Which property of matter allows convection currents to form

Physics

Convection currents are formed due to the density difference between layers of fluid. The heated layers rise up because their density is less than that of the colder layers. Hope this helps!

What makes a clinical thermometer suitable for measuring small changes in body temperature? *
Nana76 [90]

Answer: Because of the fine bore of the tube.

Explanation:

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness. And thermometer is the instrument use to measure temperature.

The two most common types of themometric fluids for thermometer are alcohol and mercury.

What makes a clinical thermometer suitable for measuring small changes in body temperature is because of the fine bore of the tube which makes it possible for small temperature changes to cause large changes in the length of mercury columns, making the thermometer very sensitive to temperature changes.

The most prominent feature of the thermometer is the kink or constriction of bore near the bulb.

when an element tends to lose its valence electrons in chemical reactions , does it behave more like a metal or nonmetal
Juli2301 [7.4K]

It behaves more like a metal

Explanation:

When an element tends to lose its valence electrons in chemical reactions, they behave more like a metal.

Metals are electropositive.

Electropositivity or metallicity is the a measure of the tendency of atoms of an element to lose electrons.

This is closely related to ionization energy and the electronegativity of the element.

  • The lower the ionization energy of an element, the more electropositive or metallic the element is .

Metals are usually large size and prefers to be in reactions where they can easily lose their valence electrons.

When most metals lose their valence electrons, they attain stability.

Non-metals are electronegative. They prefer to gain electrons.

A solid weighs 16.5N on the surface of the moon. The force of gravity on the moon is 1.7N/Kg.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

mass = 9.7 kg

Explanation:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity (g)

16.5 = mass x 1.7

mass = \frac{16.5}{1.7} = 9.7 kg

A runner traveling with an initial velocity of 1.1 m/s accelerates at a constant rate of 0.8 m/s2fora time of 2.0 s.(a).What is
pychu [463]

Answer:

The final velocity of the runner at the end of the given time is 2.7 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the runner, u = 1.1 m/s

constant acceleration, a = 0.8 m/s²

time of motion, t = 2.0 s

The velocity of the runner at the end of the given time is calculate as;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the runner at the end of the given time;

v = 1.1 + (0.8)(2)

v = 2.7 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the runner at the end of the given time is 2.7 m/s.

A line from the Brackett series of hydrogen has a wavelength of 1945nm (or 1.0979x10^7m). From which state did the electron orig
Zarrin [17]
We use the Rydberg Equation for this which is expressed as:

<span>1/ lambda = R [ 1/(n2)^2 - 1/(n1)^2]
</span>
where lambda is the wavelength, where n represents the final and initial states. Brackett series means that the initial orbit that electron was there is 4 and R is equal to 1.0979x10^7m<span>. Thus,
</span>
1/ lambda = R [ 1/(n2)^2 - 1/(n1)^2]
1/1.0979x10^7m = 1.0979x10^7m [ 1/(n2)^2 - 1/(4)^2]

Solving for n2, we obtain n=1.
