Undergrad How does heat loss through conduction occur?
Hello, There are two questions in my original e-mail: The second one - about temperature distribution as function of time and distance from heat source is more or less clear, but if someone can recommend where I can read about relevant math it would be great. The first question actually is...- burashka5719

Undergrad How does heat loss through conduction occur?
Yes, but before the system stabilised? During this period distribution of temperature as function of time and distance from 0 can be different.- burashka5719

Undergrad How does heat loss through conduction occur?
Usually it is said that loss of heat through a chunk of material because of conduction is proportional to difference in temperature and inversely proportional to thickness of material. E.g. if I got a wall to ΔQ = K*S*ΔT/D. where ΔQ - is energy flow through material. K - constant characteristic...- burashka5719

Graduate Does space contraction affect planet evolution?
Ok, that helps. I got some understanding of how planets evolve and I brought this example of planets in order to illustrate a contradiction which I was unable to explain. Of course planets are spherical not because it is a law of nature, but because under conditions you mentioned they will...- burashka5719

Graduate Does space contraction affect planet evolution?
Hello, from time to time I got question in physics for which I can't readily find answers. I hope I can get answers here. Here is my current one: Usually textbooks state that space contracts in direction parallel to direction of motion. It sounds strange, because time changes uniformly, and as I...- burashka5719
