Answer:
<u>Radiation is the transfer of energy by waves, and conduction is the transfer of heat through contact with air.</u>
Explanation:
Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy through direct contact. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through thermal emission.
Answer: 0.25m/s2
Explanation:
Acceleration is change in velocity with time
V = final velocity = 5m/s
U =Initial velocity = 3m/s
t = time = 8s
a = Acceleration =?
a = V — U / t
a = (5 — 3) / 8
a = 2/8
a = 0.25m/s2
Answer: Insufficient amount of work provided.
Explanation:
The correct answer is - 1 cm/yr.
Alongside the western coast of South America, the Nazca plate and the South American plate are in a collision for several million years now, with the Nazca plate being the one that is subducting in this convergent plate boundary.
If the Nazca plate's focus has moved 1,000 km in the last 10 million years, than in order to get to the annual movement of the subduction we need to convert the km into cm first:
1 km = 10,000 cm
1,000 x 10,000 = 10,000,000
1,000 km = 10,000,000 cm
Than we need to divide the number of cm with the number of years:
10,000,000 / 10,000,000 = 1
And we get the result of 1 cm/yr.
