How does radiation differ from conduction? (4 points)

1 answer:

7 0

The difference between radiation and conduction is that radiation is described as he transfer of heat energy by electromagnetic waves without involving particles. Conduction is described as the flow of heat from one solid to another, using a hot knife as an example.

A gas at 5.00 atm pressure was stored in a tank during the winter at 5.0 °C. During the summer, the temperature in the storage a

saw5 [17]

Answer:

a) 5.63 atm

Explanation:

We can use combined gas law

<em>The combined gas law</em> combines the three gas laws:

Boyle's Law, (P₁V₁ =P₂V₂)
Charles' Law (V₁/T₁ =V₂/T₂)
Gay-Lussac's Law. (P₁/T₁ =P₂/T₂)

It states that the ratio of the product of pressure and volume and the absolute temperature of a gas is equal to a constant.

P₁V₁/T₁ =P₂V₂/T₂

where P = Pressure, T = Absolute temperature, V = Volume occupied

The volume of the system remains constant,

So, P₁/T₁ =P₂/T₂

a) $\frac{5}{278} =\frac{P_2}{313} \\\\P_2=\frac{5*313}{278}\\ P_2 = 5.63 atm$

One knife is longer from the cutting edge to the back of the blade. It's easier to push the longer knife through a pear and more

AlladinOne [14]

By the formula of torque balance we know that

$\tau = r\times F$

here we know that

r = distance of force

F = applied force

so here we know that as we will take large edge knife then the distance of force will increase

due to this the torque will also increase in it so it is easy to pear it

So here we can say

$F_{in}r_1 = F_{out}r_2$

$F_{out} = \frac{r_1}{r_2} F_{in}$

so output force will increase in this case

So here the correct answer would be

<em>b. the longer the knife, the stronger the output force</em>

If the universe is infinite, then how come there are things disappearing from the horizon? I was at a point in this video (TRUE

True [87]

Answer:

The big rip theory

Explanation:

I believe what you are referring to is the big rip theory, in which the universe expands faster than the speed of light Kurzgesagt refers to it as a "horizon" but in reality it's a little more complicated than that. Eventually the expansion of the universe will accelerate far beyond the speed of light creating space between molecules until eventually all matter is fleeting and the entire universe is an endlessly vast cosmic void with not but the occasion molecule left from a time when things weren't so lonely.

If our year were twice as long (that is, if Earth took twice as many days to complete each orbit around the Sun), but Earth's ro

Flauer [41]

Answer:

the four seasons would each be twice as long as they are now

Explanation:

A year is the result of the Earths revolution around the sun i.e., the Earth takes 365 days to complete one revolution around the sun. A day is the result of the Earth's rotation on its axis i.e., it takes 24 hours for Earth to complete one rotation on its axis.

The Earth is titled by about 23.5 degrees, this results in the seasons of Earth. The distance from the sun has nothing to do with the seasons. During the northern hemisphere winter the Earth is actually closer to the sun than in the summer. So, if our year was twice as long then the seasons would be twice as long.
