Correct Answer: convection
Explanation:
Convection is by far the most efficient and common way for heat to be transferred through liquids and gases. It occurs when some regions of a fluid get hotter than others, causing currents in the fluid that move it around to distribute that heat more evenly.
Correct Answer: the distance travelled by a vehicle
Explanation:
The odometer or the odograph is an instrument used to indicate the distance travelled by the vehicle.
Correct Answer: Hooke's law
Explanation:
When you compress or stretch a spring, as soon as the stress is relieved, the spring attains its normal shape instantly. Its Elastic potential energy helps it do so. Generally, these elastic substances follow the Hooke?s law.
According to this Law, the force needed to change the shape of spring is proportional to the displacement of the spring. The displacement referred here is how far the spring is compressed or stretched from its normal shape. Mathematically, Hook?s Law can be summarised as F= ? k x. Here ?k? is the spring constant and ?x? is the displacement.
Correct Answer: Nearest peak to peak
Explanation:
Wavelength of a wave can be measured with the distance between two nearest crest and crest or nearest troughs. It is measured as armstrong units.
Correct Answer: All of the above
Explanation:
All of the factors that contribute to global winds are
1) Uneven warming of the earth by the sun
2) Coriolis Effect
3) Convection Cells
Correct Answer: Circular motion of electrons
Explanation:
Magnetism in materials is due to circular motion of electrons.
Correct Answer: Air Pressure
Explanation:
The temperature at which water boils depends mainly on air pressure.
Correct Answer: TRUE
Correct Answer: Igneous rock
Explanation:
It forms slow crystallization of magma below Earth's surface.Granite is a hard light-colored igneous rock and it is composed mainly of quartz and feldspar with minor amounts of mica, amphiboles and other minerals it is mainly used for building and monuments
Correct Answer: Gamma rays
Explanation:
Gamma rays has the shortest wavelength and radio waves has the longest wavelength.
