When boiling water in a can then dipping can into cold water why does the can shrivel up?

Most all items swell somewhat with heat applied. Water does so dramatically. So when a full and sealed container cools, the water retracts in size accordingly. This changes the pressure within the container, so the pressure on the outside is greater and causes it to collapse


How does convection effect boiling water?

Water convection is the movement of water in a circular motion due to cooling and heating. The water near the bottom of the container is heated and moves up the container, while water at the top of the container is cooled and moves down the container. Convection causes movement of the water.
