By definition we know that the force is the vector product of the vector of the current by the length with the magnetic field vector. The current in this case goes in a positive "Y" direction. If we assume that the magnetic field goes in the positive "K" direction, then the result will be in the positive "X" direction. Attached solution.

Which process is an example of a physical change?

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Option A

Carrots are cut into small pieces and mixed into a salad

Explanation:

When physical changes occur, the actual composition remain the same but the molecules are re-arranged. Therefore, when carrots are cut into smaller pieces and mixed into salad, there will be no chemical reaction hence the actual composition will remain the same despite being cut and molecules in it re-arranged. Considering the other options, new substances are formed hence they are deemed as chemical changes. Therefore, option A is correct.

A 1,508 kg car rolling on a horizontal surface has a speed of 20.8 km/hr when it strikes a horizontal coiled spring and is broug

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Approximately $1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm N \cdot m^{-1}}$ , assuming friction between the vehicle and the ground is negligible.

Explanation:

Let $m$ denote the mass of the vehicle. Let $v$ denote the initial velocity of the vehicle. Let $k$ denote the spring constant (needs to be found.) Let $x$ denote the maximum displacement of the spring.

Convert velocity of the vehicle to standard units (meters per second):

$\begin{aligned}v &= 20.8\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}} \times \frac{1000\; {\rm m}}{1\; {\rm km}} \times \frac{1\; {\rm h}}{3600\; {\rm s}} \\ &\approx 1.908\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

Initial kinetic energy ( ${\rm KE}$ ) of the vehicle:

$\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\, m \, v^{2}\end{aligned}$ .

When the vehicle is brought to a rest, the elastic potential energy ( $\text{EPE}$ ) stored in the spring would be:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, k\, x^{2}$ .

By the conservation of energy, if the friction between the vehicle and the ground is negligible, the initial $\text{KE}$ of the vehicle should be equal to the ${\rm EPE}$ of the vehicle. In other words:

$\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\, m \, v^{2} &= \frac{1}{2}\, k\, x^{2}\end{aligned}$ .

Rearrange this equation to find an expression for $k$ , the spring constant:

$\begin{aligned}k &= \frac{m\, v }{x^{2}}\end{aligned}$ .

Substitute in the given values $m = 1508\; {\rm kg}$ , $v \approx 1.908\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ , and $x = 6.87\; {\rm m}$ :

$\begin{aligned}k &= \frac{m\, v }{x^{2}} \\ &\approx \frac{1508\; {\rm kg} \times 1.908\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}}{(6.87\; {\rm m})^{2}} \\ &\approx 1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-2} \cdot m^{-3}}\\ &\approx 1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm N \cdot m^{-1}}\end{aligned}$

An amateur astronomer grinds a double convex lens whose surfaces have radii of curvature of 40 cm and 60 cm. The glass has an in

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

44.4cm

Explanation:

glass has an index of refraction .n = 1.54

radii of curvature of 40 cm R1 = 40 by

radii of curvature of 600 cm R2 = 60

Now, by lens maker formula

1/f = (n - 1) (1/R1 - 1/R2)

Putting in the given values for n = 1.54 , we get f = 22.2

$\frac{1}{f} = (1.54 -1) (\frac{1}{40cm} -\frac{1}{(-60cm)} )$

$\frac{1}{f} = 0.0225$

f = 1 / 0.0225

f = 44.4cm

so, focal length in air will be = 44.4 cm
