Answer: magnetic substances

Explanation:

The magnetic field of Earth and several other planets are produced by magnetic substances such as Iron and nickel present in the molten form in their core. With their motion, the domains of the magnetic material align in a single direction generating huge magnetic field.

The magnetic field helps protect from high speed solar particles and helps in navigation. Auroras are caused due to magnetic fields. Auroras can be seen of Earth, Saturn, Jupiter indicating that these planets have magnetic fields.

A goose with a mass of 2.0 kg strikes a commercial airliner with a mass of 160,000 kg head-on. Before the collision, the goose w
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of goose, m₁ = 2.0 kg

mass of commercial airliner, m₂ = 160,000 kg

initial velocity of the bird, u₁ = 60 km/hr  = 16.667 m/s

initial velocity of the airliner, u₂ = 870 km/hr = 241.667 m/s

Change in momentum is given as;

ΔP = mv - mu

where;

u is the initial velocity of the bird

v is the final velocity of the bird

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final velocity of bird and airliner after collision;

(2 x 16.667) + (160,000 x 241.667) = v (2 + 160,000)

38,666,753.334 = 160,002v

v = 38,666,753.334 / 160,002

v = 241.664 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the bird is negligible compared to final  velocity of the airliner.

ΔP = mv - mu

ΔP = m(v - u)

ΔP = 2(0 - 16.667)

ΔP = -33.334 m/s

The negative sign implies a deceleration of the bird after the impact.

Therefore, the change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

A sinusoidal traveling wave is generated on a string by an oscillating source that completes 116 cycles per minute. What is the
slava [35]

Answer:

\lambda =6.32\ cm

Explanation:

given,

number of cycle complete (f) = 116 cycles per minute

wavelength observed at 11 m in 1.5 m.

v = \dfrac{distance}{time}

v = \dfrac{11}{1.5}

v = 7.33 m/s

\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda = \dfrac{7.33}{116}

\lambda =0.0632\ m

\lambda =6.32\ cm

The wavelength of the wave is equal to \lambda =6.32\ cm

What is the process that changes smaller atoms into larger ones in a star
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Nuclear fusion

Explanation:

In fusion, many nuclei (the centers of atoms) combine together to make a larger one (which is a different element). ... A star's mass determines what other type of nucleosynthesis occurs in its core (or during explosive changes in its life cycle).

3. A concrete highway is built of slabs 12 m long (20o C). How wide should the expansion cracks between the slabs be (at 20o C)
lesantik [10]

Answer:

\Delta x=2.304\times 10^{-2}\ m=2.304\ cm is the minimum gap between the slabs

Explanation:

Given:

  • length of the concrete highway, l=12\ m
  • coefficient of thermal expansion, \alpha=12\times 10^{-6}\ ^{\circ}C^{-1}
  • range of temperature variation, (-30^{\circ}C\ to\ 50^{\circ}C) \Rightarrow \Delta T=80^{\circ}C

<u>Now form the equation of thermal expansion:</u>

\Delta l=l\times \alpha\times \Delta T

\Delta l=12\times (12\times 10^{-6})\times 80

\Delta l=1.152\times 10^{-2}\ m

Since each slab of the highway expands by the above length so the minimum gap between the slabs to prevent buckling:

\Delta x=2\times \Delta l

\Delta x=2\times( 1.152\times 10^{-2})

\Delta x=2.304\times 10^{-2}\ m=2.304\ cm is the minimum gap between the slabs
