In nature, hot air tends to rise and cool air tends to sink. This is behind the concept of convection heating that is used in ov

ens. Convection currents occur only in fluids such as liquids and gases but not in solids.

Answer:

<h2>B</h2>

Explanation:

MODES OF HEAT TRANSFER

1) Conduction: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct contact between the two object.

2) Convection: This type of heat transfer happens when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas).

3) Radiation: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct transfer of energy through space.

A. Rubbing your hands together, is a type of energy transformation in which mechanical energy transforms to heat energy.

<h3>B. Heating a fish tank: Hot liquid tends to rise and cool liquid tends to sink and thus the fish tank heats.</h3>

C. Basking in the sun: is a type of radiation as the sun energy is transferred through space.

D. Striking a match: is a energy transformation in which mechanical energy transforms to heat and light energy.

A stone is dropped from the top of a tower. What is its velocity after 3.0 seconds?
kap26 [50]

For purposes of completing our calculations, we're going to assume that
the experiment takes place on or near the surface of the Earth. 

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is about 9.8 m/s², directed toward the
center of the planet.  That means that the downward speed of a falling object
increases by 9.8 m/s for every second that it falls.

3 seconds after being dropped, a stone is falling at (3 x 9.8) = 29.4 m/s. 

That's the vertical component of its velocity.  The horizontal component is
the same as it was at the instant of the drop, provided there is no horizontal
force on the stone during its fall.
