"Boiling water" means pumping enough heat into it to raise its temperature to the boiling point.

"Type of heat transfer" means how do you do that ... pump the heat into the water ?

Well, there are exactly three ways to transfer heat from one place to another: Conduction, convection, and radiation. There aren't any other ways. You can use ANY of these types of heat transfer IF you can construct a way to use it to heat water.

Conduction: Maybe you could heat a steel ball until it's glowing red-hot, then drop it into the water.

Convection: Maybe you could heat the bottom of the bottle or kettle the water is in, and let convection circulate all the water up and down until the whole thing starts boiling.

Radiation: Maybe you could shine a heat lamp or sunshine onto the water, and wait until the water absorbs enough of the radiated heat to start boiling.

The way it's MOST OFTEN done is to light a fire under the water container. When you do that, here are the types of heat transfer involved:

-- Heat transfers from the fire to the bottom of the container by CONDUCTION.

-- The heat passes through from the outside of the bottom of the container to the inside by CONDUCTION.

-- When the heat gets inside, it heats up the bottom of the water by CONDUCTION.

-- The water circulates up and down in the container. Hot water rises from the bottom to the top, and cold water sinks from the top to the bottom. That's CONVECTION. Eventually, ALL of the water in the container is hot enough to boil.

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

$p(t)=0.3t^2+6t+80$

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

$p(0)=0+0+80=80$

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

$p(t)=2\times 80=160$

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

$160=0.3t^2+6t+80\\\\160-80=0.3t^2+6t\\\\80=0.3t^2+6t\\\\0.3t^2+6t-80=0\\\\\text{using quadratic formula ,we get }\\\\t_{1,\: 2}=\frac{-60\pm \sqrt{60^2-4\cdot \: 3\cdot \: 800}}{2\cdot \: 3}\\\\t=-29.14\ and\ t=9.149$

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

The base of a 50-meter tower is at the origin; the base of a 50-meter tree is at (0, 50, 0). the ground is flat and the z-axis points upward. the following parametric equations describe the motion of six projectiles each launched at time t = 0 in seconds. (i) r (t) = (50 + t2)k (ii) r (t) = 2t2 j + 2t2k (iii) r (t) = 50 i + 50 j + (50 − t2)k (iv) r (t) = 2t j + (50 − t2)k (v) r (t) = (50 − 2t) i + 2t j + (50 − t)k (vi) r (t) = t i + t j + tk (a) which projectile is launched from the top of the tower and goes downward? at time t = , the projectile hits the ground at point (x, y, z) = . (b) which projectile hits the top of the tree?

Isobars are lines of constant or equal pressure on a weather map. they can be used to find areas of low or high pressure over a broad area, and they can tell us how intense the system may be. on weather maps, you may have noticed areas that have a large l or h over a region with lines circling around them. the l stands for low pressure and h stands for high pressure. the lines circling them are isobars. check out the pressure system and isobars over georgia and florida. what is the present weather in this area ? a) clear and sunny b) cold and cloudy c) changing weather d) lots of precipitation
