Imagine being at the beach in this photo on a sunny summer afternoon.
Describe the temperatures you would expect if you measured the surface of the beach and at a depth of 12 inches in the sand.
If you stood waist deep in the water and measured the water’s surface temperature and its temperature at a depth of 12 inches, how would these measurements compare to those taken on the beach?
Nala heated an iron rod for 20 minutes and the length increased from 200 mm to 210 mm. Then he took a thicker iron rod of 200 mm and heated it for 20 minutes also. Would the length of this rod after heating be less than, equal to, or more than 210 mm? Explain your answer.
What is the difference between conduction and convection? (Choose TRUE or FALSE for each statement)a) Conduction occurs due to temperature gradient, while convection exists subjected to the both temperature and density differences.b) Conduction depends on the vibrated atoms in the medium, while convection depends on the atom separation in the medium.c)Conduction involves heat is transferred in one direction, while heat is circulated with convection
