Question

How does the irrigation tubing help to solve the problem? 

A. 

The irrigation tubing absorbs the radiant energy from the Sun and transfers it to the water by conduction.

B. 

The irrigation tubing circulates the water, which heats the water through the friction created by the movement.

C. 

The irrigation tubing absorbs the heat from the Sun through conduction and transfers it to the water by convection.

D. 

The irrigation tubing spreads the water out, allowing the water to be heated directly by the Sun through convection.

The best answer to how irrigation tubing helps solve the problem of heating water through solar energy would be:

**C. The irrigation tubing absorbs the heat from the Sun through conduction and transfers it to the water by convection.**

This option describes how the tubing can absorb heat from sunlight (through conduction) and then transfer that heat to the water circulating within or around it (by convection), which is a mechanism commonly utilized in solar water heating systems.
