A liquid thermometer can be used to test for fevers. When body temperature increases,
the liquid inside the thermometer expands and rises to show a higher temperature reading. Which of the following explanations below best describes the
changes in thermal energy of the particles during this specific example of heat transfer?
A. The thermometer tip is heated by radiation from the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat by convection through the
liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to slow down, expand, and rise.
OB. The thermometer tip is heated by conduction from the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat by convection through the
liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to slow down, expand, and rise.
OC. The thermometer tip is heated by convection with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat by conduction with the
liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then conduct heat causing the warmer particles to speed up, expand, and rise.
O D. The thermometer tip is heated by conduction with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat by conduction with the liquid
inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to speed up, expand, and rise.

Asatellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours iscalled a geosynchronous satellite. if a geosynchronoussatellite is in an equatorial orbit, its position appearsstationary with respect to a ground station, and it is known as ageostationary satellite find the radius rof the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth.(note that ris measured from the center of the earth, not the surface.) you mayuse the following constants: the universal gravitational constant g is 6.67 \times 10^{-11}\; {\rm n \; m^2 / kg^2}. the mass of the earth is 5.98 \times 10^{24}\; {\rm kg}. the radius of the earth is 6.38 \times 10^{6}\; {\rm m}.
