Answer: Magnetic field reverses.

Explanation:

The magnetic field of the Earth is generated due to the presence of iron and other magnetic materials in molten form in the outer core of the Earth. History suggests that the magnetic field of the Earth was in a reversed states during stone age. And it might happen in future. The domains realign as the Earth is continuously in motion. When the reversed domains dominate, magnetic field reversal occurs.

The distance between an object and its image formed by a diverging lens is 5.80 cm. The focal length of the lens is -2.60 cm. Fi
pentagon [3]

Answer:

a) 1.55 cm

b) 4.25 cm

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between an object and the image = 5.80 cm

Focal length of the lens, f = -2.60 cm

let the image distance be 'v' and the object distance be 'u'

thus,

u + v = 5.80 cm

or

u = 5.80 - v

from the lens formula, we have

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}

on substituting the values, we have

\frac{1}{-2.60}=\frac{1}{5.80-v}+\frac{1}{v}

on rearranging, we get

-3.84 × (v × (5.80 - v)) = v + 5.80 - v

or

-2.23v + 3.84v² = 5.80

or

3.84v² - 2.23v - 5.80 = 0

on solving the quadratic equation, we get

v = 1.55 cm

and u = 5.80 - 1.55 = 4.25 cm

hence,

a) 1.55 cm

b) 4.25 cm

In a heat engine if 1000 j of heat enters the system the piston does 500 j of work, what is the final internal energy of the sys
son4ous [18]

Answer:

2500 J

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U =U_f - U_i =Q-W

where

Uf is the final internal energy of the system

Ui is the initial internal energy

Q is the heat added to the system

W is the work done by the system

In this problem, we have:

Q = +1000 J (heat that enters the system)

W = +500 J (work done by the system)

Ui = 2000 J (initial internal energy)

Using these numbers, we can re-arrange the equation to calculate the final internal energy:

U_f = U_i + Q-W=2000 J+1000 J-500 J=2500 J

If the absolute temperature of a gas is 600 K, the temperature in degrees Celsius is: A. 705°C. B. 873°C. C. 273°C. D. 327°C
zlopas [31]

Answer:

D). 327 ^0 C

Explanation:

As we know that temperature scale is linear so we will have

\frac{^0C - 0}{100 - 0} = \frac{K - 273}{373 - 273}

now we have

\frac{^0 C - 0}{100} = \frac{K - 273}{100}

so the relation between two scales is given as

^0 C = K - 273

now we know that in kelvin scale the absolute temperature is 600 K

so now we have

T = 600 - 273 = 327 ^0 C

so correct answer is

D). 327 ^0 C
