The correct choice is
B. rises toward the ceiling
<span>In fact, the warmest air is also the air with least density: in warm air, the particles move faster, so the distance between them is larger, on average. Therefore, the warmest air is less dense, and because of that it tends to flow upwards (due to Archimede's principle) and it is replaced by the colder air, creating the so-called convection current.</span>

The thin atmosphere of Mars is thought to be due to the planet's lack of a magnetic field, which has allowed the Solar wind to blow away much of the gas the planet once had. Venus, despite still having a thick atmosphere of CO2, surprisingly has a similar problem

During science class, while studying mixtures, you mix together iron filings and sand. Your teacher challenges you to separate t
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer : Use a magnet to pull out the iron filings as they are attracted to a magnet

Explanation :  we use the magnet to separate the sand from the iron filing. Because the magnet has an attraction power.

We can say that we can use the magnet to attract the iron filings out of the mixture because iron is magnetic solid, but sand will not attract because sand is not magnetic solid.

So,  we use a magnet to pull out the iron filings as they are attracted to a magnet.

Two masses of size m and 4m are connected by a massless thread and are strung over a frictionless pulley of radius R and moment-
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Total kinetic energy of entire system is 3 mgl

Explanation:

Given two masses: m and 4m.

Since the pulley is frictionless and the thread is massless, the energy here is linked to the two masses.

Total kinetic energy of entire system = decrease in gravitational potential energy of the system.

Therefore, we have :

ΔKE = Δp

ΔKE = 4mgl - mgl

= 3 mgl

Total kinetic energy of entire system is 3 mgl

Studies of gymnasts show that their high rate of injuries to the Achilles tendon is due to tensions in the tendon that typically
konstantin123 [22]
The horizontal components, being opposite in direction, will produce a shearing effect on the tendon, leading to injury. Thus, they will be added.
As the angle of 23 is from the vertical, we calculate the horizontal component by using
Weight acting * sin(23)
And multiply it by 2 to get the total shearing force
The weight acting is 12 times their body weight. Thus:
53 * 9.81 * 12 = 6239.2 Newtons
The total force acting on the tendon:
2 * sin(23) * 6239.2
= 4,880
= 4,900 Newtons (2 significant figures)
