Why does conduction occur more slowly in gases than in solids?​

Onduction in gas is slower than in liquids and solids because the particles in a gas collide less often. Conduction in metals is faster because the electrons are free to move about

What affects the braking distance and thinking distance
Radda [10]
Your speed is one of the only factors that has an effect on both your thinking distance and braking distance. Put simply, the faster you are going, the greater the distance travelled before you apply the brakes (thinking distance) and the vehicle comes to a complete stop (braking distance).

ss7ja [257]

When we cook a marshmallow on a metal poker tool over an open flame, there are three ways in which heat energy is transferred: Conduction, convection, and radiation.

<h3>Heat energy transfer</h3>

Heat transfer is the natural transfer of heat from an object with a higher temperature to an object with a lower temperature. Heat transfer can occur in three ways, namely conduction, convection, and  radiation.

  1. Conduction occurs when heat flows from a place with a high temperature to a place with a lower temperature using a fixed heat-conducting medium. Heat transfer from the open flame to the marshmallows via direct fire contact with the marshmallows is an example of conduction.
  2. Convection is the transfer of heat by means of a stream in which the intermediate substance also moves. If the particles move and cause heat to propagate, convection will occur. The hot air rising from the flames burning the marshmallows is an example of convection.
  3. Radiation is heat transfer without a medium. Radiation can also usually be accompanied by light. The direct transfer of heat from the flame to the marshmallow in the form of waves is an example of radiation.

A worker assigned to the restoration of the Washington Monument is checking the condition of the stone at the very top of the mo
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy of the nickel at the top of the monument is 8.29 J.

Explanation:

We can find the gravitational potential energy using the following  formula.

GPE=mgh

Identifying given information.

The nickel has a mass m=0.005 \,kg, and it is a the top of Washington Monument.

The Washington Monument has a height of h=555 \, ft, thus we need to find the equivalence in meters using unit conversion in  order to find the gravitational potential energy.

Converting from feet to meters.

Using the conversion factor 1 m = 3.28 ft, we have

h = 555 \, ft \times \cfrac{1 \, m}{3.28 \, ft}

That give u s

h = 169.2 \, m

Finding Gravitational Potential Energy.

We can replace the height and mass on the formula

GPE=mgh

And we get

GPE=(0.005)(9.8)(169.2) \, J

\boxed{GPE=8.29 \,J}

The gravitational potential energy of the nickel at the top of the monument is 8.29 J.

Lelu [443]

The easiest way to answer this question is just to get the answer first. The answer is A with the added comment that no chemical reaction has taken place.

Layered means that the chemicals are not soluble in one another. B is not the answer.

C is eliminated by what what was said about A.

D a solution is not a pure substance (singular) by itself. There are at least 2 chemicals together.
