which of the following is an example of thermal energy being transferred directly from one substance to another via conduction?

I think it’s D

Explanation:

Conduction needs direct touch to transfer

- measure reactants precisely. ( first choice)

- stir to the reaction take place. ( second choice)

- wait patiently until the reaction completes. ( fourth choice)

- make sure to recover as much copper as possible. ( last choice)

see the picture for the vector

the magnitude of the vector by pythagorean theorem

r = √( (-10)^2 + (3)^2 ) = √109

magnitude = √109 units

the direction angle between vector and x-axis is

tan^(-1)(3/10) = 16.699

so the direction is approximately 16.7 degrees north of west
