Answer:
False
Explanation:
Convection currents do not produce heat. In fact, convection current are a method of transfer of heat, not of production. Convection occurs when there is a fluid which is heated from bottom, from an external source of heat (such as a pot of boiling water over a flame): the bottom part of the fluid becomes warmer, and so less dense than the colder part, therefore it starts moving up, and it is replaced by the colder parts of the fluid, which go down. Later, these colder parts become warmer, so they start going up, being replaced by new colder parts, etc... in a cycle. This is known as convection current, but it requires an external source of heat, it does not produce heat by itself.
Therefore the world's record high temperature of 134.0°F (56.7°C) is held by Furnace Creek Ranch in Death Valley, California. That global high temperature was attained on July 10, 1913.
The correct graph is <u>D</u>.
The graph <em>A</em> is a straight line sloping downwards and it shows that the speed of the body is decreasing at a constant rate. Therefore, this s a graph of a body that is under a constant deceleration.
The graph B is a straight line which slopes upwards. Hence the graph shows that the speed of the body increases at a constant rate. Therefore, this is a graph of a body that is accelerating at a constant rate.
The graph C is curved line, which curves upwards. The slope of the curve increases with time. This is therefore, a graph of a body which is under increasing acceleration.
The graph D, however is a straight line parallel to the time axis. The speed of the body has the same value at all times. Therefore, Graph D is the graph which shows the motion of a body with constant speed.
Answer:
Average velocity v = 21.18 m/s
Average acceleration a = 2 m/s^2
Explanation:
Average speed equals the total distance travelled divided by the total time taken.
Average speed v = ∆x/∆t = (x2-x1)/(t2-t1)
Average acceleration equals the change in velocity divided by change in time.
Average acceleration a = ∆v/∆t = (v2-v1)/(t2-t1)
Where;
v1 and v2 are velocities at time t1 and t2 respectively.
And x1 and x2 are positions at time t1 and t2 respectively.
Given;
t1 = 3.0s
t2 = 20.0s
v1 = 11 m/s
v2 = 45 m/s
x1 = 25 m
x2 = 385 m
Substituting the values;
Average speed v = ∆x/∆t = (x2-x1)/(t2-t1)
v = (385-25)/(20-3)
v = 21.18 m/s
Average acceleration a = ∆v/∆t = (v2-v1)/(t2-t1)
a = (45-11)/(20-3)
a = 2 m/s^2
Answer:
a) F = 64.30 N, b) θ = 121.4º
Explanation:
Forces are vector quantities so one of the best methods to add them is to decompose each force and add the components
let's use trigonometry
Force F1
sin 170 = F_{1y} / F₁
cos 170 = F₁ₓ / F₁
F_{1y} = F₁ sin 170
F₁ₓ = F₁ cos 170
F_{1y} = 100 sin 170 = 17.36 N
F₁ₓ = 100 cos 170 = -98.48 N
Force F2
sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂
cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂
F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30
F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30
F_{2y} = 75 sin 30 = 37.5 N
F₂ₓ = 75 cos 30 = 64.95 N
the resultant force is
X axis
Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ
Fₓ = -98.48 +64.95
Fₓ = -33.53 N
Y axis
F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y}
F_y = 17.36 + 37.5
F_y = 54.86 N
a) the magnitude of the resultant vector
let's use Pythagoras' theorem
F = Ra Fx ^ 2 + Fy²
F = Ra 33.53² + 54.86²
F = 64.30 N
b) the direction of the resultant
let's use trigonometry
tan θ’= F_y / Fₓ
θ'= 
θ'= tan⁻¹ (54.86 / (33.53)
θ’= 58.6º
this angle is in the second quadrant
The angle measured from the positive side of the x-axis is
θ = 180 -θ'
θ = 180- 58.6
θ = 121.4º
