Liquids and Gases

Explanation:

Convection is a form of heat transfer that is predominant in liquids and gaseous substances. This form of heat transfer is driven by density differences between gases and liquids.

Convection involves the actual movement of the particles of a medium.
Boiling of food is clinical example of convection in liquids. Hot part of the food in contact with the heat source becomes less dense and more buoyant. They rise to the top of the medium and are replace by the denser and colder part of the food.
Land and sea breeze is an example of convection in gases. The land warms the air around it during the day. It is hotter and less dense. The air mass moves to replace the ones on the sea where the air is relatively cold due to high specific heat capacity of water.
The reverse process occurs at night.

Two rings of radius 5 cm are 20 cm apart and concentric with a common horizontal x-axis. The ring on the left carries a uniforml

Yanka [14]

Answer:

The electric field due to the right ring at a location midway between the two rings is $2.41\times10^{3}\ V/m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of first ring = 5 cm

Radius of second ring = 20 cm

Charge on the left of the ring = +30 nC

Charge on the right of the ring = -30 nC

We need to calculate the electric field due to the right ring at a location midway between the two rings

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\times\dfrac{qx}{(x^2+R^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times30\times10^{-9}\times0.1}{((0.1)^2+(0.2)^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E=2.41\times10^{3}\ V/m$

Hence, The electric field due to the right ring at a location midway between the two rings is $2.41\times10^{3}\ V/m$

The Hubble Space Telescope orbits Earth and sends images of distant objects. Why does Hubble form better images than the optical

postnew [5]

Answer: option c: It orbits beyond the Earth's atmosphere to avoid scattering of light.

Explanation:

Hubble space telescope orbits Earth and sends images of distant objects. The images formed by Hubble are better than the optical telescopes used on land. This is because the Hubble telescope is a space telescope. Light from the distant objects when reaches the land telescopes transmits through atmosphere, where scattering occurs. Some the light rays bounce back. This is avoided by the space telescope Hubble.
