Heat is measured in British Thermal Units (Btu). A Btu is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit. True False

59. Conduction is A) the direct transmission iof energy without the need for a medium of transfer. B) the transfer of heat via bulk motion of the medium. C) the transfer of heat by electron and atomic collisions. D) the only way to transfer heat from a colder object to a warmer ones. 60. Convection is A) the direct transmission of energy without the need for a medium of transfer. B) the transfer of heat via bulk motion of the medium. C) the transfer of heat by electron and atomic collisions. D) the only way to transfer heat from a colder object to a warmer ones. 58. When you touch the metal handle of the room -temperature stainless-steel frying pan, it feels cool to your touch. When you grab a room-temperature sauce pan by its plastic handle, A) it feels cooler than the metal handle because plastic conducts heat better than the metallic steel. B) it feels warmer than the metal handle because the steel handle conducts heat better than the plastic. C) it doesn't feel cooler or warmer than the steel. Why would it? Both handles are at room temperature! 2 points 2 points 2 points

Concavity can be discerned from a table of values but not from a graph. A True B False

A metal rod of mass m carrying a current I glides on two horizontal 'rails a distance d apart. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the rod and rails is $\mu _{k'}$ what vertical magnetic field is required to keep the rod moving at a constant speed? (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: g.) $B=\frac {\mu _{k}mg}{Id}$
