Convention is known as one of the driving forces of atmospheric circulation. Convection is defined as the heat transfer due to bulk movement of the molecules within fluids like liquids and gases, uncluding th molten rock. Convention takes place through diffusion, advection or can be both and it is usually a domination form of heat that transfer into liquids and gases.

A hockey player hits a rubber puck from one side of the rink to the other. It has a mass of .170 kg, and is hit at an initial sp
Dimas [21]

By using third law of equation of motion, the final velocity V of the rubber puck is 8.5 m/s

Given that a hockey player hits a rubber puck from one side of the rink to the other. The parameters given are:

mass m =  0.170 kg

initial speed u = 6 m/s.

Distance covered s = 61 m

To calculate how fast the puck is moving when it hits the far wall means we are to calculate final speed V

To do this, let us first calculate the kinetic energy at which the ball move.

K.E = 1/2mU^{2}

K.E = 1/2 x 0.17 x 6^{2}

K.E = 3.06 J

The work done on the ball is equal to the kinetic energy. That is,

W = K.E

But work done = Force x distance

F x S = K.E

F x 61 = 3.06

F = 3.06/61

F = 0.05 N

From here, we can calculate the acceleration of the ball from Newton second law

F = ma

0.05 = 0.17a

a = 0.05/0.17

a = 0.3 m/s^{2}

To calculate the final velocity, let us use third equation of motion.

V^{2} = U^{2} + 2as

V^{2}  = 6^{2} + 2 x 0.3 x 61

V^{2} = 36 + 36

V^{2} = 72

V = \sqrt{72}

V = 8.485 m/s

Therefore, the puck is moving at the rate of 8.5 m/s (approximately) when it hits the far wall.

In 1976, the SR-71A, flying at 20 km altitude (T = –56 0C), set the official jet-powered aircraft speed record of 3530 km/hr (21
Lapatulllka [165]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the calculation of the speed of sound, the calculation of the Mach number and finally the calculation of the temperature at the front stagnation point. We will calculate the speed in international units as well as the temperature. With these values we will calculate the speed of the sound and the number of Mach. Finally we will calculate the temperature at the front stagnation point.

The altitude is,

z = 20km

And the velocity can be written as,

V = 3530km/h (\frac{1000m}{1km})(\frac{1h}{3600s})

V = 980.55m/s

From the properties of standard atmosphere at altitude z = 20km temperature is

T = 216.66K

k = 1.4

R = 287 J/kg

Velocity of sound at this altitude is

a = \sqrt{kRT}

a = \sqrt{(1.4)(287)(216.66)}

a = 295.049m/s

Then the Mach number

Ma = \frac{V}{a}

Ma = \frac{980.55}{296.049}

Ma = 3.312

So front stagnation temperature

T_0 = T(1+\frac{k-1}{2}Ma^2)

T_0 = (216.66)(1+\frac{1.4-1}{2}*3.312^2)

T_0 = 689.87K

Therefore the temperature at its front stagnation point is 689.87K
