What else can I help you with?
If you have a critical mass of a radioactive material what can occur?
In a critical mass, the material involved starts to undergo fission because of the presence of a dense neutron flux. The fission produces neutrons, which add to the neutron flux. This causes a great release of heat. Reaching critical mass does not imply a powerful nuclear explosion. A powerful nuclear explosion develops when critical mass is attained for a long enough time for the majority of the nuclear material to get involved. This is a very tricky thing to do and does not happen accidentally. What can happen accidentally is a nuclear "pop," a sort of small explosion which throws the material apart, destroying the critical mass, and possibly producing a lot of pollution. (This was not what happened at Chernobyl, which was steam and chemical.)
The exchange of heat or moisture between an air mass and the underlying surface is called?
The exchange of heat or moisture between an air mass and the underlying surface is called surface flux. This transfer can impact temperature and humidity profiles, leading to changes in weather patterns and conditions.
Is ability to conduct heat a chemical or physical?
as far as i know its a physical property
Is heat of fusion physical or chemical property?
Heat of fusion is a physical property. It describes the amount of heat energy required to change a substance from a solid to a liquid phase at its melting point, without altering its chemical composition.
Is the ability to conduct heat a physical property?
The ability to conduct heat does not involve a chemical reaction, so it can't be a chemical property. Therefore, it is a physical property.
What is physical significance of joule's constant?
It is the mechanical equivalent of heat.

How heat flux affects performance of the boiler?
Heat flux is the primary performance paramater in boiler performance. Heat flux can be affected by many factors espacially by boiler tube fouling ( or exchange surfaces) that will considerably reduce heat exchange.
What is the direction of heat flux on isothermal surface?
Direction of heat flux on an isothermal surface is always normal to the surface.

What is the heat flux?
The term flux, is used to indicate the amount of something crossing a unit area per second. In the case of heat flux, it would be the number of calories or BTU crossing a square meter or foot per second.

What are the two principal sources of heat in the Earth Which has a greater contribution tosurface heat flux?
The two principal sources of heat are the Sun and the Earth itself via geothermal heat. The sun's heat will vary more than geothermal, and therefore contribute more to flux.
What is the strongest flux in Galactik football?
It is the Heat of Xenon, but it is not unbeatable.
