You can comfortably hold your fingers close beside a candle flame, but not very close above the flame. why? challenge (optional)

Inessa05 [86]

The candle flame releases hot gases, which directly go in upwards directions. Due to which the air near the flame of the candle is very hot and dense. The particles along with vapour move up. And since the sideways, the air is not very dense and hot, we are able to hold the candle. In anti-gravity region, there will be no density differences and also, the convection process wont occur. So, the candle quickly snuffs off.

A polar bear runs at a speed of 11 m/s and has a mass of 380.2 kg. How much Kinetic energy does the bear have?

Yanka [14]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Kinetic \ energy \ of \ the \ bear (KE) = 23002.1 \ J}$

Given:

Mass of the polar bear (m) = 6.8 kg

Speed of the polar bear (v) = 5.0 m/s

To Find:

Kinetic energy of the polar bear (KE)

Explanation:

Formula:

$\boxed{ \bold{\sf KE = \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }}$

Substituting values of m & v in the equation:

$\sf \implies KE = \frac{1}{2} \times 380.2 \times {11}^{2}$

$\sf \implies KE = \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}} \times \cancel{2} \times 190.1 \times 121$

$\sf \implies KE = 190.1 \times 121$

$\sf \implies KE = 23002.1 \: J$

$\therefore$

Kinetic energy of the polar bear (KE) = 23002.1 J
