Complete the following statement: the interior of a thermos bottle is silvered to minimize heat transfer due to
a. conduction and convection
b. conduction
c. conduction, convection and radiation
d. conduction and radiation
e. radiation.

E. radiation.

Explanation:

As we know that heat transfer due to conduction depends on thermal conductivity of the materials and heat transfer due to convection depends on the velocity of the fluid.But on the other hand heat transfer due to radiation depends on the surface properties like  emmisivity .So when bottle is silvered then it will leads to minimize the radiation heat transfer.

Therefore answer is --

E. radiation.

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.
