Answer: The force of repulsion increases.

Explanation:

The same poles repel each other and the opposite poles attract each other.

Force of repulsion: The force by which the bodies repel each other.

In the same poles case, there is a force of repulsion. In the opposite poles case, there is a force of attraction.

In the given problem, two magnetic poles that repel one another are held three inches apart.

The magnetic force follows inverse square law with distance. The force of repulsion is inversely proportional to the square to the distance between the same poles of the two magnets.

When the poles are moved closer together, to a distance of one inch apart then the force of repulsion increases.

Because of the magnets are actually electromagnetics aka what causes them to repel each other the atoms and the electrons will make a force of them pushing away from each other because the two magnetic poles are not north and south

A rectangular block floats in pure water with 0.400 in. above the surface and 1.60 in. below the surface. When placed in an aque
labwork [276]

Answer:

specific gravity = 0.8

specific gravity of  solution  = 2

Explanation:

given data

rectangular block above water  = 0.400 in

rectangular block below water = 1.60 in

material floats below water = 0.800 in

solution

first we get here specific gravity of block  that is

specific gravity = block vol below ÷ total block vol × specific gravity  water   ..............1

put here value we get

specific gravity =  \frac{1.60}{1.60+0.400}  × 1

specific gravity = 0.8

and now we get here specific gravity of  solution  that is express as

specific gravity of  solution  = total block vol ÷ block vol below × specific gravity  block   ........................2

put here value we get

specific gravity of  solution  = \frac{1.60+0.400}{0.800} × 0.8

specific gravity of  solution  = 2

An object has a mass of 0.250 kg. What is the gravitational force of on the object by the earth?
sesenic [268]

Answer:

2.4525 N

Explanation:

The earths gravity is 9.81 N/Kg

And so to work this out you would multiply 9.81 by 0.250 which equals to 2.4525N

What does Newton’s second law predict about the acceleration if the net force acting on an object increases?
Lorico [155]
The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

Explain how we measure temperatures in our daily lives.
AnnyKZ [126]

Many devices have been invented to accurately measure temperature. It all started with the establishment of a temperature scale. This scale transformed the measurement of temperature into meaningful numbers.

In the early years of the eighteenth century, Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736) created the Fahrenheit scale. He set the freezing point of water at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees. These two points formed the anchors for his scale.


Later in that century, around 1743, Anders Celsius (1701-1744) invented the Celsius scale. Using the same anchor points, he determined the freezing temperature for water to be 0 degree and the boiling temperature 100 degrees. The Celsius scale is known as a Universal System Unit. It is used throughout science and in most countries.


There is a limit to how cold something can be. The Kelvin scale is designed to go to zero at this minimum temperature. The relationships between the different temperature scales are:



oK = 273.15 + oC        oC = (5/9)*(oF-32)        oF = (9/5)*oC+32


 oF oC oK

Water boils 212 100 373

Room Temperature 72 23 296

Water Freezes 32 0 273

Absolute Zero -460 -273 0

At a temperature of Absolute Zero there is no motion and no heat. Absolute zero is where all atomic and molecular motion stops and is the lowest temperature possible. Absolute Zero occurs at 0 degrees Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius or at -460 degrees Fahrenheit. All objects emit thermal energy or heat unless they have a temperature of absolute zero.


If we want to understand what temperature means on the molecular level, we should remember that temperature is the average energy of the molecules that composes a substance. The atoms and molecules in a substance do not always travel at the same speed. This means that there is a range of energy (the energy of motion) among the molecules. In a gas, for example, the molecules are traveling in random directions at a variety of speeds - some are fast and some are slow. Sometimes these molecules collide with each other. When this happens the higher speed molecule transfers some of its energy to the slower molecule causing the slower molecule to speed up and the faster molecule to slow down. If more energy is put into the system, the average speed of the molecules will increase and more thermal energy or heat will be produced. So, higher temperatures mean a substance has higher average molecular motion. We do not feel or detect a bunch of different temperatures for each molecule which has a different speed. What we measure as the temperature is always related to the average speed of the molecules in a system
