The correct answer to the question will be D). Liquids and gases.

EXPLANATION:

Convection is the type of mode of heat transfer in which there will be actual motion of particles from one part to the another part of a fluid.

In case of liquids, the particles which are present at the bottom of the container get heated up first and become lighter. The lighter particles will go up and the top heavier particles will move downward. Again the same process will be repeated. In this way, a convection cycle is produced.

For instance, heating of water.

In case of gases, same thing happens just like liquid. The air particles will be heated up first and becomes lighter. These heated particles will move upward. Due to this, an empty space will be created in that region. In order to occupy the empty space, the air will flow from another region which is at low temperature as compared to the heated region. Again, the same process will be repeated which will results into the formation of convection cycle .

Hence, convection occurs both in liquids and gases.

The heat transfer involving convection is a process that is dependent in the density gradients of substances. This is better suited for fluids which are composed of the liquids and gases. Hence, the answer for this item is most appropriately letter D.

HELPP ME PLEASE !!!! In your own words, explain how the number of sunspots can affect the overall global climate on Earth. 50 PO
Alex_Xolod [135]
Sunspots are storms on the sun’s surface that are marked by intense magnetic activity. Sunspots are cooler than the rest of the Sun, but many scientists enctis think that when there are a lot of sunspots, the Sun actually gets hotter. This affects the weather here on Earth, and also radio reception. Without sunspots the Earth would probably be cooler.

The population of weights for men attending a local health club is normally distributed with a mean of 171-lbs and a standard de
Mariana [72]

Answer:

186 lbs per man.

Explanation:

If we assume that we have 35 men in the elevator, and the elevator will be overloaded if the total weight is in excess of 6510-lbs, so we just need to take average:

6510 lbs / 35 = 186 lbs per man.

Have a nice day!

A bicyclist starts at point P and travels around a triangular path that takes her through points Q and R before returning to the
REY [17]

Answer:

Displacement by cyclist is zero.

Explanation:

In the given question bicyclist is travelling in a rectangular track having P , Q and R edges.

The bicyclist starts from P and travel through Q and R and returned to P again.

We need to find its displacement.

We know displacement  of a body is its difference between its initial position to final position.

Here in the given question the bicyclist returns to P again.

Therefore, total displacement by bicyclist is zero.

Hence, this is the required solution.
