Radiation: Getting sunburnt on a beach.
- The sun’s radiation (no direct contact) is what causes the skin to burn.
Radiation: Microwave cooking food
- Microwaves use radiation to heat the food inside of it; between radio waves and infrared radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum
Conduction: Touching a hot car seat in the summer
- Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact (hand to seat).
Conduction: Burning yourself with a curling iron (Similar to above; direct contact).
Convection: An ocean breeze
- Convection near coastlines cause the transfer of energy; water warms and cools slower than land.
Conduction: Sliding down a hot metal slide in august
- You are in direct contact with the slide, which is hot due to the temperature.
Convection: Water in a boiling pot of macaroni
- The water, a liquid, is being heated by molecular motion.
Convection: Currents deep within the earth that cause tectonic plates to move
- Convection currents drive the movement of tectonic plates in the mantle, which is fluid/molten. The currents circulate under the asthenosphere.
Explanation:
Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over time.
When there is an increment or increase in the magnitude of velocity of a moving body then it is known as positive acceleration.
Whereas when there is a decrease in magnitude of velocity of a moving body then it is known as negative acceleration.
Thus, we can conclude that positive acceleration occurs when an object speeds up.
A wave looses its power as it comes to shore because it gets less deeper every second it gets closer to shore
Answer:
The Kinetic Energy decreases. The Total Energy stays the same
Explanation:
The TE stays the same, so if PE increases then KE will decrease.
I think WA in friction means Water Absorption.
