Explain why energy from the sun cannot reach us by conduction or convection?

Physics

Answer:

It cannot reach us by conduction or convection as there is no medium such as air in most part of the space between the earth and the sun. From the sun the heat comes to us by another process known as radiation. The transfer of heat by radiation does not require any medium.

Answer:

Heat can't be transferred from sun to earth by conduction, because air is a bad conductor of heat. Convection is the transfer of heat in gases & liquids. Convection occurs when a heated fluid moves away from the source of heat and comes in contact with other substances, transferring some of their energy.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The  frequencies are  f_n  =  n (0.875 )

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The speed of the wave is  v  =  0.700 \  m/s

   The  length of vibrating  clothesline is  L  =  40.0 \  cm = 0.4 \ m

Generally the fundamental frequency is  mathematically represented as

        f =  \frac{v}{2 L  }

=>     f =  \frac{ 0.700 }{2 *  0.4   }

=>     f =  0.875 \  Hz

Now  this other frequencies of vibration experience by the clotheslines are know as harmonics and they are obtained by integer multiple of  the fundamental frequency

So  

   The  frequencies are mathematically represented as

       f_n  =  n  * f

=>     f_n  =  n (0.875 )

Where  n  =  1, 2, 3 ....

Compared to a blue star in the same local cluster, the surface temperature of a red star is a) greater. b) the same. c) lower. d
Andrew [12]

Hello! My name is Zalgo and I am here to help you out on this concluding day. The answer would be C);lower. The reason it would be lower is because the hottest color of flames would be blue. Considering the way a start emits light is fire, this would be the most logical reason for it.

I hope that this helps! :P

How long does a car (1000 kg) have a speed of 30 m/s from a rest if the engine power is 10kw
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: 90.1 s

Explanation:

Use equation for power:

P=F*V

Use eqation for force:

F=ma

F---force

V---velocity

Vr=om/s

V=30m/s

m=1000kg

P=10000W

---------------------------

P=FV

F=P/V

F=10000W/30m/s

F=333.33N

Use equation for force to find accelartaion.

F=ma

a=F/m

a=333.33N/1000kg

a=0.333 m/s²

Use equation for accelaration to find out time:

a=(V-Vs)/t

t=(V-Vs)/a

t=(30m/s)/(0.333m/s²)

t=90.09 s≈90.1 s

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of _______. The work done by the force causes t
QveST [7]

Answer:

(c) position

Explanation:

From the work-energy theorem, the workdone by a force on a body causes a change in kinetic energy of the body.

But, remember that the work done (W) by a force (F) on a body is the product of the force and the distance d, moved by the body caused by the force. i.e

W = F x d

This distance is a measure of the position of the body at a given instance.

Therefore, the work done is given by the force as a function of distance (or position).
