What happens to the convection fluid as it heats up? How might this relate to masses of heated air?

Physics
1 answer:
Hitman42 [59]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The convection process plays an important role in the liquid. Due to the increasing heat supply or high amount of temperature, the fluid gets heated up, as a result of which it becomes warm, less dense and eventually rises up forming convection cells.

In the interior of the earth, the hot molten rocks get heated up due to the heat supplied by the core of the earth. This makes the magma warm and less dense and rises upward forming convection currents in the mantle.

This convection process is similar to the convection cells that form in the atmosphere, where the hot, less dense air rises up in the atmosphere forming a low-pressure zone. This uprising air forms convection cells, in which the warm air rises and as it rises high in the atmosphere, the temperature becomes low, making the air cold and it eventually sinks.

A pickup truck and a hatchback car start at the same position. If the truck is moving at a constant 33.9m/s and the hatchback ca
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

s = 589.3 m

Explanation:

Let the truck and car meet at a distance = s  m

The truck is moving at constant velocity = v

so s= v * t ---------- (1)

car:

Vi = 0 m/s

a = 3.9 m/s²

s = Vi* t + 1/2 a t²

s= 0 * t +  1/2 a t²

s =  1/2 a t²   ----------- (2)

compare equation (1)  and equation (2)

s= v * t = 1/2 a t²

⇒ v * t = 1/2 a t²

⇒ t = 2 * v/ a

⇒ t = (2 * 33.9 )/ 3.9

⇒ t = 17. 38 s

Now

from equation (1)

s= v * t

s= 33.9 * 17.38

⇒ s = 589.3 m

At the surface of Jupiter's moon Io, the acceleration due to gravity is 1.81 m/s2 . A watermelon has a weight of 44.0 N at the s
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Weight at the surface of Jupiter's moon Io is 8.13 N .

Explanation:

Given :

Acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Jupiter's moon is g_m=1.81\ m/s^2 .

Weight of watermelon in earth , W=44\ N .

Acceleration due to gravity at the surface of earth is g=9.81\ m/s^2 .

We know , weight is given by :

W=mg\\m=\dfrac{W}{g}\\\\m=4.49\ kg

Therefore , mass at the surface of Jupiter's moon Io is :

W_m=mg_m\\\\W_m=4.49\times 1.81\\\\W_m=8.13 \ N

Hence , this is the required solution .

The unit used to measure electric current is the ampere (A). Now, assume that the current delivered at a wall socket reaches the
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

T = 0.017s

Explanation:

period is the time it takes a particle to make one oscillation

An electric current is periodic in nature

The current reaches 3.8A  ten times.  

So there must have been 10 cycles (10 periods) in 0.17s.   let 'T'  be the period:

T=\frac{t}{n}

t is the total time interval

n is the number of oscillations

T=\frac{0.17}{10}

10T = 0.17

T = 0.17/10 = 0.017s

You pull a block of mass m across across a frictionless table with a constant force. you also pull with an equal constant force
KiRa [710]
For any mass m:

a = F/m
v = √2*F/m*s = √2F/sm = k/√m
Momentum = mv = k√m
Energy = 1/ mv² = 1/2 m.k²/m = 1/2k²

SO
Both will have same energy
The larger mass will have greater momentum
