The spread of fire from the ground floor to an upper floor of a building primarily due to heat transfer by

Physics

sp2606 [1]4 years ago

The correct answer is by convection.

In fact, in a fluid (like the air in the room full of fire) the warmer parts of the fluid move upward, replacing the colder parts which go down. For this very same reason, the fire spreads moving toward the upper floors of the bulding.

How does the atmosphere’s interaction with different wavelengths of light help to protect life on earth?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Ozone layer in the upper atmosphere filters most of the harmful radiations of shorter wavelength. It actually absorbs the hazardous radiations like ultraviolet, gamma rays, x- rays and most of all those having shorter wavelength then the visible light. That's how the earth's atmosphere protects life on earth. But unfortunately, climate change and global warming is causing the depletion of ozone layer which is causing skin related diseases and harming not only the human life but also the plants and animals.

How long Tina, a ballerina, in the air when she leaps straight up with a speed of 1.8 m/s?
Tems11 [23]

The acceleration of gravity on or near the surface of the Earth is 9.8 m/s².
Anything acted on only by gravity loses 9.8 m/s of upward speed, or gains
9.8 m/s of downward speed, every second.

Leaping straight upward at 1.8 m/s, Tina keeps rising until she runs out of
upward speed.  That happens in (1.8/9.8) = 0.1837 second after the leap.

After that, Finkel's First Law of Motion takes over:
"What goes up must come down."

The dropping part of the leap is symmetrical with the first.  Please don't
make me go through proving it.  Tina hits the floor at the same speed of
1.8 m/s with which she left it, and it takes the same amount of time to drop
from the peak to the floor as it took to rise from the floor to the peak.

So her total time out of contact with the floor is

                     2 x (0.1837 sec)  =  0.367 second  (rounded)
