No. Solids can't undergo convection,

Explanation:

Convection is heat removal by movement hot matter as exposed to cold matter bure to density differences in the expression of the gravity field. or heat transfer within moving currents.Convection works because hotter quicker moving molecules have a lower frequency and consequently rise to the surface. In a solid the molecules can't move corresponding to each other they can only vibrate

<span>No. Solids can't undergo convection, the reason is that convection works because moving molecules which are hotter and faster have a lower density and therefore rise to the surface. With a solid now, the molecules don't move they can only vibrate.

Therefore solids conduct.</span>

One of the most important properties of materials in many applications is strength. Two of the qualitative measures of the stren

To solve this exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to Tensile Strength and Shear Strenght.

In Materials Mechanics, generally the bodies under certain loads are subject to both Tensile and shear strenghts.

By definition we know that the tensile strength is defined as

$\sigma = \frac{F}{A}$

Where,

$\sigma =$ Tensile strength

F = Tensile Force

A = Cross-sectional Area

In the other hand we have that the shear strength is defined as

$\sigma_y = \frac{F_y}{A}$

where,

$\sigma_y =$ Shear strength

$F_y =$ Shear Force

$A_0 =$ Parallel Area

PART A) Replacing with our values in the equation of tensile strenght, then

$311*10^6 = \frac{F}{(15*10^{-6})(30*10^{-2})}$

Resolving for F,

$F= 1399.5N$

PART B) We need here to apply the shear strength equation, then

$\sigma_y = \frac{F_y}{A}$

$210*10^6 = \frac{F_y}{15*10^{-6}30*10^{-2}}$

$F_y = 945N$

In such a way that the material is more resistant to tensile strength than shear force.

Why does the sky change colors at sunset?

KiRa [710]

Atmospheric refraction is the deviation of light or other electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height. ... Refraction not only affects visible light rays, but all electromagnetic radiation, although in varying degrees.

So in short, the answer is D.

Vlad [161]

As we know that in transformers we have

$\frac{V_s}{V_p} = \frac{N_s}{N_p}$

here we know that

$V_s = 17,500 Volts$

$V_p = 350,000 Volts$

$N_s = 600 coils$

now from above equation we will have

$\frac{17500}{350000} = \frac{600}{N_p}$

$N_p = 600\times \frac{350000}{17500}$

$N_p = 12000 coils$

Urgent!!!!!! 20 points!!!!!!<br> how are the speed, wavelength and frequency of a wave related

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength. Speed shows how long it takes for wavelengths to travel.
