Explanation:
The given data for case (1) is as follows.
h = 20 cm = 0.2 m
Assuming that a rectangular slab is placed above the pipe and we will calculate the heat transfer as follows.
Q =
where, A = area
L = length
k = thermal conductivity = 0.8 W/m
= change in temperature.
Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.
Q =
=
= 168 W
For case (2), h = 180 cm = 1.8 m
Therefore, heat lost will be calculated as follows.
Q =
=
= 18.67 W
Thus, we can conclude that 18.67 W heat lost if the pipe was buried at a depth of 180 cm.
The answer should be "by convection" not by radiation.
Answer:
C. It blocked out sunlight
Explanation:
The asteroid impact 65 million years ago was devastating for lot of the animals and plants, resulting in a mass extinction, most noticeably of the dinosaurs. The impact itself killed a lot of flora and fauna, but it was the effect afterward that was crucial. From this impact, there was so much debris propelled into the atmosphere that the sunlight got blocked. Once this happened, most of the plants died out as they were not able to perform photosynthesis. Because the plants were dying out, the herbivores were left without food, so soon they followed, and because the herbivores died out, the predators died out to because they were left without food. The winners turned out to be the small and not specialized plants and animals.
Answer:
because hard water is salty
