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

Physics

Aleks [24]3 years ago

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.

A dog has a mass of 20 kg. If the dog is pushed across the ice with a force of 40 N, what is its acceleration?
olasank [31]

Answer:

The acceleration is 2 m/s2.

Explanation:

We calculate the acceleration (a), with the data of mass (m) and force (F), through the formula:

F = m x a  ---> a= F/m

a = 40 N/20 kg                   <em>  1N= 1 kg x m/s2</em>

a= 40 kgx m/s2/ 20 kg

<em>a= 2 m/s2</em>

The rectangular plates in a parallel-plate capacitor are 0.063 m x 5.4 m. A distance of 3.5 x 10^-5m separate the plates. The pl
Aleks04 [339]

The capacitance of the capacitor is 1.8\cdot 10^{-9}F

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by the equation

C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

k is the dielectric constant of the medium

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

For the capacitor in this problem, we have:

k = 2.1 is the dielectric constant

d=3.5\cdot 10^{-5}m is the separation between the plates

A=0.063m \cdot 0.054m = 0.0034 m^2 (I assumed that 5.4 m is a typo, since it is not a realistic size for the side of the plate)

Therefore, the capacitance of the  capacitor is

C=\frac{(2.1)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.0034)}{3.5\cdot 10^{-5}}=1.8\cdot 10^{-9}F
