How do the positions of the hot and cold water affect the speed of convection

2 answers:

5 0

Convection is the process in which heat is transferred by movement of a heated fluid such as air or water. Natural convection results from the tendency of most fluids to expand when heated so it becomes less dense and rise above.

For example- In a pot of water on a stove the liquid t bottom is heated by conduction. The hot water has lower density and it rises above pushing the cold water downwards so it gets heated.

Explanation:

Convection is defined as a process in which a fluid (liquid or gas) when heated then cooler substance (more dense) will sink to the bottom whereas hotter substance (less dense) will rise to the top.

This means that if warmer substance is placed below colder substance then speed of molecules of warmer substance will be in the upward direction and molecules of colder substance will move in the downward direction.

ad-work [718]

Answer:

60 m/s

Explanation:

$a = \frac{vf - vi}{t}$

$5.0 = \frac{vf - 0}{12}$

$5.0 \times 12 = vf$

$60 = vf$

In the simplified version of Kepler's third law, P 2 = a3, the units of the orbital period P and the semimajor axis a of the ell

Orlov [11]

Answer:

The units of the orbital period P is years and the units of the semimajor axis a is astronomical units.

Explanation:

P² = a³ is the simplified version of Kepler's third law which governs the orbital motion of large bodies that orbit around a star. The orbit of each planet is an ellipse with the star at the focal point.

Therefore, if you square the year of each planet and divide it by the distance that it is from the star, you will get the same number for all the other planets.

Thus, the units of the orbital period P is years and the units of the semimajor axis a is astronomical units.

What if The rotational speed of Earth increased ?

dsp73

Answer:

This would happen.

Explanation:

If the earth’s rotation speed increases then the weight of the body decreases. This is because you see a moving body on the rotating earth’s surface itself is in the reference frame. So when the earth rotates, the centripetal force acts towards the centre of rotation.

Relativistic velocity is of the order of _____ of velocity of light A- 1/15th of the velocity of light B-1/20th of the velocity

ratelena [41]

Answer:

Relativistic velocity is of the order of 1/10th of the velocity of light

Explanation:

We define relativistic speed (or velocity) as a speed that is a significant fraction of the speed of light: c = 3*10^8 m/s

Such that for these speeds, the special relativity theory starts to apply (the relativity effects starts to apply).

Usually, we define relativistic speeds as those that are of the order (or larger) of c/10, which is one-tenth of the speed of light.

Then the correct option is C:

Relativistic velocity is of the order of 1/10th of the velocity of light
