Which property of matter allows convection currents to form

Physics
1 answer:
USPshnik [31]3 years ago
4 0
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!

An 85-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (4km above the ground ) what is the potential energy
Airida [17]
Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters

Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules

A glider with mass m = 0.230 kg sits on a frictionless horizontal air track, connected to a spring with force constant k = 4.50
loris [4]

Answer

given,

mass of glider = 0.23 Kg

spring constant = k = 4.50 N/m

spring stretched to 0.130 m

The springs potential energy =

 U = \dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

 U = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4.5 \times 0.13^2

        U = 0.038 J

at x = 0,the only energy will be kinetic .

 \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=0.038

 \dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.23 \times v^2=0.038

         v² = 0.3304

         v = 0.575 m/s

displacement of the glider

      using conservation of energy

 \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

 x =v\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

 x =3\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.23}{4.5}}

        x = 0.678 m

Describe how pieces of rope move as waves pass
MaRussiya [10]
Well, as the waves move it moves the rope as if its trying to take shape of it. Since the rope it light it will move along the ocean and the ocean will keep pushing up on the rope. (even without the waves the water is pushing the rope up so it can take its shape)

Maybe that'll help

A certain kind of glass has an index of refraction of 1.640 for blue light of wavelength 440 nm and an index of 1.595 for red li
seraphim [82]

Answer: 18.27°

Explanation:

Given

Index of refraction of blue light, n(b) = 1.64

Wavelength of blue light, λ(b) = 440 nm

Index of refraction of red light, n(r) = 1.595

Wavelength of red light, λ(r) = 670 nm

Angle of incident, θ = 30°

Angle of refraction of red light is

θ(r) = sin^-1 [(n(a)* sin θ) / n(r)], where n(a) = index of refraction of air = 1

So that,

θ(r) = sin^-1 [(1 * sin 30) / 1.595]

θ(r) = sin^-1 (0.5 / 1.595)

θ(r) = sin^-1 0.3135

θ(r) = 18.27°
