Q.Air???????????????Related Search:

 What is the weight of the air ?
A.Air has mass, therefore, air has weight. Mass and weight are dependent solely on the amount of the substance being measured. The more of the substance, the more mass and the higher the weight. You did not specify an amount of air, just "the" air. Did you mean all of the air on Earth? Dry air has a density of 1.2 kg/m^3 at 20 degrees C and 1 atm of pressure. In order to find the overall mass of the air, multiply the density by the volume of air in question. To find the weight of the air, multiply the mass by the gravitational acceleration experienced by air (9.81 m/s^2 on the surface of Earth).

Q.What type of air movement should you expect under those conditions?Related Search:
Other - Science
 Conditions: If you are sitting on a beach on a warm summer day, you might see the bright sunlight striking the beach and the ocean near the shore. What type of air movement should you expect under those conditions? A. cooler air blowing from the ocean and pushing warm air over land and upward. B. movement back and forth equally between land and ocean. C. movement of air from the land out over the ocean. D. warmer air blowing from the ocean and pushing cool air over the land and upward.
A.The air over the ocean will be cooler and gaining mass since water is evaporating into it, so you will have a cool breeze heading into the land from the ocean, pushing the warmer air upward and perhaps causing precipitation.
  

Q.How do hot - air balloons work?Related Search:
Aircraft
 Which of these explanations are correct: 1.The balloon acts like a green house, letting the heat from the sun warm the air inside. 2.The burner heats the air inside and the particles move apart , so the air inside is less dense than the cold air outside. 3.The burner heats the balloon fabric which expands, making the volume inside bigger so the air inside is less dense. 4.The air outside gets cooler in the evening, so the balloon rises up. Can u just tell me the number?
A.No.2. The air inside gets hotter, so it rises, and takes the basket along with the balloon. Up and away!
  

Q.the difference between air conditioning and air conditioner?Related Search:
Words & Wordplay
 Could you please tell me the difference between air conditioning and air conditioner? I knew that we can say that "this car comes with an air conditioning" . How about the following sentence: Does your apartment has an air conditioning /conditioner? Does this building has an central air conditioning system?
A.As others have said, an air conditioner is the machine, air conditioning is the result. Note that the machine is an object, therefore countable--you need "an". "Air conditioning" is intangible, therefore non-countable--no "an". >>I knew that we can say that "this car comes with an air conditioning" . You would say just "comes with air conditioning" or "an air conditioning system". >>Does your apartment has an air conditioning /conditioner? (With a question using "do", don't conjugate the main verb) You can say "Does your apartment have air conditioning?" or "Does your apartment have an air conditioner?" >>Does this building has an central air conditioning system? Again, "have" not "has", and it's "a" rather than "an" ("an" only goes right before a vowel sound), but otherwise perfect. "System" is countable.

A.YOUR VEHICLE IS NOT EQUIP WITH THIS TYPE OF AIR FILTER.
  

Q.What happens if air is injected into the body?Related Search:
Respiratory Diseases
 I inject vaccine into my dad's upper arm daily. My dad is a terminal lung and kidney cancer patient. Yesterday, he had an emergency because of shortness of breath. Usually he could breathe normally without the oxygen supply for about 5 minutes. Now, he feels exhausted without the supply even if it's for a short while. Is it possibly because I injected some air when I injected the vaccine? I know that there's usually a bit of air in the syringe when I draw out the vaccine from its bottle. I would stop injecting right before the bubble enters. Does the air still enter although I stop before right before the bubble enters? How to avoid injecting air into the body? And what ARE the effects of air being injected? I inject right under his skin on his upper arm.
A.First of all an air bubble will not kill you. It would need to be injected directly into an artery or vein. The best way to avoid air in the syringe is to first pull the plunger back to the amount of medicine you are going to withdraw. Then put the needle into the med bottle, push the plunger in to put the air in the med bottle. This will displace the med you are going to draw out, making it easier to get the correct amount of medicine into the syringe. This will keep you from getting too much air in the syringe. A tiny bit of air is needed to "seal" the medicine in when you give an intramuscular injection. As you inject the medicine, the tiny air pocket will go in last. Hope this helps.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary:

Air
   the atmosphere, as opposed to the higher regions of the sky (1
   Thess. 4:17; Rev. 9:2; 16:17). This word occurs once as the
   rendering of the Hebrew _ruah_ (Job 41:16); elsewhere it is the
   rendering of _shamaiyim_, usually translated "heavens."
   
     The expression "to speak into the air" (1 Cor. 14:9) is a
   proverb denoting to speak in vain, as to "beat the air" (1 Cor.
   9:26) denotes to labour in vain.
   


From THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY ((C)1911 Released April 15 1993):

AIR, n.  A nutritious substance supplied by a bountiful Providence for
the fattening of the poor.
