The current movement of air or water is a result of what action

Physics
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of differential heating. Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth.

A diode, which allows current to flow in one direction only, consists of two types of semiconductors joined together.
Nata [24]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

A diode, which allows current to flow in one direction only, consists of two types of semiconductors joined together.

A semiconductor can be defined as a crystalline solid substance that has its conductivity lying between that of a metal and an insulator, due to the effects of temperature or an addition of an impurity. Semiconductors are classified into two main categories;

1. Extrinsic semiconductor.

2. Intrinsic semiconductor.

An intrinsic semiconductor is a crystalline solid substance that is in its purest form and having no impurities added to it. Examples of intrinsic semiconductor are Germanium and Silicon.

In an intrinsic semiconductor, the number of free electrons is equal to the number of holes. Also, in an intrinsic semiconductor the number of holes and free electrons is directly proportional to the temperature; as the temperature increases, the number of holes and free electrons increases and vice-versa.

In an intrinsic semiconductor, each free electrons (valence electrons) produces a covalent bond.

A cannon is fired with an initial horizontal velocity of 20 m/s and initial vertical velocity of 25 m/s. After 3s in the air, th
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

60 m

Explanation:  

After 3 seconds of travel at 20 m/s, the projectile is 3·20 = 60 meters horizontally from the cannon.

__

The vertical height after 3 seconds is 0.9 m, so the straight-line distance from cannon to target is √(60^2 +0.9^2) ≈ 60.007 meters.

While eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich peanut butter drips on Dana shirt she tries to remove the peanut butter from her
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The water does not remove the peanut butter because the peanut butter is thicker substance than the water is, therefore it would not remove immediately.. It could also be because the brown dye or color in the peanut butter color or the peanut butter itself has already gone through her clothing Dana would have to remove it as much as she could with a towel water and some soap then throw it to the washer afterward.

Hope this helps, good luck:)
