A liquid thermometer can be used to test for fevers. When body temperature increases, the liquid inside the thermometer expands

and
rises to show a higher
temperature reading. Which of the following explanations best describes the changes in thermal energy of the
particles during this specific example of heat transfer?
A. The tip of the thermometer is heated by radiation from the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by convection through the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to slow
down, rise, and expand.
B. The tip of the thermometer is heated by conduction from the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by convection through the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to slow
down, rise, and expand.
© C. The tip of the thermometer is heated by convection with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by conduction with the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then conduct heat causing the warmer particles to speed up,
rise, and expand
© D The tip of the thermometer is heated by conduction with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by conduction with the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to speed up,
rise, and expand

If a weighted, air-filled balloon sinks in a lake, it will _____.
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

C. Sink until it reaches equilibrium and then remain at a constant depth.

Explanation:

An object immersed in a fluid experiences buoyant force. If the net buoyant force is greater than the net weigh of the object, the object will float.

If the net buoyant force is less than the net wight of the object, it will sink until a depth where the total weight of the object and the force due to the fluid above the object equals the net buoyant force at the bottom of the object (equilibrium), then the object remains at a constant depth.
