Physics True and False quiz?

Saucepan have plastic handles because plastics are good conductors of heat. True or False?

Houses are painted in hot countries, white so it can reflect radiation and stay cool. True or False?

When you have double glazing heat can still escape through a window by radiation. Is that true or not?

Heat energy travels to the earth from the Sun by conduction. Once again true or false?

The particles at the hot end of a metal rod vibrate vigorously. True or not to be true?

A thick piece of glass is a better insulator than two thin ones with a layer of air between them. False? True?

When fluids are heated they become less dense and fall. Do they or not?

A black car will absorb more radiation than a white car and will therefore remain cooler. True or false?

    Saucepan have plastic handles because plastics are good conductors of heat.

    False : They have plastic handles becuase plastic is a POOR conductor of heat

    Houses are painted in hot countries, white so it can reflect radiation and stay cool.

    True

    When you have double glazing heat can still escape through a window by radiation.

    True : Double glazing reduces heat lost by conduction

    Heat energy travels to the earth from the Sun by conduction. Once again

    False : It gets here by radiation

    The particles at the hot end of a metal rod vibrate vigorously.

    True

    A thick piece of glass is a better insulator than two thin ones with a layer of air between them.

    False : Its the air gap that increases the insulation value

    When fluids are heated they become less dense and fall.

    False : Heated fluids become less dense and RISE

    A black car will absorb more radiation than a white car and will therefore remain cooler.

    False : It absorbs more radioation (In the sun) and gets HOTTER

    i think of A.D.D. had the splendid theory. even nevertheless, a number of those are exciting. (greater are in basic terms quickly purposes of the definitions.) #9: An merchandise moving to the splendid with a persevering with acceleration to the left will, at last, initiate moving to the left. #8: i think of no longer. think of of action following a discern-8 course. for each action on the course there is its top opposite. The velocities will cancel out, V = 0, even nevertheless the value could be consistent. #6: Like #8 in that the common speed relies upon upon the course. #4: around action at a persevering with speed has acceleration in direction of the middle...
