Why are space suits shiny for?
1. space suits are shiny because radiation (method of heat loss) bounces off shiny surfaces, so this means the astonaught will keep warm becasue the heat will bounce back to his body and keep him warm.2. shiny materials do not absorb sweat or liquids
How does a cloudy night and a clear night relate to the greenhouse effect?
Both water vapor and clouds are great greenhouse gasses, they block the loss of heat into outer space (at night).
What is the transfer of heat through space by heat?
The sun gives off radiation, which can travel through space, and is later converted into heat when it contacts matter (Earth, space crafts, astronauts, asteroids, ect.).
Earth loses heat energy to outer space mainly by?
Earth loses heat energy to outer space mainly by radiation.
What are the dangers that could happen in space?
loss of oxygen
How the surface area affects heat loss?
Heat loss of water: The surface area effects the the rate of heat loss because the rate of heat loss increases if the surface are is higher. How: The water is spread out into a bigger space meaning the
Does loft insulation reduce heat loss by conduction convection or radiation?
Insulation reduces heat loss by replacing air space with a less conductive material (insulation). Therefore the answer is conduction.
The process by which the atmosphere slows earth's loss of heat to space is called the?
It is called the greenhouse effect
How space rocket in space can be slowed down?
a rocket can be slowed down by firing trusters in the opposite direction however the slower the rocket moves forward the faster it will fall
Is precipitation heat loss or heat gain?
heat loss
What is the use of double glass in thermos flask?
The vacuum space between the two silvered surfaces make efficient heat insulation against heat loss.
When a cold can of soda is insulated the heat flow into the can on a hot day .?

How does cavity wall insulation reduce heat loss?
Most outside walls have an empty space between the 2 layers of bricks called a cavity . This reduces heat loss by conduction through the bricks. Heat energy reaches the interior wall The heat energy is conducted through the wall The air cavity between the two walls in a cavity wall acts as an insulator and reduces heat loss by conduction
