It is less dense than the water above it and so it the heated less dense water rises upwards to replace the denser water and the denser water falls below to the heating element below, and this also becomes less dense and the circle continues, thus setting up the convection current.

Similar principle is applied in convection current for land and sea breezes.

Bob and Lily are riding on a typical carousel. Bob rides on a horse near the outer edge of the circular platform, and Lily rides
jekas [21]

Answer:

B.the same as Lily's.

Explanation:

When a disc is rotating on its axis uniformly with some angular velocity , every particle on it rotates with the same angular velocity , because every particle on it completes a rotation simultaneously . So in one rotation they take same time . Hence   particles whether on the outer edge or near the axis , all have same angular velocity .

They but differ due to their different linear velocity . Linear velocity of particle near outer edge have greater magnitude.  .
