What does convection mean

Physics
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]3 years ago

Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat

A ship leaves the island of Guam and sails a distance 255 km at an angle 49.0 o north of west. Part A: In which direction must i
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement in vector form .Consider east as x axes and north as Y axes west as - ve x axes and south as - ve Y axes . 255 km can be represented by the following vector

D₁ = - 255 cos 49 i  + 255 sin49 j

= - 167.29 i + 192.45 j

Let D₂ be the further displacement which lands him 125 km east . So the resultant displacement is

D = 125 i

So

D₁ + D₂ = D

- 167.29 i + 192.45 j + D₂ = 125 i

D₂ = 125 i + 167.29 i - 192.45 j

= 292.29 i - 192.45 j

Angle of D₂ with x axes θ

tan θ = -192.45 / 292.29

= - 0.658

θ = 33.33 south of east

Magnitude of D₂

D₂² = ( 192.45)² + ( 292.29)²

D₂ = 350 km approx

If the current through a 20-Ω resistor is 8.0 A , how much energy is dissipated by the resistor in 1.0 h ? Express your answer w
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

P(3600)=593.247W

Explanation:

First, let's find the voltage through the resistor using ohm's law:

V=IR=20*8=160V

AC power as function of time can be calculated as:

P(t)= V*I*cos(\phi)-V*I*cos(2 \omega t-\phi)  (1)

Where:

\phi=Phase\hspace{3}angle\\\omega= Angular\hspace{3}frequency

Because of the problem doesn't give us additional information, let's assume:

\phi=0\\\omega=2 \pi f=2*\pi *(60)=120\pi

Evaluating the equation (1) in t=3600 (Because 1h equal to 3600s):

P(3600)=160*8*cos(0)-160*8*cos(2*120\pi*3600-0)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*cos(2714336.053)\\P(3600)=1280-1280*0.5365255751\\P(3600)=1280-686.7527361=593.2472639\approx=593.247W

A circular wire loop of radius 15.0 cm carries a current of 2.60
Korolek [52]
Part (a): Magnetic dipole moment

Magnetic dipole moment = IA, I = Current, A = Area of the loop
Then,
Magnetic dipole moment = 2.6*π*0.15^2 = 0.184 Am^2

Part (b): Torque acting on the loop
T = IAB SinФ, where B = Magnetic field, Ф = Angle
Then,
T = Magnetic dipole moment*B*SinФ = 0.184*12*Sin 41 = 1.447 Nm

When an object slides across the floor, it is slowed down by friction and the floor surface gets warmer. what energy conversion
OverLord2011 [107]
The movement of the object is considered to be kinetic energy while the object getting warmer indicates that there is thermal (heat) energy formed.

Based on this, as the object slides across the floor, friction slows down this motion and the object becomes warmer as kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy.
