Convection is the circular motion that occurs as hotter air or liquid increases when the cooler air or liquid drops down, and has faster moving molecules, rendering it less dense. Convection currents within the earth shift layers of magma, and currents are formed by convection in the ocean.

Heat energy can transfer by convection when there is a significant difference in temperature between two parts of a fluid. When this temperature difference exists, hot fluids rise and cold fluids sink, and then currents, or movements, are created in the fluid.

A 1.00 kg particle has the xy coordinates (-1.20 m, 0.500 m) and a 4.50 kg particle has the xy coordinates (0.600 m, -0.750 m).

Answer:

a) The x coordinate of the third mass is -1.562 meters.

b) The y coordinate of the third mass is -0.944 meters.

Explanation:

The center of mass of a system of particles ( $\vec r_{cm}$ ), measured in meters, is defined by this weighted average:

$\vec r_{cm} = \frac{\Sigma_{i=1}^{n}\,m_{i}\cdot \vec r_{i}}{\Sigma_{i=1}^{n}\,m_{i}}$ (1)

Where:

$m_{i}$ - Mass of the i-th particle, measured in kilograms.

$\vec r_{i}$ - Location of the i-th particle with respect to origin, measured in meters.

If we know that $\vec r_{cm} = (-0.500\,m,-0.700\,m)$ , $m_{1} = 1\,kg$ , $\vec r_{1} = (-1.20\,m, 0.500\,m)$ , $m_{2} = 4.50\,kg$ , $\vec r_{2} = (0.600\,m, -0.750\,m)$ and $m_{3} = 4\,kg$ , then the coordinates of the third particle are:

$(-0.500\,m, -0.700\,m) = \frac{(1\,kg)\cdot (-1.20\,m,0.500\,m)+(4.50\,kg)\cdot (0.600\,m,-0.750\,m)+(4\,kg)\cdot \vec r_{3}}{1\,kg+4.50\,kg+4\,kg}$

$(-4.75\,kg\cdot m, -6.65\,kg\cdot m) = (-1.20\,kg\cdot m, 0.500\,kg\cdot m) + (2.7\,kg\cdot m, -3.375\,kg\cdot m) +(4\cdot x_{3},4\cdot y_{3})$

$(4\cdot x_{3}, 4\cdot y_{3}) = (-6.25\,kg\cdot m,-3.775\,kg\cdot m)$

$(x_{3},y_{3}) = (-1.562\,m,-0.944\,m)$

a) The x coordinate of the third mass is -1.562 meters.

b) The y coordinate of the third mass is -0.944 meters.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

-5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

0.118909090909 s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{1.3^2-2^2}{2\times 0.02}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529\ m/s^2$

Dividing by g

$\dfrac{a}{g}=\dfrac{-57.75}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529g$

The acceleration is -5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{1.3-2}{-5.8868501529}\\\Rightarrow t=0.118909090909\ s$

The time taken is 0.118909090909 s

Yung's experiment is performed with light of wavelength 502 nm from excited helium atoms. Fringes are measured carefully on a sc

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

1.082 mm

Explanation:

From the question, we can see that we were given The following

Wavelength of the atoms, λ = 502 nm = 502*10^-9 m

Radius of the screen away from the double slit, r = 1.1 m

We know that Y(20) = 10.2 mm = 10.2*10^-3 m

d = (20 * R * λ) / Y(20)

d = (20 * 1.1 * 502*10^-9)/10.2*10^-3

d = 1.1*10^-5 / 10.2*10^-3

d = 1.082 mm

Therefore, we can say that the distance of separation between the two slits is 1.082 mm
