Boiling water in a pan is a good example of convection because the warm water rises and the cooler water sinks.

Answer : Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The process in which a liquid is heated to transfer thermal energy to the liquid in the form of heat is called as convection. For example, when water is boiled in a vessel at a certain temperature which is a good example of convection, the warm water rises and the cold water sinks because liquid above a hot surface expands and then the liquid rises.

Convection means that hotter and less dense fluids have a tendency to rise while colder and more dense fluids sink.

The answer would be (A)
Hot water is denser than cold water and so hot water will be above the cold water.

Masja [62]

As we know that

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_0} = \frac{1}{f}$

here we know that

$d_0 = 6 cm$

$f = 10 cm$

now from above equation we have

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{10}$

$d_i = -15 cm$

so image will form on left side of lens at a distance of 15 cm

This image will be magnified and virtual image

snow_tiger [21]

As we know that range of the projectile motion is given by

$R = \frac{v^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}$

here we know that range will be same for two different angles

so here we can say the two angle must be complementary angles

so the two angles must be

$\theta, 90 - \theta$

so it is given that one of the projection angle is 75 degree

so other angle for same range must be 90 - 75 = 15 degree

so other projection angle must be 15 degree

Answer:

The angular speed after 6s is $\omega = 1466.67s^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

The equation

$I\alpha = Fd$

relates the moment of inertia $I$ of a rigid body, and its angular acceleration $\alpha$ , with the force applied $F$ at a distance $d$ from the axis of rotation.

In our case, the force applied is $F = 22N$ , at a distance $d = 6cm =0.06m$ , to a ring with the moment of inertia of $I =mr^2$ ; therefore, the angular acceleration is
