Because the electromagnets can pick up magnetic material and move it around, hope this helps

Answer:

To separate the magnetic substance from the scrap.

Explanation:

The electromagnets are the magnets which shows magnetic properties when the electric current pass through them.

The magnetic substances are attracted towards the electromagnet from the scrap.

We can increase or decrease the strength of electromagnet by increasing or decreasing the strength of electric current pass through it.

A series of pulses, each of amplitude 0.1m , is sent down a string that is attached to a post at one end. The pulses are reflect

sp2606 [1]

The net displacement at a point on the string where the pulses cross is 0.2 m.

The term "displacement" refers to a shift in an object's position. It has a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity. An arrow pointing from the starting point to the finishing point serves as its symbol.

A string that is connected to a post at one end is used to transmit a sequence of pulses, each measuring 0.1 meters in amplitude.

At the post, the pulses are reflected and return along the string without losing any of their amplitude.

Now, let's say the ends are free.

There is no inversion on reflection if the end is free. The amplitude at their intersection is 2A.

Now, since A = 0.1 m

Then, 2A = 2(0.1) = 0.2 m

As a result, the net displacement at the string's intersection of two pulses is 0.2 m.

The correct option is (c).

A 14.0 g wad of sticky clay is hurled horizontally at a 110 g wooden block initially at rest on a horizontal surface. The clay s

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

86.53 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of clay (m) = 14.0 g = 0.014 kg

Mass of block (M) = 110 g = 0.110 kg

Initial speed of block (U) = 0 m/s

Sliding distance (d) = 7.50 m

Coefficient of friction between block and surface (μ) = 0.650

Let the initial speed of clay be 'u' and speed of clay and block just after collision be 'v'.

Now, momentum is conserved just before and just after collision.

Momentum just before collision = $mu + 0 = mu$

Momentum just after collision = $(m + M)v$

Therefore, $mu=(M+m)v$ --------- (1)

Now, using newton's second law and we find the acceleration of the system.

The frictional force is given as:

$f=\mu mg=-ma\\\\a=-\mu g$

Now, using equation of motion, we can find the velocity just after collision.

$0^2=v^2+2ad\\\\v=\sqrt{-2ad}\\\\v=\sqrt{-2\times (-\mu g)\times d}\\\\v=\sqrt{2\mu gd}$

Plug in the given values and find 'v'. This gives,

$v=\sqrt{2\times 0.650\times 9.8\times 7.50}\\\\v=\sqrt{95.55}=9.77\ m/s$

Now, using equation (1) and substituting the given values, we get:

$0.014u=(0.014+0.110)\times 9.77\\\\u=\frac{0.124\times 9.77}{0.014}\\\\u=86.53\ m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the clay immediately before impact is 86.53 m/s.

Answer:

<u>Translated from Polish language:</u>

Coil connected in series ul = 120 resistor ur = 100 and capacitor uc = 50 Voltage with voltmeter must not be:

The voltmeter must not be connected in series rather it should be connected in parallel to the circuit to provide much effective results for analyzing the circuits potential difference.
