Answer: for insulation of heat

Explanation:

Windows in cold countries have double glazing windows to provide a barrier against the outside temperature by creating a buffer zone between two glasses.

The air or any other gas-filled between the glasses act as an insulator and offer great resistance to outside temperature thereby maintaining the inside temperature intact.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

-72.0°C

Explanation:

PV = nRT

Since n, number of moles, is constant:

PV / T = PV / T

(4.65×10⁶ Pa) V / (21 + 273.15) K = (1.06×10⁶ Pa) (3V) / T

T = 201.16 K

T = -72.0°C

Some steamboat restaurants use paper pots for their customers to boil the food themselves. What is the reason for the paper not
Ber [7]

Answer: D. 1,2,3 

The paper pots used in steamboat restaurants will not catch fire when in contact with the flame for the heat is conducted quickly to the water because the paper is thin and the burning temperature of the paper is much higher than the boiling point of water. Lastly, the texture of the paper is thick that it can withstand the temperature of the flame.

A planet moves fastest in its orbit around the sun when it is at which position?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

When it's closest to the sun.

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on a planet is equal to its mass times its centripetal acceleration.

Fg = m v^2 / r

The force of gravity is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation as:

Fg = mMG / r^2

Therefore:

mMG / r^2 = m v^2 / r

MG / r = v^2

v increases as r decreases.  So the planet is moving fastest when it's closest to the sun, also known as the <em>perihelion</em>.

When the electron in a hydrogen atom moves from n = 6 to n = 1, light with a wavelength of ________ nm is emitted?
Oduvanchick [21]
First we find the energy level with the following formula, where a is the energy level, n1 is the final energy level, n2 is the starting energy level and r is Rydberg's constant in Joules
a = r \times ( \frac{1}{n1}  -  \frac{1}{n2} )
We insert the values

a = 2.18 \times  {10}^{ - 18}  \times ( \frac{1}{ {1}^{2} } -  \frac{1}{ {6}^{2} }  )
= 2.12 \times {10}^{ - 18}
The wavelength is found with this formula, where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light
wavelength =  \frac{h \times c}{a}
Finally we insert the values
\frac{6.626 \times  {10}^{ - 34}  \times 3 \times  {10}^{8} }{2.12 \times  {10}^{ - 18} }  = 9.376 \times  {10}^{ - 8}
Which is the same as 93.8 nm
