How do the positions of the hot and cold water affect the speed of convection
Aleks [24]

Convection is the process in which heat is transferred by movement of a heated fluid such as air or water. Natural convection results from the tendency of most fluids to expand when heated so it becomes less dense and rise above.  

For example- In a pot of water on a stove the liquid t bottom is heated by conduction. The hot water has lower density and it rises above pushing the cold water downwards so it gets heated.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

F=7.7\times10^2 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of force required to pull the lid off the box by air pressure.

We know that Pressure, P= Force(F)/Area(A)

Force, F= P×A

Given: A=1.10\times10^{-2} m^2

P=7\times10^{4} Pa.

Therefore, F=7\times10^{4}\times1.10\times10^{-2}.

F=7.7\times10^2 N
