Your bedroom gets direct sunlight through a window during the hottest part of the day. You ask your mom to turn down the thermomstat in the house so your room can cool down. Instead, your mom suggests that you put aluminum foil over the windows. What will the results be if you take your mom's advice?
A. A room cooled by minimizing heat transfer by reflection.
B. A room cooled by minimizing heat transfer by radiation.
C. A room cooled by minimizing heat transfer by convection.
D. A room cooled by minimizing heat transfer by conduction.
Please help me! It would be greatly appreciated!!
Thank you so much!!

Respuesta :

I want to say its cooled by reflection because of the foil, sun reflects off of the foil back into the atmosphere. I don't think it's conduction because I have the foil on my windows and it's never warm to the touch. it's not a liquid so I don't believe it's convection. The foil reflects the radiation so I don't think it's b, c or d. so I wanna say A but I'm not 100% sure
