Earth's atmosphere blocks many types of light including gamma, x-rays most ultraviolet and infrared. So optical telescopes that use visible light and ultraviolet telescopes that are used to study very hot stars are much less effective on Earth.
Answer:
140m east
Explanation:
If East is positive then lets rephrase the problem into integers
A truck moves +70 m, then moves -120m, and finally moves +90m.
So totally Displacement = +70-120+90= +140m
Since east is positive, the trucks resultant displacement is 140 m east of origin
Answer:
Answer: It takes 5,730 years for half the carbon-14 to change to nitrogen; this is the half-life of carbon-14. After another 5,730 years only one-quarter of the original carbon-14 will remain
Answer:
220 A
Explanation:
The magnetic force on the floating rod due to the rod held close to the ground is F = BI₁L where B = magnetic field due to rod held close the ground = μ₀I₂/2πd where μ₀ = permeability of free space = 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m, I₂ = current in rod close to ground and d = distance between both rods = 11 mm = 0.011 m. Also, I₁ = current in floating rod and L = length of rod = 1.1 m.
So, F = BI₁L
F = (μ₀I₂/2πd)I₁L
F = μ₀I₁I₂L/2πd
Given that the current in the rods are the same, I₁ = I₂ = I
So,
F = μ₀I²L/2πd
Now, the magnetic force on the floating rod equals its weight , W = mg where m = mass of rod = 0.10kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
So, F = W
μ₀I²L/2πd = mg
making I subject of the formula, we have
I² = 2πdmg/μ₀L
I = √(2πdmg/μ₀L)
substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
I = √(2π × 0.011 m × 0.1 kg × 9.8 m/s²/[4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m × 1.1 m])
I = √(0.01078 kgm²/s²/[2 × 10⁻⁷ H/m × 1.1 m])
I = √(0.01078 kgm²/s²/[2.2 × 10⁻⁷ H])
I = √(0.0049 × 10⁷kgm²/s²H)
I = √(0.049 × 10⁶kgm²/s²H)
I = 0.22 × 10³ A
I = 220 A
