Explain the mechanism of heat transfer.

Abeam has a square cross-section, a x a, where a is the linear dimension, and is subject to a pure bending moment, m. m is known with an uncertainty of 10% and a is known with an uncertainty of 5%. the strength of the material is known to an uncertainty of 12%. find the minimum design factor such that the beam is guaranteed not to fail.

The place you get your hair cut has two nearly parallel mirrors 6.00 m apart. as you sit in the chair, your head is 2.00 m from the nearer mirror. looking toward this mirror, you first see your face and then, farther away, the back of your head. (the mirrors need to be slightly nonparallel for you to be able to see the back of your head, but you can treat them as parallel in this problem.) how far away does the back of your head appear to be?

If an atom contains 11 protons in its nucleus, predict the element with the atomic number and electronic configuration. will the number of electrons remain the same during the chemical reaction in such an atom? explain.
