How does a flask reduce heat loss by conduction and radiation?
Using vacuum as an insulator avoids heat loss by conduction. Heat transfer is minimised by reflective silver surfaces that are applied to the flask. This prevents thermal radiation from entering and escaping the flask.
How does a thermos flask reduce heat loss by conduction?
Using vacuum as an insulator avoids heat loss by conduction. Heat transfer is minimised by reflective silver surfaces that are applied to the flask. This prevents thermal radiation from entering and escaping the flask.
What is one example of heat transfer through radiation?
Heat transfer through radiation is probably best illustrated by the warming of the earth by the sun. Electromagnetic energy from the sun in the form of light travels through the vacuum of space to reach the earth and warm us.
How does a thermos flask reduce heat loss by radiation?
Vaccum between thermos walls does NOT prevent radiation, however the other forms of heat transfer(convection and conduction) are more or less eliminated. Radiation effect of heat transfer may be reduced by applying a layer of reflective material inside the bootles - to reflect the emmision back inwards.
What Controls the amount of light entering the microscope adjust what part?
the diaphragm controls the amount of light entering the microscope
What blocks most ultraviolet radiation from entering earths serface?
nitrogen
What blocks most ultraviolet radiation from entering the earth's surface?
The Ozone layer.
What is the best action a first responder can take to isolate a hazard area and deny entry to unauthorized person?
Without entering the area, keep people away from the scene and outside the safety perimeter.
Is hepatitis c a latent disease?
yes,its caused by radiation waves entering the bloodstream and fizzing cells in your aorta
What effect can a very large eruption have on earths climate?
It will cool the earth's surface as radiation from the sun is blocked from entering the atmosphere
What is beneficial about a canopic jar?
canopic jars were used to hold the guts of mummies such as stomach, liver but not the heart. The Egyptians believed that the heart had to be weighed before entering the afterlife.
How does a flask reduce heat loss by conduction and radiation?
Using vacuum as an insulator avoids heat loss by conduction. Heat transfer is minimised by reflective silver surfaces that are applied to the flask. This prevents thermal radiation from entering and escaping the flask.
What is an Example of where energy transfer by radiation is occurring?
Some examples of energy transfer by radiation are: 1) standing in sunlight and feeling the heat on your face (UV radiation is entering the skin, converting to infrared radiation, and is absorbed by your tissues); 2) sitting near a fire and feeling the heat on your skin (infrared radiation transfer); 3) chemical reactions that occur due to a source of radioactivity (gamma radiation, being high-energy photons, travel from the radioactive source through the air into the target sample, and induce chemical reactions
How is progressive lighting beneficial for the environment?
Progressive Lighting, a Californian company, is beneficial for the environment because of its work in replacing CFL bulbs with even more energy - efficient methods of lighting, and other energy - saving projects. They benefit the environment by stopping CO2 and other pollutants from entering the atmosphere.
Which type of ionising radiation is stopped from entering the body by the layer of dead skin at the surface?
Alpha particles (Helium nuclei) as well as any other large radiation by products. Smaller particles go right through you-> gamma rays, x-rays, etc.
What key should I press on a keyboard if I am inputting data on my computer?
Traditionally, if you are entering data, you would press the Enter or Return key after you finish typing a line. When entering data on the Web, you usually would click Okay or Submit when you finish filling a form.
Why is radiation sickness so dangous?
We need to be prepared for anything including nuclear radiation, plutonium and other poisons entering our environment wherever we are. Radiation effects include cancer, genetic and DNA damage, reproductive damage, hormonal damage, and thyroid damange (that's why they want you to take potassium iodine, another dangerous toxin) but I wouldn't. There is a much safer substance (nascent iodine).
