<span>No. Solids can't undergo convection, the reason is that convection works because moving molecules which are hotter and faster have a lower density and therefore rise to the surface. With a solid now, the molecules don't move they can only vibrate.
Therefore solids conduct.</span>
Answer:
0.0195 m
Explanation:
= density of hockey puck = 9.45 gcm⁻³ = 9450 kgm³
= diameter of hockey puck = 13 cm = 0.13 m
= height of hockey puck = 2.8 cm = 0.028 m
= density of mercury = 13.6 gcm⁻³ = 13600 kgm³
= depth of puck below surface of mercury
According to Archimedes principle, the weight of puck is balanced by the weight of mercury displaced by puck
Weight of mercury displaced = Weight of puck
Answer:
the dish's acceleration is 0.375 m/s^2.
Explanation:
Recall the formula from Newton's 2nd Law:
Force = mass x acceleration.
Since we know the force in the direction of the movement (0.15 N), and we know the mass of the object (0.4 kg) , its acceleration is given by:
acceleration = force / mass = 0.15 N / 0.4 kg = 0.375 m/s^2
