Answer:

The heat transfer model showed convection.

In the convection model, the red water on the bottom of the beaker is hot

This means that the water at the bottom of the beaker was less dense than the water near the top of the beaker.

Explanation:

Convection is the transference of heat energy by the movement (translation) of the particles of fluid (liquids or gases).

When the water on the bottom of the beaker is heated, it expands and becomes less dense.

The water near the top of the beaker is cold which makes it denser than the water at the bottom of the beaker.

Thus, the hot water from the bottom of the beaker will ascend toward the top of the beaker, while the cold water on top will descend toward the bottom. As long, as there is a difference of temperature between the water on the bottom and on top of the beaker, there will be a continuous movement of the particles: cold particles from the top replace hot particles from the bottom that ascend, and when the cold particles are heated they will ascend and will be replaced by new cold particles. This continuous translation of hot and cold particles in fluids is the model of heat transfer by convection.

An airplane flies 1000 miles in 2 hours. What is its average speed in miles per hour?

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

500km per hour

Explanation:

if in 2 hours the airplane flies 1000 km then 1000 divided by 2 is 500km per hour.

One major advantage of alternating current over direct current is that you can use alternating current with a device known as a

Oksanka [162]

transformer makes use of mutual induction for its operation in which change in magnetic field in one coil due to variation of current , induces voltage in the other coil. so changing magnetic field in the primary coil is very much needed for the transformer. Alternating current is a current which varies with time , hence it is suitable to produce changing magnetic field in the primary coil. on the other hand , the direct current remains constant all the time. hence can not produce a changing magnetic field. so DC current is not useful for transformers.

Write down one fact about each of the following crust, mantle, outer, core, & inner core

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Hope this help you!!

Explanation:

Crust : The crust is the thinnest layer of the Earth. It has an average thickness of about 18 miles below land, and around 6 miles below the oceans. The crust is the layer that makes up the Earth's surface and it lies on top of a harder layer, called the mantle.

Mantle : The mantle is the mostly-solid bulk of Earth's interior. The mantle lies between Earth's dense, super-heated core and its thin outer layer, the crust. The mantle is about 1,802 miles thick, and makes up a whopping 84% of Earth's total volume

Outer Core : The outer core is the third layer of the Earth. It is the only liquid layer, and is mainly made up of the metals iron and nickel, as well as small amounts of other substances. The outer core is responsible for Earth's magnetic field. As Earth spins on its axis, the iron inside the liquid outer core moves around.

Inner Core : It's Almost The Size of the Moon. The Earth's inner core is surprisingly large, measuring 1,516 miles across. It's Mostly Made of Iron. It Spins Faster Than the Surface of the Earth. It Creates a Magnetic Field.

In a game of egg-toss, you and a partner are throwing an egg back and forth trying not to break it. Given your knowledge of mome

F=dP/dt. So you want the momentum to change as slowly as possible in time to minimize the force. So as you catch the egg, let your hand move backward with it for awhile, slowly bringing it to a stop. If you hold your hand steady when you catch it the force due to the impact could break it.
