Answer:

Option c

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which can travel in vacuum unlike mechanical waves which require a medium to travel. Electromagnetic waves have highest speed in vacuum. In fact, no thing can have speed greater than the speed of EM waves in vacuum. EM waves, thus move faster than the mechanical waves. EM waves carry energy by oscillations of magnetic and electric fields perpendicular to the direction of motion.

Consider dropping a ball from rest. This ball moves from astate of high gravitational potential energy to one of lowgravitationa
Leni [432]

Answer:

From the negative to the positive cable.

Explanation:

The electrons have negative charge, which means that the negative terminal of the battery will suply the electrons, thus they are present in excess on the negative cable and will jump from it to the positive cable. This current direction is called real current.

Two long, straight parallel wires are placed 38 cm apart, one above the other. The top and bottom wires are carrying currents 4.
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two parallel wire, d = 38 cm = 0.38 m

current in the first wire, I₁ = 4.0 kA

current in the second wire, I₂ = 8.0 kA

Force per unit length, between two parallel wires is given as;

\frac{F}{L} = \frac{\mu_oI_1I_2 }{2\pi d }

where;

μ₀ is constant = 4π x 10⁻⁷ T.m/A

Substitute the given values in the above equation and calculate the force per unit length

\frac{F}{L} = \frac{\mu_oI_1I_2 }{2\pi d } = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*4000*8000 }{2\pi *0.38} = 16.842 \ N/m

Therefore, the force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m

If an automobile had a 100%-efficient engine, transferring all of the fuel's energy to work, would the engine be warm to your to
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The engine would be warm to touch, and the exhaust gases would be at ambient temperature. The engine would not vibrate nor make any noise. None of the fuel entering the engine would go unused.

Explanation:

In this ideal engine, none of these events would happen due to the nature of the efficiency.

We can define efficiency as the ratio between the used energy and the potential generable energy in the fuel.

n=W, total/(E, available).

However, in real engines the energy generated in the combustion of the fuel transforms into heat (which heates the exhost gases, and the engine therefore transfering some of this heat to the environment). Also, there are some mechanical energy loss due to vibrations and sound, which are also energy that comes from the fuel combustion.

Water can dissolve almost anything in the universe
Elodia [21]

Answer:

No, its not possible for water to dissolve almost anything in the universe.

Explanation:

Solubility of a solute defines the ability of that solute to dissolve in a given solvent. It is defined as the maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium. The solution which results from dissolving this maximum amount is called a saturated solution, and one it has been reached, no more solute can be dissolved in it.

Different substances in the universe have diffferent solubilities in water, some very high (soluble) (eg. sugar and salt) and some very low (insoluble) (eg plastics). The substances that are able to form bonds with water (Hydrogen or Ionic) are more soluble than those who are not able to do so.

A heavy boy and a lightweight girl are balanced on a mass-less seesaw. If they both move forward so that they are one-half their
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Explanation:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Reason:-

When two kids are balanced, the sum of torques on the seesaw will be zero.

if each kid, reduces their distances by half, then the torque of each kid will be half and the sum of torque of each on the seesaw will be zero.

Therefore the seesaw is balanced
