver reflects light and heat instead of absorbing them. This is the opposite of black surfaces that absorb heat.

So in homes where these foil reflective barriers are used, the transfer of heat through Radiation is highly reduced.

a sponge and a bar of soap occupy the same amount of space, but the soap is much more dense than the sponge
Alex Ar [27]
Yes, that's correct.  That's a big part of the reason why
the soap floats in water and the sponge sinks in it.

An office heater puts out 2050 btus of energy in the form of heat per hour. given that 1 btus =1.055 kj, how many megajoules of
ivolga24 [154]
<span>Assuming continuous operation (24/7), we can say that

Energy produced : Energy per hour * 24 (number of hours in a day) - 365 (number of days in a year.

Energy per hour: 2050 * 1.055 = 2162.75 kg.

So, we proceed to calculate the results

E: 2162.75 * 24 * 365 = 18,945,690 kj per year.

Now, we transform kj to megajoule, remembering that kilo is 10*3 and mega is 1'*6, so we divide the result by 1,000 in order to get the results in megajoules, and the answer would be:

18,945.69 megajoules can be produced per year.</span>

Friction provides the force needed for a car to travel around a flat, circular race track. What is the maximum speed at which a
blagie [28]

Answer:

The maximum speed at which the car can safety travel around the track is 18.6m/s.

Explanation:

Since the car is in circular motion, there has to be a centripetal force F_c. In this case, the only force that applies for that is the static frictional force f_sbetween the tires and the track. Then, we can write that:

f_s=F_c

And since f_s\leq \mu N and F_c=\frac{mv^{2}}{r}, we have:

\mu N\geq \frac{mv^{2}}{r}

Now, if we write the vertical equation of motion of the car (in which there are only the weight and the normal force), we obtain:

N-mg=0\\\\\\implies N=mg

Substituting this expression for N and solving for v, we get:

\mu mg\geq \frac{mv^{2}}{r}\\\\v\leq \sqrt{\mu gr}

Finally, plugging in the given values for the coefficient of friction and the radius of the track, we have:

v\leq \sqrt{(0.42)(9.81m/s^{2})(84.0m)}\\\\v\leq 18.6m/s

It means that in its maximum value, the speed of the car is equal to 18.6m/s.
