Which of the following statement regarding convection is WRONG? Select one: a. Contribution due to random molecular motion reduc

es as the flow progresses in perpendicular direction from the surface b. Contribution due to advection reduces as the flow progresses in perpendicular direction from the surface c. Heat transfer is dominated by random molecular motion near the surface where fluid velocity is low d. Heat transfer occurs solely due to random molecular motion at the interface between fluid and surface where the fluid velocity is zero

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Convection is defined as the process in which when heat is supplied to a fluid (liquid or gas) then denser substance (cooler) will sink at the bottom whereas less dense substance (hotter) will rise towards the top.

This intermixing of fluids leads to the generation of convection currents. This macroscopic motion of fluid particles is responsible for convection.

Also, contribution due to the random molecular motion reduces as the flow progresses in perpendicular direction from the surface. Heat transfer is dominated by random molecular motion near the surface where fluid velocity is low.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options wrong statement is heat transfer occurs solely due to random molecular motion at the interface between fluid and surface where the fluid velocity is zero.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Ocean Currents

Explanation:

The correct answer is Ocean currents.

When the earth receives solar radiation, a large fraction of this incident radiation is usually absorbed by the oceans and the seas, which become warm. Usually, equitorial regions are the ones that have this phenomenon. Now, when ocean currents are flowing from the equator, they usually carry this warm water with them thereby moving the greatest amount of heat from the equator on its way out.

For example, In the Pacific Ocean, there is a current known as Alaska Current that carries warm water in the northward direction thereby making Anchorage which is Alaska's largest city to have a much mild weather than the inland areas with the same latitude.

A teacher performs a flame test lab experiment for various compounds. During the lab, the teacher mislabels one of the solutions
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: By performing the flame test

Explanation:

The flame test can be performed by the teacher to visually identify the substance in the solution. The metals give a characteristic color on burning. The heat of the flame causes the excitation of the electrons present in the metal ions this leads to release of energy along with the emission of visible wavelength of light. This visible light can be observed by human eye. For example, the copper produces the blue color in flame, barium gives green flame, and sodium gives yellow flame.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

C) ball rollinflown a hill

Explanation:

The question asks to  identify the endothermic process in the list of options. By way of elimination, we have;

A) condensation of water on a wind shield of a car

Condensation is an exothermic process. That is, heat is given out as the gases change into the liquid state of matter.

B) formation of copper

This is an exothermic process. Capture of electrons by a cation is always exothermic.

C) ball rollinflown a hill

This is the correct option. Energy is absorbed by the ball as it moves on the hill

D) formation of ice from liquid water

Freezing is an example of exothermic reaction. Heat is given off to the surroundings.

E) oxide from copper and oxygen

Formation of metal oxides and most reactions involving oxygen are exothermic reactions,
