DaniilM [7]3 years ago

An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. The magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off. Electromagnets usually consist of a large number of closely spaced turns of wire that create the magnetic field. The wire turns are often wound around a magnetic core made from a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material such as iron; the magnetic core concentrates the magnetic flux and makes a more powerful magnet.

The main advantage of an electromagnet over a permanent magnet is that the magnetic field can be quickly changed by controlling the amount of electric current in the winding. However, unlike a permanent magnet that needs no power, an electromagnet requires a continuous supply of current to maintain the magnetic field.

Electromagnets are widely used as components of other electrical devices, such as motors, generators, relays, loudspeakers, hard disks,MRI machines, scientific instruments, and magnetic separation equipment. Electromagnets are also employed in industry for picking up and moving heavy iron objects such as scrap iron and steel

What is the calculation for elastic potential?
grin007 [14]
Elastic potential energy is equal to the force times the distance of movement. Elastic potential energy = force x distance of displacement. Because the force is = spring constant x displacement, then the Elastic potential energy = spring constant x displacement squared.

Indicate whether each of the following statements is true or false. In a coal-fired power plant, chemical energy is first conver
denis23 [38]

Answer:

1. In a coal-fired power plant, chemical energy is first converted to thermal energy. TRUE.

The chemical energy in the coal is converted to thermal energy when the coal is burnt to produce steam.

2. In a coal-fired power plant, approximately 2/5 of original energy in the coal is lost to heat. FALSE.

Approximately 3/5 of the original energy is lost not 2/5 so this statement is false.

3. The molecules in cold air move faster than in hot air. FALSE.

Molecules with more heat move faster than molecules with less. Molecules in cold air therefore, will move slower than molecules in hot air.

If 35 J of work was performed in 70 seconds, how much power was used to do this task?
Irina18 [472]
P = w \times delta \: T
P = Power
W = Work
Delta T = Change of Time

So:
P = 35 Joules
Delta T = 70 secs
W = ?

P = 35 \div 70 \\ P = 0.5 \: watts

* Joule/Sec = Watt

Answer: The power used to do this task was 0.5 Watts.
