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.

An object of 4 cm length is placed at a distance of 18 cm in front of a convex mirror of radius of curvature 30 cm. Find the pos

erica [24]

Answer:

The position is 8.18cm from the mirror.

Nature is b=virtual

Size is 1.82cm

Explanation:

Note that for a convex mirror, the image distance and the focal length are negative;

Given

Object height H0 = 4cm

object distance u = 18cm

Radius of curvature R = 30cm

Since f = R/2

f = 30/2

f = -15cm

Recall that:

$\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{v}\\\frac{1}{-15}=\frac{1}{18}+\frac{1}{v} \\\frac{1}{v} =\frac{1}{-15} -\frac{1}{18}\\ \frac{1}{v} = \frac{-18-15}{270}\\\frac{1}{v} = \frac{-33}{270}\\v=\frac{-270}{33}\\v=-8.18cm$

Since the image distance is negative, this shows that the image is a virtual image.

To get the size:

$\frac{H_1}{H_0}=\frac{v}{u}\\\frac{H_1}{4}=\frac{8.18}{18}\\18H_i=32.72\\H_i=\frac{32.72}{18}\\H_i= 1.82cm$

You can obtain a rough estimate of the size of a molecule by the following simple experiment. Let a droplet of oil spread out on

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The diameter of the molecule of oil is $1.405 10 ^{-9} \ m$

Explanation:

We define density as

$\rho = \frac{mass}{volume}$

So, the volume for our oil will be

$volume = \frac{mass}{\rho}$

$volume = \frac{7.62 \ 10^{-7} \ kg}{ 912 \ \frac{kg}{m^3} }$

$volume = 8.355 \ 10 ^{-10} \ m^3$

the volume for a cylinder with radius r and height h is

$volume = \pi r^2 h$

So, we can obtain the height of the droplet of oil as:

$h = \frac{volume}{\pi r^2}$

the radius is

$r=43.5 \ cm = 0.435 \ m$

$h = 1.405 10 ^{-9} \ m^3$

And this is the diameter of the oil molecule.

True or false The momentum of a 100kg object traveling at 3 m/s is 300 N

melomori [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Momentum of an object can be defined as the product of its mass and velocity at which it is travelling. With that in mind, momentum = 3*100=300(kg⋅m/s).

One thing to note is the units mentioned. The SI unit of momentum is kg * m/s as it is the product of mass(kilograms) and velocity(meter per second) and not Newton.
