16. Solids cannot transport heat through convection. Because solids are stuck in place so they can't flow and since they can't flow, there is no convection.
17. It is because the metal conducts heat faster that it feels colder than the wood, which conducted heat slower. In other words metals are good conductors of heat. It takes away your body heat as you touch it and which makes your body temperature to drop, therefore you feel the coldness when you touch a piece of metal.

A capacitor with air between its plates ischarged to 60 V and then disconnected fromthe battery. When a piece of glass is placed
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

       k = 1.30

Explanation:

For this exercise let's write the capacitance in air and with dielectric

air             C₀ = Q / DV

dielectric  C = k Q / DV

They tell us that the capacitor is charged and then the battery is disconnected, therefore the charge stored on the plate remains constant.

                         

therefore the capacitance a changes to the value

           C = k C₀

The voltage in the presence of dielectric must meet the relationship

           ΔV = ΔV₀ / k

           k = ΔV₀ /ΔV

let's calculate

           k = 60/46

           k = 1.30
