You want to design a double-paned window. To reduce the amount of heat transfer by conduction through the window, you need to (more than one could be correct): You want to design a double-paned window. To reduce the amount of heat transfer by conduction through the window, you need to (more than one could be correct): Decrease the area of the window. Decrease the thickness of the window. Increase the thickness of the window. Increase the area of the window.

the correct answer to increase the thickness of the windows

Explanation:

Thermal transfer by conduction is

P = k A $( \frac{ T_h - T_c}{L} )$

where P is the heat transfer rate, A is the area and L is the thickness

In the given case we have that the window is made up of two materials, two layers of transparent glass and a layer of air between them, let us use the index 1 for the glass and the index 2 for the air, the equation remains

P = $k_1 A_1 \frac{ \Delta T }{2 \ e_1} + k_2 A_2 \frac{ \Delta T}{e_2}$

where the number two (2) is due to the two layers of glass

the thermal conductivity of the glass is k₁ = 0.75 W/m K for a glass of

e₁ = 4 mm, this is more used for windows

the thermal conductivity of the air is k₂ = 0.024 W / m K for a temperature of T = 0ºC

In a window the area and the temperature difference are constant for each part for a given configuration

P = $( \frac{k_1}{2 \ e_1} + \frac{k_2 }{ e_2} )$ A ΔT

To decrease the speed of thermal transfer we can decrease the area, but this also reduces the lighting in the room, which brings other costs.

We can also increase the thickness of the materials, as we see the thermal conductivity of the air is very less than that of glass

k₂ « k₁

increasing the thickness of the air layer would have the greatest effect is the decrease in heat transfer in window light

consequently the correct answer to increase the thickness of the windows

the box does not move because you need to use a force greater than 300 n. you are only using 50 n. it needs to at least be 301 n for the box to move because then it is an unbalanced force and it will move the way that the greater force is pushing it. if you use only 300 n it will be a balanced force and will not move because the force you are exerting on the box is the same as its force.

hope this !

im sorry if i went too in depth, i am going to include a link to a video on khan academy that will explain this. hope that you like the video and that it explains more in detail to you.

that is the link.

Follow these directions and answer the questions. 1. shine a pencil-thin beam of light on a mirror perpendicular to its surface. (if you don't have a laser light as suggested in the video, you can make a narrow beam from a flashlight by making a cone from black construction paper and taping it over the face of the flashlight.) how does the light reflect? how does the relationship of incident to reflected ray relate to the reflection of water waves moving perpendicular to a barrier? 2. shine a pencil-thin beam of light on a mirror standing on a sheet of paper on the table (or floor) so that you can mark the incident ray and reflected ray. (you can support the mirror from the back by taping it to a wooden block.) 3. mark a line on the paper representing the reflective surface. (the reflective surface of a mirror is usually the back edge.) 4. draw a dashed line perpendicular to the mirror surface at a point where the incident and reflected ray meet. this perpendicular is called a normal to the surface. 5. measure the angles between the rays and the normal. the angle of incidence is the angle formed by the incident ray and the normal to the surface. the angle formed by the reflected ray and normal is called the angle of reflection (r). what is the angle of incidence? what is the angle of reflection? 6. repeat for several different angles. (see report sheet for details.) what appears to be the relationship between the angle of incidence and angle of reflection? in science 1204, what was the relationship for these two angles made by the reflection of waves in a ripple tank? 7. roll a ball bearing so that it hits a fixed, hard surface (a metal plate) at several angles (including head-on). observe the way in which the ball bearing reflects. what generalization can you make about how a ball bearing reflects from a wall? have you proved that light can only behave like a wave?
