How a radiator quickly warms all the air in a room even though air is a poor thermal conductor?
IT is because warm air does out side and cooled air com inside
What else can I help you with?
Explain how a radiator quickly warms all the air in a room even though air is a poor thermal conductor?
A radiator heats the air around it through convection, where hot air rises and cold air sinks. As the air around the radiator warms up, it expands and becomes less dense, causing it to rise and circulate throughout the room. This creates a convection current that quickly distributes the warm air, despite air being a poor thermal conductor.
Is cold drink conductor or insulator?
The temperature of a drink does not change its innate properties. A drink will warm up though thermal conduction.
Is gold a good thermal conductor?
Gold is a relatively good thermal conductor, but not as high as materials like copper or silver. It has a thermal conductivity of about 320 W/mK, which means it can effectively transfer heat but is not the most efficient material for this purpose.
Is Polystyrene a good thermal conductor?
No, polystyrene is a poor thermal conductor. Its structure with trapped air pockets makes it a good insulator, which means it does not conduct heat well. This makes polystyrene commonly used in thermal insulation applications.
Is gold cunductor of heat or electricity?
Gold is a good thermal conductor (looks like only copper and silver are better - see engineeringtoolbox dot com) Gold is also a good electrical conductor. Copper and silver are a little better, though.
Is gold a thermal conductor?
Yes, it is. It is better than aluminum, but not as good as copper. Aluminum is often used in heat sinks, though, because it is cheaper than gold or copper.
What material best transfer heat?
Metals are known to be good conductors of heat as well as good conductors of electricity. Diamond is an exception though, being one of the best thermal conductors but a very poor electrical conductor.
Is milk insulator or conductor?
Milk is mostly water, so it can conduct electricity, though not so well as a metal does. If you mean thermal conduction, then liquids are usually poor conductors, but they can transfer heat by convection.
Is polyester a conductor?
No polyester is not a good conductor of electricity, it is a pretty good insulator though.
Why storage heaters contain concrete blocks though the specific heat capacity of concrete's lower than water?
Because water is a fluid so heat can transfer by convection to the surface of the radiator can be 'radiated' into the room very quickly. Concrete is an aerated solid so can't do this, and is a very poor conductor, so loses its heat a lot more slowly. The concrete bricks are also aerated, and air is an even poorer conductor than concrete.
What metals will electricity pass though?
A conductor
What do the fan relay do?
It pulls the cool air from outside of the engine compartment through the radiator to cool the hot anti freeze for circulation though the engine block. The relay turns the fan on/off with a command from the thermal switch.
