A thermometer is removed from a beaker of boiling water and placed in a beaker of room temperature water. The thermometer

takes 15 seconds to reach a reading of 25°C. The same thermometer is returned to the boiling water for several minutes. It is

then placed under a tap of running water at room temperature. The thermometer takes only 10 seconds to reach a reading of

25°C

What conclusion could you make about conduction and convection based on these observations?

Conduction is a more efficient method of heat transfer

Convection is a more efficient method of heat transfer

No valid conclusion is suggested by these observations:

Conduction and convection are equally efficient methods of heat transfer

When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity i decreases is proportional to i(t), where t represents the thickness of the medium (in feet). in clear seawater, the intensity 3 feet below the surface is 25% of the initial intensity i0 of the incident beam. what is the intensity of the beam "10" feet below the surface? (give your answer in terms of i0. round any constants or coefficients to five decimal places.)
