I wonder why fluids reduce solids friction?

slippery fluids , such as oil, reduce the friction and make it easier to slide this over each other. By Jaclynne

I wonder......Why Do Hot Fluids Rise?

2015-10-27 16:03:49 UTC

Hot fluids rise because when the fluid is heated, it's density becomes lighter than the density o the air around it, so it rises. By Kyley

I wonder why a fluids takes up space? Taylor

They are made out of matter. Fluids are substance that flow, they always take the shape of the container. Volume is always filling it's container entirely.

I wonder.. Why cold fluids sink

When cooled fluids they contract and become more dense. Chad

I wonder....why do hot fluids rise in convection?--Maddy

Hot air is less dense. after it has released heat at the top it is more dense. It is a continues cycle of rising and falling.

Q:Why are cold fluids unable to rise??

A: because

I wonder....why hot fluids don't rise into the air?

Because of gravity pulling the fluids down.

I wonder how long it takes lava to cool into rock?-Nathan

2015-10-27 16:08:07 UTC

Lava takes 10 -15 minutes to cool.But if the lava is very thick it may take longer

I Wonder... What is Convection?

2015-10-27 16:09:56 UTC

Movement in a gas or liquid in which the warmer parts move up and the colder parts move down; the transfer of heat by it's movement. ~ Joely

I wonder....why liquid vapor takes shape the of solids

papastesm — 2015-10-27 16:11:48 UTC

Vapor usually bends with air. Mack

I wonder... Why do fluids have no fixed shape? -Alyssa

2015-10-27 16:13:00 UTC

Fluids have no fixed shape because they flow and can fill to any container.

I wonder why do cold fluids sink?

2015-10-27 16:16:48 UTC

Any object or substance that is more dense than a fluid will sink in that fluid, so cold water sinks in warmer water.

I wonder why warm fluids rise... TEAGAN

2015-10-27 16:18:45 UTC

Any substance that is less dense than a fluid, will in fact float in that fluid. Hot water rises/floats in cold water. When fluids are cooled they contract and in doing that they become more dense. Any substance that is more dense than a fluid it will in fact sink in that fluid, so cold water sinks in warmer water.

I Wonder.... Why When Fluids Are Cooled They Sink?

I Wonder ... Why Cool Fluids Sink? Erika

2015-10-27 16:29:26 UTC

When fluids are cooled they become more dense. Any object or substance that is more dense than a fluid will sink.
