What is the difference between a good radiator of heat and a good reflector of heat?
heat absober absorbs heat & refelector reflect it
How does the mirror coating prent thermos flask lose heat?
It shiny mirrored surface reflect heat which means the heat will be reduced
Why ia a silver surface used at the back of the solar panel?
The silver surface is there to reflect the heat back on to the solar panel. thats if any heat has gone through the solar panel
Why dull black surface heats up more quickly than bright shiny surfaces?
The shinier the object, the more heat will reflect off of it. For example, a black carwill heat up much faster as the dull black will absorb the heat, while a shiny coloured car will reflect the heat molocules off.
What type of surface on earth would transfer the most thermal energy to the air above it?
A highly reflective and/or conductive surface. Asphalt and sand both reflect, and thereby transfer more heat to the air above it (this is why they tend to produce mirages)
Why is there a shiny surface at the back of the radiator?
The shiny surface is a reflector, to reflect the heat outwards towards you.

Do dark or light surfaces attarct and absorb heat easier?
A dark surface will absorb the heat from sunlight. While a white surface will reflect a lot of the sunlight and remain cooler.

Clear nights are colder than cloudy nights because?
There is no cloud cover to reflect heat back to the surface. Heat escapes into space.

A highly reflective and/or conductive surface. Asphalt and sand both reflect, and thereby transfer more heat to the air above it (this is why they tend to produce mirages)
Why is it the darker the surface will have the higher temperature?
A dark surface will absorb the heat and reach a higher temperature. A light surface will reflect most of the heat and become cooler.
Is reflect a verb?
Reflect is a verb, it means to cast back light, heat, sight Etc. from a surface or to give back or show an image of. :) Hope this was some use.
Do clear liquids absorb heat or reflect heat?
Reflect
What material best reflect heat?
Mirrors reflect heat
