Answer:

Conduction is usually faster in certain solids and liquids than in gases. Materials that are good conductors of thermal energy are called thermal conductors. Metals are especially good thermal conductors because they have freely moving electrons that can transfer thermal energy quickly and easily.

Heat transfer by convection happens through the air, and there are millions of minuscule air spaces between the fibers. Heat transfer by radiation is also slow since one fiber must radiate its heat to another.

When we give heat then kinetic energy is increase and this heat is transferred from hot metal to cold metal through this free electrons. As in insulator the free electrons are negligible so that the heat is not transferred from hot junction to cold junction due to absence of this free electrons.

A man runs 800m due north in 110 seconds followed by 400m due suoth in 90 seconds calculate his average speed and his average ve
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Average speed is  6m/s

Average velocity is 5.859m/s

Explanation:

Average speed, s = d/t

d is distant

t is time

speed north is 800m and 110s

speed due south is 400m and 90s  

Average speed = (800+400) / (110+90)

                          = 1200/200

                          =6m/s

Average velocity V = (v + u)/2

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

V = (7.273 + 4.444)/2 = 11.717/2

V = 5.859m/s

If a skydiver weighs 800 N, what would air resistance be when he is at terminal velocity?
serg [7]
We call "terminal velocity" the constant speed of a falling body
when it is no longer accelerating.

We know that if a body is not accelerating, then the net force
on it is zero.

From the question, we know that the downward force of gravity
on the skydiver is 800 N.

If the 800 N downward plus the air resistance upward add up
to zero, then the air resistance upward must also be 800 N.

What are the different isotopes of carbon and which isotopes are relevant for carbon dating?
GuDViN [60]
Ans: Radiocarbon dating uses carbon isotopes.

Radiocarbon dating relies on the carbon isotopes carbon-14 and carbon-12. Scientists are looking for the ratio of those two isotopes in a sample. Most carbon on Earth exists as the very stable isotope carbon-12, with a very small amount as carbon-13.
