The colours we see are the wavelengths that are reflected or transmitted. For example, a red shirt looks red because the dye molecules in the fabric have absorbed the wavelengths of light from the violet/blue end of the spectrum.
Answer:
Explanation:
Laminar Flow is a very important topic discussed in physics in the subject of fluid dynamics. Basically, it explains how fluid particles behave at lower velocities. In such cases and when the viscosity of the fluid is low, the fluid particles flow smoothly in perfectly perpendicular layers that do not collide or cross each other. Unlike turbulent flow, which is the opposite. An example of Laminar flow can be seen when you open up a water hose with little pressure, the water simply flows out of the hose and looks very clear and smooth.
Answer: Larmor suggested in 1919 that a self-exciting dynamo could explain the magnetic field of the earth, as well as that of the sun and other stars, but it was Elsasser and Bullard in the 1940s who showed how motion in the liquid core of the earth might produce a self-sustaining magnetic field. By this time seismology and other studies had given a clearer picture of the earth, as having a solid inner core, a liquid outer core, both with a composition more of metal (mainly iron) than rock, and a rocky mantle, all below a thin crust that is all we can directly see. Energy from radioactivity travels outwards as heat, producing thermal convection in the core. It seems that this convection is the cause of the earth's magnetic field, although our knowledge of the core and its dynamics is sketchy. Our knowledge is limited to saying that flow regimes like those that may be occurring in the core can produce self-sustaining dynamos, with characteristics similar to that needed to produce the earth’s magnetic field.
