Why do convection currents stop us from being suffocated while sleeping?
Convection currents stop us from being suffocated when we are asleep in bed. Why?
What to do if your being suffocated?
If you thing you are being suffocated reach for help. Go in well ventilated area to get some fresh air. If dealing with harmful chemicals read the label first to avoid inhaling fumes and to prevent yourself from getting suffocated.
Can a person run out of air?
Yes if your being suffocated :)
What is the circular movement of cool air rising and warm air sinking?
Convection! I know this was on your science ws cause it was on mine too :)
Why is there no convection current when the liquid in the test tube is heated at the top?
because convection currents are caused by the liquid being heated, becoming less dense due to increased kinetic energy and rising. if you are heating the top of the test tube, there is nowhere for them to 'rise' to, so no current is formed, as they do not reach a place where they cool and sink to the bottom. thus convection currents are only formed when heating the bottom of a test tube.
Why cant you fall asleep after being unconscious?
If you fall asleep , you can lapse into a coma.
What is the difference between falling asleep and being put to sleep?
Falling asleep: voluntary Being put to sleep: involuntary
What sentence can you make with the word asleep on the job?
He was fired for being found asleep on the job.
Does heat from the sun travel through space by convection?
For convection current we need a material medium. But in between sun and earth there is almost vacuum. So heat transfer is mainly due to phenomenon of radiation. That too electromagnetic waves are being propagated right from the sun and stars.
What is the liquid in the pot is being heated by?
Convection currents from the stove or microwave.
What are convenction current and what do they cause?
Convection currents are caused by uneven heating of bodies of water/air, resulting in a current as hotter air/water rises, and cooler air/water sinks. For example on a stove-top, when boiling water, the water at the bottom will warm first, being closest to the fire. Rising to the top, it will cool and sink to the bottom, creating a current. That is why covering a pot is more efficient- when the hot water rises to the top due to a convection current, it cannot lose as much heat.
What is the contrary concept of asleep?
The contrary concept of asleep is awake. It refers to the state of being conscious and alert, as opposed to being unconscious and in a state of rest.
