What produces the wavy effect in air over a hot stove

Physics
1 answer:
AysviL [449]3 years ago
8 0
<span>The reason that things look wavy in the heat over a hot grill or stove is that the air temperature is not stable. Hot air naturally rises, so as air comes off the hot surface, it rises for a bit before rapidly cooling and sinking to be heated again. This constant mixing of hot and cool air produces vibration. This vibration affects how we see the light moving through the air, making it look wavy.</span>

What is table salt (NaCl) formed by?
Rzqust [24]
NaCl is a compound formed by a chemical reaction between Na (Sodium) and Cl (Chlorine). Sodium is an alkai metal in Group One of the Periodic Table, and it is very reactive. All alkai metals react violently with water and they are often found combined in nature because they are that reactive. Chlorine is a halogen in Group 17 of the Periodic Table and they are very reactive.

QUESTION: A pure jet engine propels and aircraft at 340 m/s through air at 45 kPa and -13C. The inlet diameter of this engine is 1.6 m, the compressor pressure ratio is 13, and the temperature at the turbine inlet is 557C. Determine the velocity at the exit of this engines nozzle and the thrust produced.

ANSWER: Due to the propulsion from the inlet diameter of this engine bring 1.6 m allows the compressor rations to radiate allowing thrust propultion above all velocitic rebisomes.

Can a particle with constant speed be accelarating?<br>what if it has constant velocity?​
Olin [163]

Explanation:

it can be safely concluded that an object moving in a circle at constant speed is indeed accelerating. It is accelerating because the direction of the velocity vector is changing.

When an object is moving with constant velocity, it does not change direction nor speed and therefore is represented as a straight line when graphed as distance over time.

Technician A says a short to voltage may or may not blow a fuse and may or may not affect more than one circuit. Technician B sa
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

C. Both A and B

Explanation:

Fuses are rated by the amperage they can carry before heat melts the element. The fuse is ideal for protection against short circuits. Short circuits produce enough amperage to vaporize a fuse element and break connection in one cycle of a 60-cycle system.

Specifically, the voltage rating determines the ability of the fuse to suppress the internal arcing that occurs after a fuse link melts and an arc is produced.
