Pressure = total force/total area

Total force = 660 Newton's

Total area:

Each leg contacts the floor with an area of πr^2=π(0.025m)^2=0.002m^2.

Total contact area for all 3 legs = 0.006 m^2.

Pressure = (660N) / (0.006 m^2)

= 110,000 N/m^2 = 110,000 Pascal's.

When turning a magnet very quickly would be BEST used to create A) radiation. B) light waves. C) an electric current. D) a conve
Gre4nikov [31]

the correct choice is

C) an electric current.

as a magnet is turned quickly relative to a coil, the magnetic flux linked with coil varies due to variation of angle of direction of magnetic field with normal to the plane of coil. the coil resist this change of magnetic flux in it by inducing emf in it so as to nullify the variation in magnetic flux. Due to this induced emf , electric current flows through the coil.

A steam engine takes in superheated steam at 270 °C and discharges condensed steam from its cylinder at 50 °C. The engine has an
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

b) 20 kJ

Explanation:

Efficiency of carnot engine = (T₁ - T₂ ) / T₁  Where T₁ is temperature of hot source  and T₂ is temperature of sink .

T₁ = 270 + 273 = 543K

T₂ = 50 + 273 = 323 K

Putting the given values of temperatures

efficiency = (543 - 323) / 543

= .405

heat input = 50 KJ

efficiency = output work / input heat energy

.405 = output work / 50

output work = 20.25 KJ.

= 20 KJ .
