At what speed do gamma rays travel?

Which process does not require the presence of a physical substance in order to transfer heat? air in the atmosphere is heated by the ground. this warm air then rises, and cooler air falls. this is an example of what type of process? how is conduction different from radiation?

The zinc within a copper-plated penny dissolves in hydrochloric acid if the copper coating is filed down in several spots (so that the hydrochloric acid can reach the zinc). the reaction between the acid and the zinc 2h+(aq)+zn(s)→h2(g)+zn2+(aq) . when the zinc in a certain penny dissolves, the total volume of gas collected over water at 25 °c is 0.947 l at a total pressure of 743 mmhg . (vapor pressure of water is 23.78 mmhg at 25 °c .) what mass of hydrogen gas is collected? answer in appropriate significant figures

If 950 joules of heat are needed to increase the temperature of 45.6 grams of an unknown metal from 25.0 celsius to 90.0 celsius, what is the specific heat capacity of the metal in j/g celsius
