Suppose we choose to use a cable as described in the example to meet the minimal diameter requirement (to cut cost). We are told that such cable will break when extended by more than 0.64 cm, what is the maximum tension (in N) the cable can tolerate without breaking?

Holes drilled several kilometers into earth’s crust provide direct evidence about earth’s interior in the form of

The total amount of energy contained in an object

Beryl states that insulation with the smallest possible thermal conductivity is best to keep a house warm in winter, but worst for keeping a house cool in summer. sapphire insists the reverse is true: low thermal conductivity is good in the summer, but bad in the winter. which one, if either is correct? a. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in low heat transfer. b. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. d. sapphire, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. e. neither, because low heat transfer is desirable both in summer and in winter.
