Conduction is what you feel if you rub your shoes in the carpet and touch something metal. The heat is transferred from the metal to your shoes. Another example is if inside a room and you touch a glass window that is facing the sun for quite a time.

Which phrase best describes sir isaac newton's contributions to modern science and therefore to the industrial revolution?
MrMuchimi
Can you please give the phrases? 

But, I'll help what I can.

First, he was the first to discover gravity. He was not bonked by the head by an apple, rather he watched an apple fall from a tree before he decided to explore gravity further. 

He was also the first scientist to be knighted, which is a great honor, as you can expect. 

Newton also developed The Three Laws of Motion. They are extremely important to physics and are considered some of the foundation for physics today. 

He also discovered calculus, which is complex math that is very helpful to scientists today. 

He also discovered the color spectrum using a glass prism, a dark room and window shade with a hole in it. He was able to project the color spectrum onto a piece of paper.

Those are the few I can think of now, but hope it helps!

a person hears an echo from the top of a tower , 2.2 second after the sound is produced.how far away is the tower from the perso
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

730.4 m

Explanation:

The sound waves travels with a uniform motion (=constant velocity), therefore we can calculate the distance it travels using the formula:

d=vt

where

d is the distance

v is the speed of the sound wave

t is the time taken

In this problem we have:

v = 332 m/s is the speed of sound in air

t = 2.2 s is the time elapsed

Therefore, the distance between the tower and the person is

d=(332)(2.2)=730.4 m

What Energy source that produces wind
svetoff [14.1K]
Wind is usually caused by a difference in pressure that causes wind to be "Pushed" on the surface of earth. Air usually moves from high to low pressure and that is what we call wind. Please hit the thanks button if this helped :)
