Jackson is designing a new heater, and he wants to experiment with different thermally conductive materials. which of these materials would be useful in conducting heat?

Jaylen is a championship runner of the school's track team. during one of his trials, his speed was measured at 15.1 m/s. find jaylen's kinetic energy during that trial if his mass is 54.6 kg.

Conventional hot-water heaters consist of a tank of water maintained at a fixed temperature. the hot water is to be used when needed. the drawback is that energy is wasted because the tank loses heat when it is not in use, and you can run out of hot water if you use too much. some utility companies are encouraging the use of on-demand water heaters (also known as flash heaters), which consist of heating units to heat the water as you use it. no water tank is involved, so no heat is wasted. a typical household shower flow rate is 2.50 gal/min (9.46 l/min ) with the tap water being heated from 51.0 ˚f (10.6 ˚c) to 120 ˚f (48.9 ˚c) by the on-demand heater. what rate of heat input (either electrical of from gas) is required to operate such a unit, assuming that all the heat goes into the water?
