In nature, hot air tends to rise and cool air tends to sink. This is behind the concept of convection heating that is used in ovens. Convection currents occur only in fluids such as liquids and gases but not in solids.

Which of the examples below is an example of convection?
A) rubbing your hands together.
B) heating a fish tank.
C) basking in the sun.
D) striking a match.

What are two different ways you could find the value of a? explain these methods.

Astudent throws a water balloon with speed v0 from a height h = 1.76 m at an angle θ = 21° above the horizontal toward a target on the ground. the target is located a horizontal distance d = 9.5 m from the student’s feet. assume that the balloon moves without air resistance. use a cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the balloon's initial position. (a) what is the position vector, rtarge t, that originates from the balloon's original position and terminates at the target? put this in terms of h and d, and represent it as a vector using i and j. (b) in terms of the variables in the problem, determine the time, t, after the launch it takes the balloon to reach the target. your answer should not include h. (c) create an expression for the balloon's vertical position as a function of time, y(t), in terms of t, vo, g, and θ. (d) determine the magnitude of the balloon's initial velocity, v0, in meters per second, by eliminating t from the previous two expressions.

If state law mandates that elevators cannot accelerate more than 2.40 m/s2 or travel faster than 14.8 m/s , what is the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor to the observatory floor? ?
