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.

Voices of swimmers at a pool travel 400 m/s through the air and 1,600 m/s underwater. The wavelength changes from 2 m in the air
Nata [24]

The frequency of a sound is whatever frequency leaves the source. It doesn't change.

Voiced of swimmers at the pool don't change frequency in or out of the water. Only their speed and wavelength change.

A 1.0 kg object moving at 4.5 m/s has a wavelength of:
Lisa [10]
By wave particle  duality.

Wavelength , λ = h / mv

where h = Planck's constant = 6.63 * 10⁻³⁴ Js,  m = mass in kg,  v = velocity in m/s.
m = 1kg,  v = 4.5 m/s

λ = h / mv

λ = (6.63 * 10⁻³⁴) /(1*4.5)

λ ≈  1.473 * 10⁻³⁴  m

Option D.

A bobsled is pushed with a force of 190.08 N. The sled has a mass of 28 kg. What is the acceleration of the bobsled? Report to t
Usimov [2.4K]
By definition it is known that force equals mass by acceleration. In other words F = m * a. To find the acceleration, you must clear the formula mentioned. Therefore, for a force of 190.08N and a mass of 28 Kg, we have that the acceleration is a = F / m = (190.08) / (28) = 6.79 m / s ^ 2

Given equal time periods, which statement is correct?
Mekhanik [1.2K]
The correct option is B.
Nuclear fission and fusion are two different types of nuclear reactions, through which energy may be obtained. Nuclear fission involves the splitting of a molecule into two different part in order to generate energy while nuclear fusion reaction involves the joining together of two elements in other to form one product. Nuclear fission generate much radioactive waste than nuclear fusion. The radioactive waste that is obtainable during nuclear fusion is less than 1% of that produce by nuclear fission.
