The answer is C. Convection.

Radiation is the transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves. Conduction, on the other hand, is energy transfer through solid material. Condensation occurs when warm gas makes contact with a cold surface or environment, which causes a change in state from gas to liquid. These definitions rule out choices A, B, and D.

Convection is movement of particles in fluid or gas. As liquid/gas heats up, it becomes less dense and rises, moving away from the heat source. When it rises, it eventually cools down and sinks again. It is warmed up again and the cycle continues. This is why there is a circular motion when convection occurs.

1. When you have different masses for each sphere, how does the force that the larger mass sphere exerts on the smaller mass sph

aleksandrvk [35]

1) The forces are equal (Newton's third law of motion)

2) The force between the spheres will quadruple

3) The force of gravity exerted by the notebook on you is negligible

Explanation:

In this part of the problem, we want to compare the gravitational force exerted by the larger mass sphere on the smaller mass sphere to the force exerted by the smaller mass sphere to the larger mass sphere.

We can do this by using Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the larger mass sphere as object A and the smaller mass sphere as object B. This law tells us that the two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction: therefore, the gravitational force exerted by the larger mass sphere on the smaller mass sphere is equal to the force exerted by the smaller mass sphere to the larger mass sphere.

The magnitude of the gravitational force between the two spheres is given by

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

$m_1, m_2$ are the masses of the two spheres

r is the separation between the two spheres

In this problem, we are asked to find what happens when the distance between the spheres is halved, therefore when the new distance is

$r'=\frac{r}{2}$

Substituting into the equation, we find

$F'=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r'^2}=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{(r/2)^2}=4(\frac{Gm_1 m_2}{r^2})=4F$

So, the force between the two spheres will quadruple.

We can give an estimate for the gravitational force exerted by your notebook on you.

As we said, the magnitude of the gravitational force is

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

Where:

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

Let's estimate the following:

$m_1 = 60 kg$ is your mass

$m_2 = 2 kg$ is the mass of the notebook

$r=1 m$ , assuming the notebook is at 1 metre from you

Substituting,

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(60)(2)}{1^2}=8.0\cdot 10^{-9} N$

We see that this force has an extremely small value: therefore, it is almost negligible in daily life, where other much stronger forces act on you.

When the liquid line is restricted, the supply of refrigerant to the metering device is reduced. What is the effect on suction p

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The suction pressure decreases and the superheat increases when the liquid line is restricted and the supply of refrigerant to the metering device is reduced.

Explanation:

1. The five components of refrigeration are:

Fluid refrigerant
Compressor
Condenser coil
Evaporator coil
Expansion device.

The compressor limits the vapor released by the refrigerant. This

causes a rise in pressure (in refrigerant), which then pushes the

vapor into the coils on the outside of the refrigerator.

2. Now when the cooler air meets the warm gas present in the coils, it

gets converted into liquid form.

3. Thus, when the liquid form is at high pressure, the refrigerant then

cools down as it flows through the coils placed in the fridge ( in both

freezing and normal sections).

4. The refrigerant also absorbs the warm air present in the fridge, which

causes it to evaporate and flow back through the compressor and the

cycle repeats in the same form.

Thus, when the liquid line is restricted and the supply of refrigerant to the metering device is reduced it causes a decrease in suction pressure and an increase in superheat.

Your current exam mean is 97.2. if you receive a 99 on the next exam, this will have the effect of ______.

GarryVolchara [31]

If your current exam mean is 97.2. and you receive a 99 on the next exam, then this will have the effect of increasing the mean.

In statistics, the mean is an average value used to calculate when taking different measurements, which can be fundamental to collecting statistically significant information.

In conclusion, if your current exam mean is 97.2. and you receive a 99 on the next exam, then this will have the effect of increasing the mean.
