Why are solids good at transferring heat through conduction? a. the particles are close together. b. the particles do not move. c. the particles give off electromagnetic waves. d. the particles can slide past one another.

Based on the concept of the wave-like nature of light, huygens' theory of light postulates that the more light was "bent" by a substance the slower it would move while traversing across that substance. a) deflection b) interference c) refraction d) resonance

Ms.hidalgo opens the door to her classroom. her classroom is 60 degrees and the air outside is 80. predict what will happen using your knowledge of how heat flows.

Asolid cylinder and a cylindrical shell have the same mass, same radius, and turn on frictionless, horizontal axles. the cylindrical shell has light-weight spokes connecting the shell to the axle. a rope is wrapped around each cylinder and tied to blocks of equal masses that are held the same height above the ground. both blocks are released simultaneously. the ropes do not slip. which block hits the ground first? or is it a tie?
