Answer:
Explanation:
In case of diffraction , angular width of central maxima =2 λ/d
λ is wave length of light and d is slit width
In case of interference , angular width of each fringe
= λ /D
D is distance between two slits
No of interference fringe in central diffraction fringe
=2 λ/d x D/λ = 2 x D /d = 2 x .24/.03 = 16.
Radiation: Getting sunburnt on a beach.
- The sun’s radiation (no direct contact) is what causes the skin to burn.
Radiation: Microwave cooking food
- Microwaves use radiation to heat the food inside of it; between radio waves and infrared radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum
Conduction: Touching a hot car seat in the summer
- Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact (hand to seat).
Conduction: Burning yourself with a curling iron (Similar to above; direct contact).
Convection: An ocean breeze
- Convection near coastlines cause the transfer of energy; water warms and cools slower than land.
Conduction: Sliding down a hot metal slide in august
- You are in direct contact with the slide, which is hot due to the temperature.
Convection: Water in a boiling pot of macaroni
- The water, a liquid, is being heated by molecular motion.
Convection: Currents deep within the earth that cause tectonic plates to move
- Convection currents drive the movement of tectonic plates in the mantle, which is fluid/molten. The currents circulate under the asthenosphere.
Answer: ok
Explanation:
The molecules in hot air are moving faster than the molecules in cold air. Because of this, the molecules in hot air tend to be further apart on average, giving hot air a lower density. That means, for the same volume of air, hot air has fewer molecules and so it weighs less.
A theromometer is the increase or decrease of earths atmospheric temperture, thats how you would measure the temperture of the air around you.
