Which one of the following statements best explains why convection does not occur in solids? A. The molecules in a solid are not free to move throughout the volume of the solid. B. Molecules in a solid vibrate at a lower frequency than those in a liquid. ...

but sound can also travel through solids and liquids. Therefore, flesh and bone can function as a speaker, because particles in a solid can vibrate too. In fact, solids transmit sound faster than air and water, because the particles in a solid ...
Groups of flux tubes can even have solid and liquid phases, in analogy to regular (actual) matter. One of the more commonly seen quasi-particles is the “electron hole”, which is just a notably absent electron. The tiles are real things, but the vacant square is just...
The microwave in your kitchen contains a magnetron similar to the one Spencer was working with, which directs microwaves at your food, making the water particles vibrate. This generates friction, which cooks the food quickly and with little fuss. Today, more than 90% of homes in the U.S....
When you use the string phone, your voice makes the air particles in the cup start to vibrate. These vibrations then make the bottom of the cup vibrate, and make the string move in the same way. ... When the string is loose, it can't vibrate nearly as well, which means sound can...
A mechanical wave is transverse when all the particles of the medium, which are solid or liquid (and never gas), vibrate perpendicularly at right angles, up and down, and continue to move in the direction of the wave. For example, the ripples on the surface of a lake are transverse wave...
A flute is an open pipe filled with air. Blow across the top in just the right way and you make it vibrate at a specific musical pitch (called its resonant frequency), generating a sound you can hear that corresponds directly to the length of the pipe....
In a Nutshell :(Incandescent) Light bulbs light up because electrons have to squeeze through their narrow filament, forcing them to bash into the atoms of the filament, which makes them vibrate and give off heat and light. OR if you mean the newer more efficient LED Bulbs … ...
Homeopathy is an obsolete method that used all sorts of substances in the misguided hope to relieve symptoms. The word derives from the Greek wordshomeo, meaning “similar,” andpathos, meaning “suffering” (such as the pathology of a disease). Homeopathy was alleged to operate on a “like...
