What is the main cause of convection: a.pressure b. density c. weight d. altitude

Physics

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.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

E =230.4 MJ

Explanation:

As 1 mole of electron =  6X 10^23 particles.

charge of an electron is 1.6 X 10 ^-19 C

Finding Charge:

(6X10^23 ) (2.7)(1.6X10^-19 C)

i.e. 192 K C

now  to find the energy released from electrons

V=E/q

E=V X q

i.e E = 120 V X 192 K C

E =230.4 MJ

Is smoke diffusion??
Ivanshal [37]
Diffusion<span> is the spread of particles through random motion from regions of high concentration to regions of lower concentration. Because </span>diffusion<span> works without barriers, when </span>smoke<span> is emitted into the air, it can easily travel to surrounding areas.  hope this can help you ^_^ </span>

A ball was rolling downhill at 2 m/s. After 5s, it was rolling at 90 m/s. What is its acceleration?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

17.6 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v_{f} = 90 m/s (final velocity)

v_{i} = 2 m/s (initial velocity)

Δt = 5s (change in time)

The formula for acceleration is:

a_{avg} = Δv / Δt

We can find Δv by doing

Δv = v_{f} - v_{i}

Replace the values

Δv = 90m/s - 2m/s

Δv= 88m/s

Using the equation from earlier, we can find the acceleration by dividing the average velocity by time.

a_{avg} = Δv / Δt

a_{avg} = \frac{88m/s}{5/s}

acceleration = 17.6 m/s^{2}
