A lava lamp is a decorative item found in some homes. The lamp portion contains a waxy substance in a liquid medium. When the la

mp is plugged in, a bulb at the base of the lamp slowly heats the waxy substance sitting at the bottom of the liquid. Eventually, the waxy substance will separate into globs that quickly rise to the top of the lamp where the surrounding liquid cools them and causes them to fall back to the bottom. Based on the information provided, a lava lamp could be used to provide an example of which process of thermal energy transfer?

Answer:

Conduction, convection, and radiation

Explanation:

Conduction is the process in which energy is transferred from a hot body to a cooler body. Convection is a process by which heat is transferred as a result of the movement of heated fluid in the form of air or water. Radiation refers to the transmission of energy through a material medium.

Based on the information provided, a lava lamp could be used to provide an example of conduction, convection, and radiation.

The length of a bicycle pedal arm is 0.152 m, and a downward force of 118 N is applied to the pedal by the rider's foot. What is
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:8.968 N-m

Explanation:

Given

Length of arm=0.152 m

Downward force=118 N

angle made by arm with vertical=30^{\circ}

Force can be divided into two components

It's sin component will contribute towards torque while cos component will not contibute

Torque =Fsin30\times L

T=118\times sin30\times 0.152

T=8.968 N-m

Which would most likely cause molten rock material to become glassy igneous rock?
Ainat [17]
The cooling on earth's surface (extrusive)  makes a molten rock to become glassy. The lava cools so fast that crystals don't have time to form, which makes it glassy. Hope this helps!

A car traveling with constant speed travels 150 km in 7200 s what is speed of the car
spayn [35]

The speed of the car is exactly 150/7200 km/sec, or 125/6 meters/sec. 

In more familiar units, that speed is equivalent to ...

-- (20 and 5/6) meters/sec

-- 75 km/hour

A coin released at rest from the top of a tower hits the ground after falling 1.5 s. What is the speed of the coin as it hits th
Inessa05 [86]

initially coin is at rest and then it drop for total time t = 1.5 s

so here the speed of the coin at which it will hit the floor is to be find

v_f = v_i + at

here we know that

v_i = 0

a = 9.8 m/s^2

t = 1.5 s

now from above equation

v_f = 0 + 1.5 (9.8)

v_f = 14.7 m/s

so it will hit the floor with speed 14.7 m/s

a transmission-line cable, of length 3 km, consists of 19 strands of identical copper conductors, each 1.5 mm in diameter. becau
Ivan

the resistance of the cable is 582.9 ohms

we are given the length of the cable which is  3 km,  of  1.5 mm in, the diameter  and resistivity of copper which is 1.72 m

The formula  we are referring to for calculating the resistance of the  cable is

R = ρl/A.

As there are 19 strands of copper conductors, so the resistance will be

R = 19( ρl/A)

Here  ρ is the resisitivity =  1.72 , l is the length  = 3(1+0.05)*10³3= 3150 m

A=pie/4(1.5 x 10⁻³)^2 =1.766 x 10⁻⁶ =1.766 x 10^-6

Substituting the values in the formula  we  get

R = 19 ( 1.72*3150 )/1.766 x 10⁻⁶

 = 582.9 ohm
