Will the positioning of your Slinky along the east-west, north-south, or some other orientation affect your readings? Why?

Physics

Oxana [17]2 years ago

Positioning your Slinky along any direction different from its initial position will affect your reading, because there will be change in the magnetic field.

<h3>Effect of magnet on Slinky</h3>

If the Slinky is made of an iron alloy, it can be magnetized by itself. Moving the Slinky around can cause a change in the magnetic field, even if no current is flowing.

When there is a change in the magnetic field, the reading changes.

At any point, you change the orientation of the Slinky, you will need to zero the reading or adjust the Slinky back to its initial position, even if the sensor does not move.

Thus, Positioning your Slinky along any direction that is different to its initial position will affect your reading because there will be change in the magnetic field.

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer: 20 kgm/s

Explanation:

Given that M1 = M2 = 10kg

V1 = 5 m/s , V2 = 3 m/s

Since momentum is a vector quantity, the direction of the two object will be taken into consideration.

The magnitude of their combined

momentum before the crash will be:

M1V1 - M2V2

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

10 × 5 - 10 × 3

50 - 30

20 kgm/s

Therefore, the magnitude of their combined momentum before the crash will be 20 kgm/s

The largest watermelon ever grown had a mass of 118 kg. Suppose this watermelon were exhibited on a platform 5.00 m above the gr
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: height = 3.98m

Explanation: by placing the watermelon at a height above the ground, it has a potential energy of the formulae

p = mgh

p = potential energy = 4.61kJ = 4610J

m = mass of watermelon = 118 kg

g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²

4610 = 118 * 9.8 * h

h = 4610/ 118 * 9.8

h = 4610/ 1156.4

h = 3.98m

What happened as the mass of the sun increased during formation of the solor system
sveta [45]

Answer:

Formation. Our solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust. ... When this dust cloud collapsed, it formed a solar nebula—a spinning, swirling disk of material. At the center, gravity pulled more and more material in.

MissTica

Answer:

Visible Light and Radio waves

Explanation:

The earth's atmosphere is transparent to a few windows in the electromagnetic spectrum. it is completely transparent to allow observation from the ground in visible light rang 380 to 740 nano meters. Also in the range of radio wave as communication are done from space to ground in the form of radio waves.

it is Partially transparent to Microwave and infrared range.
