Answer to Question 1

Dark, non-stick pans transmit the most energy since they absorb the most heat. Next, air bake pans conduct heat but transfer it evenly. Aluminum pans are good conductors of heat energy and decrease the incidence of over baking. Glass is a poor heat energy transmitter.

Answer to Question 2

If the aluminum pans had been covered, the water would have heated faster because less heat would have escaped from the top.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
