Answer:

density

Explanation:

Convection currents are the result of differential heating. Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth.

What is the Scientific definition of friction?
seropon [69]
Friction<span> is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. It is not a fundamental force, like gravity or electromagnetism. Instead, scientists believe it is the result of the electromagnetic attraction between charged particles in two touching surfaces.
Hope this is of great help to you, and happy studying~!

A battery charger is connected to a dead battery and delivers a current of 8.9 A for 4.7 hours, keeping the voltage across the b
adell [148]

Answer:

1807.56 kJ

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Current, I = 8.9A

Time, t = 4.7hrs = 4.7 * 3600 = 16920 secs

Voltage, V = 12V

Electrical energy is given as:

E = I*V*t

Where I = Current

V = Voltage/Potential differenxe

t = time in seconds.

E = 8.9 * 12 * 16920

E = 1807056 J = 1807.056 kJ

Softa [21]

 Change minutes to hrs, divide by 60:
30 min = .50 hrs
45 min = .75 hrs
12 min = .20 hrs
----------------
total + 1.45 hrs, total travel time
:

let a = average speed for the trip
:
Write a dist equation, dist = speed * time
:
80(.5) + 100(.20) + 40(.75) = 1.45a
40 + 20 + 30 = 1.45a
90 = 1.45a
a =
a = 62.069 km/h, for the entire trip
and
90 km is the total distance
