Answer: the air above a wildfire

Explanation:

First part of question is: The diagram shows currents that form as water is heated.

When water is being heated from below, convection currents are used. This happens when the molecules at the bottom are heated thus giving them energy and enabling them rise to the surface. The colder water at the surface will therefore sink to the bottom where is is heated making it rise as well and the process is repeated.

When a wildfire is ignited, the concept is the same. The air above the wildfire is the water in this scenario. It is heated at the bottom and rises thereby forcing the air above to come down and be heated as well. Both situations uses convectional currents.

An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions.
N76 [4]

Answer:

He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.

What is the force due to gravity of a 38 kg student?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

F_g = 372.78 N

Explanation:

Formula for force of gravity is;

F_g = mg

Where;

m is mass

g is acceleration due to gravity

We are given;

Mass = 38 kg

Acceleration due to gravity has a constant value of 9.81 m/s²

Thus;

F_g = 38 × 9.81

F_g = 372.78 N

If a bottle is being squeezed with a force of 10 Newtons and the area of the bottle is 15

squared inches. What is the pressure??

Answer:

1025.64 N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure: This can be defined as the ratio of force to area. The si unit of pressure is N/m².

From the question,

P = F/A........................ Equation 1

Where F = Force, A = Area.

Given: F = 10 Newtons, A = 15 Squared Inches = (15×0.00065) = 0.00975 m²

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = 10/0.00975

P = 1025.64 N/m²

Hence the pressure of the bottle is 1025.64 N/m²

At noon on a clear day, sunlight reaches the earth\'s surface at Madison, Wisconsin, with an average intensity of approximately
Dmitrij [34]

Intensity of sunlight at given position is defined as power received per unit area

so here we can say

I = 2 kJ/s*m^2

area  on which photons are received is given as

A = 4.80 cm^2 = 4.80 * 10^-4 m^2

now we can find the power received due to sunlight

P = I*A

P = 2* 10^3 * 4.80 * 10^-4

P = 0.96 Watt

now we can say this power is due to photons that strikes on surface of earth

so here we can say

P = N\frac{hc}{\lambda}

given here that

\lambda = 510 nm

0.96 = N\frac{6.6 * 10^{-34}* 3 * 10^8}{510*10^{-9}}

0.96 = N * 3.88 * 10^{-19}

N = \frac{0.96}{3.88*10^{-19}}

N = 2.47 * 10^{18}

so it will strike 2.47 * 10^18 photons on given area per second
