Because of convection, the warmest air in a room

1 answer:

6 0

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>

Where coastal rock is softer, waves erode the land faster

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Headlands and bays are created where there are bands of hard and soft rock which meet the coastline at right angles. Softer rock is eroded more quickly and erodes backwards to form bays (which may have beaches). The harder rocks are more resistant to erosion and jut out into the sea to form exposed headlands

What is your acceleration while sitting in your chair. the latitude of corvallis is 44.4˚.?

marta [7]

<span>You can start with the equations you know

a=v^2/r = (2pi*r/T)^2/r = 4pi^2r/T^2

Radius of earth (R) = 6378.1 km
Time in one day (T) = 86400 seconds
Latitude = 44.4 degrees

If you draw a circle and have the radius going out at a 44.4 degree angle above the center you can then find the r.

r=Rcos(44.4)
r=6378.1cos(44.4)
r= 4556.978198 km or 4556978 m

Now you can plug this value into the acceleration equation from above...

a= 1.8*10^8/7.47*10^9
a= .0241 m/s^2 </span>

A truck traveling at a constant speed of 28 m/s passes a more slowly moving car. The instant the truck passes the car, the car b

choli [55]

Answer:

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

Explanation:

given,

constant speed of truck = 28 m/s

acceleration of car = 1.2 m/s²

passes the truck in 545 m

speed of the car when it just pass the truck = ?
