Answer:
c. expanded polyurethane
Explanation:
Thermal performance of a building fabric is measured in terms of heat loss and is expressed as U-value or R-value. U-value is the rate of heat transferred through a structure divided by the difference in temperature across the structure with a unit of measurement of W/m²K.You can calculate the U-value of a by getting the reciprocal of the sum of thermal resistances , R, making the building material.
If you have the value of R, then U=1/R
Material size R U
plywood 1" 1.25 0.8
Poured concrete 2" 0.99 1.010
Expanded polyurethane 1" 6.5 0.1538
Asbestos shingles 1" 0.03 33.33
The material with lowest U-value is expanded polyurethane
Correct choices are marked in bold:
travel in straight lines and can bounce off surfaces --> TRUE, normally electromagnetic waves travel in straight lines, however they can be reflected by objects, bouncing off their surfaces
travel through space at the speed of light --> TRUE, all electromagnetic waves in space (vacuum) travel at the speed of light,
)
travel only through matter --> FALSE; electromagnetic waves can also travel through vacuum
travel only through space --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves can also travel through matter
can bend around objects --> TRUE, this is what happens for instance when diffraction occurs: electromagnetic waves are bended around obstacles or small slits
move by particles bumping into each other --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, so no particles are involved
move by the interaction between an electric field and a magnetic field --> TRUE, electromagnetic waves consist of an electric field and a magnetic field oscillating in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave
Answer:
A
Explanation:
A. The molecules that make up olive oil are longer than those that
make up alcohol, so they have more resistance to sliding past one
another.
Olive oils are unsaturated fats with many carbons whereas, alcohols are typically short with very few carbons.
Explanation:
The structural diversity of carbon-based molecules is determined by following properties:
1. the ability of those bonds to rotate freely,
2.the ability of carbon to form four covalent bonds,
3.the orientation of those bonds in the form of a tetrahedron.
