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

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.

A hollow cylinder that is rolling without slipping is given a velocity of 5.0 m/s and rolls up an incline to a vertical height o

inysia [295]

Answer:

The hollow cylinder rolled up the inclined plane by 1.91 m

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, total kinetic energy = total potential energy

$M.E_T = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2 + mgh$

The total energy at the bottom of the inclined plane = total energy at the top of the inclined plane.

$\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega_i^2 + mg(0) = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega_f^2 + mgh$

moment of inertia, I, of a hollow cylinder = ¹/₂mr²

substitute for I in the equation above;

$\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}mr^2 \omega_i^2) = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}mr^2 \omega_f^2) + mgh\\\\ but \ v = r \omega\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}m v_i^2 ) = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}m v_f^2) + mgh\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 +\frac{1}{4}mv_i^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 +\frac{1}{4}mv_f^2 +mgh\\\\\frac{3}{4}mv_i^2 = \frac{3}{4}mv_f^2 +mgh\\\\mgh = \frac{3}{4}mv_i^2 - \frac{3}{4}mv_f^2\\\\gh = \frac{3}{4}v_i^2 - \frac{3}{4}v_f^2\\\\$

$h = \frac{3}{4g}(v_1^2 -v_f^2)$

given;

v₁ = 5.0 m/s

vf = 0

g = 9.8 m/s²

$h = \frac{3}{4g}(v_1^2 -v_f^2) =\frac{3}{4*9.8}(5^2 -0) = 1.91 \ m$

Therefore, the hollow cylinder rolled up the inclined plane by 1.91 m

1. A DC-10 jumbo jet maintains an airspeed of 550 mph in a southwesterly direction. The velocity of the jet stream is a constant

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The magnitude of actual velocity is 496.67 mph and its direction is 51.54° with the x axis in the third quadrant.

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of jumbo jet in southwesterly direction $(v_j)$ = 550 mph

Velocity of jet stream from west to east direction $(v_s)=80\ mph$

First let us draw a vectorial representation of the above velocity vectors.

Consider the south direction as negative y axis and west direction as negative x axis.

From the diagram,

The velocity of the jet can be represented as:

$\vec{v_j}=-550\cos(45)\vec{i}+(-550\sin(45)\vec{j} )\\\\\vec{v_j}=-388.91\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}\ mph$

Similarly, the velocity of the stream is, $\vec{v_s}=80\vec{i}$

Now, the vector sum of the above two vectors gives the actual velocity of the aircraft. So, the resultant velocity is given as:

$\vec{v}=\vec{v_j}+\vec{v_s}\\\\\vec{v}=-388.91\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}+80\vec{i}\\\\\vec{v}=(-388.91+80)\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}\\\\\vec{v}=(-308.91)\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}$

Now, magnitude is given as the square root of sum of the squares of the 'i' and 'j' components. So,

$|\vec{v}|=\sqrt{(-308.91)^2+(-388.91)^2}\\\\|\vec{v}|=496.67\ mph$

As the horizontal and vertical components of actual velocity negative, the resultant vector makes an angle $\theta$ with the x axis in the third quadrant.
