When you rotate the collar of the Bunsen burner what is the effect of that to the air holes?
depends on the direction you turn the collar. You may cause the air holes to enlarge and let more air into the barrel of the burner. Or you could be making the holes smaller and actually cut off the air supply making the burner less effective, burning at a lower temp because of the lack of oxygen.

Why does a paper snake spin when held over a Bunsen burner?
The spinning motion of the paper snake when held over a Bunsen burner is due to convection currents created by the heat rising from the flame. As the air above the flame gets hot, it rises creating a low-pressure area that causes the paper snake to rotate. This is a demonstration of the principle of convection.
What is a Bunsen burner and its parts and how is it used?
From Wikipedia (see Link to the left):A Bunsen burner is a device used in scientific laboratories for heating, sterilization, and many other uses.The device safely burns a continuous stream of a flammable gas such as natural gas (which is principally methane) or a liquified petroleum gas such as propane, butane, or a mixture of both.From ScienceByJones.com (see Link to the left):The Bunsen burner is used frequently in the laboratory as a source of heat. This burner is designed so that gaseous fuel may be mixed with the correct amount of air to yield the maximum amount of heat. In order to use this burner properly and safely, it is essential that you understand its construction and the adjustments that can be made.The three principal parts of the burner are: barrel, needle valve, and base. The quantity of gas admitted to the burner is controlled by the needle valve, while the air needed for combustion is admitted at the small opening around the bottom of the barrel. The air is controlled by turning the barrel so as to make the air holes larger or smaller.Always open the desk outlet valve fully and regulate the gas supply to the burner by the needle valve. Always extinguish your burner by turning off the desk outlet valve (and then closing the needle valve and barrel.) If there is an accident always shut off the desk outlet valve immediately.STEPS TO LIGHT BUNSEN BURNER:1. Check connections to burner and desk outlet valve.2. Close needle valve and barrel.3. Open desk outlet valve fully.4. Check for leaks with flame.5. While holding flame above barrel, open needle valve 1/2 turn.6. Adjust barrel and needle valve for blue in blue flame.Always light burner in open space on lab counter. After you have adjusted it for the flame needed move it into position. One person in lab group is always responsible for maintaining the burner and flame.Burner Procedure:1. Light the burner according to our rules. Observe the yellow flame which is produced because not enough air is admitted to give complete combustion. The yellow color is caused by small particles of unburned carbon which become incandescent.2. Now rotate the barrel until the flame is entirely blue. Two different zones should appear when the burner is correctly adjusted. Too much air should not be admitted as it may cool the flame or blow it out entirely. After having the teacher confirm a good hot, blue flame draw a diagram of the flame (use labels and descriptions). Indicate on your diagram of the flame where the hottest part of the flame is located.See the Web Links to the left for more information.Bunsen burner barrels can be rotated, either opening or closing the barrel, to adjust the flow of air or oxygen, thereby controlling the flame.
The way Earth's rotation makes wind curve is called what?
It's called the 'Coriolis effect'. In the northern hemisphere, they rotate clockwise. South of the equator, they rotate counter-clockwise.
How do you heat a test tube with a Bunsen burner?
To heat a test tube with a Bunsen burner, adjust the air hole to provide a blue flame, and place the test tube at a 45-degree angle in the flame. Rotate the test tube slowly to ensure even heating. Remember to wear appropriate safety gear, such as goggles and heat-resistant gloves.
Which way does mid-latitude cyclone rotate?
Cyclones, mid-latitude and otherwise, in the Northern hemisphere rotate anti-clockwise, and cyclones south of the equator rotate clockwise.
Why is a paper spiral held above a Bunsen burner turn?
The paper spiral is turning due to convection currents created by the heat from the Bunsen burner. As the air surrounding the spiral heats up, it becomes less dense and rises. This rising hot air creates a flow pattern that causes the spiral to rotate.

How do you rotate a video clip?
If you have Windows Movie Maker 2.6 (I think) or older, then upload your video and go to "video effects." When you scroll down, there are options like "rotate 90," "rotate 180," and "rotate 270."
Does the Coriolis effect make a tornado start to rotate?
No. Tornadoes are too small for the Coriolis effect to influence them.
The way Earth's rotation makes wind curve is called what?
It's called the 'Coriolis effect'. In the northern hemisphere, they rotate clockwise. South of the equator, they rotate counter-clockwise.
What is the rotary effect of the force called when a force causes a structure to rotate?
The rotary effect of a force causing a structure to rotate is called torque. Torque is the measure of the force causing the object to rotate around an axis. It is influenced by both the magnitude of the force and the distance from the axis of rotation.
Do typhoons rotate clockwise?
In the northern hemisphere, typhoons rotate counter-clockwise. In the southern they rotate clockwise. This is due to the force of the rotation of the Earth.
How do you heat a test tube with a Bunsen burner?
To heat a test tube with a Bunsen burner, adjust the air hole to provide a blue flame, and place the test tube at a 45-degree angle in the flame. Rotate the test tube slowly to ensure even heating. Remember to wear appropriate safety gear, such as goggles and heat-resistant gloves.
Do hurricanes rotate different directions depending on which hemisphere they are in?
Yes, hurricanes in the Northern Hemisphere rotate counterclockwise, while hurricanes in the Southern Hemisphere rotate clockwise due to the Coriolis effect. This effect is caused by the Earth's rotation and influences the direction of movement of large-scale systems like hurricanes.
Do tornadoes rotate counterclockwise?
Most tornadoes (about 99%) in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise. But most in the southern hemisphere rotate clockwise.
How does the sun's gravitational pull effect the planets?
By causing them to rotate around the sun
