How did foucaults pendulum and coriolis effect are used to demonstrate earths tilt?

Physics

HACTEHA [7]4 years ago

They do not demonstrate Earth's tilt. In fact, they're not "used" to demonstrate anything. It works the other way:. When you observe the Coriolis effect and the behavior of the Foucault pendulum, and you try to explain why the behave the way they do, one possible simple explanation for both of them is the Earth's ROTATION. Then, when you also observe the rising and setting of the sun and moon, and you also notice how the NUMBERS all go together, the case for the rotating, spherical Earth gets stronger and stronger.

A 34-m length of wire is stretched horizontally between two vertical posts. The wire carries a current of 68 A and experiences a
il63 [147K]

Answer:

7.28×10⁻⁵ T

Explanation:

Applying,

F = BILsin∅............. Equation 1

Where F = magnetic force, B = earth's magnetic field, I = current flowing through the wire, L = Length of the wire, ∅ = angle between the field and the wire.

make B the subject of the equation

B = F/ILsin∅.................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 0.16 N, I = 68 A, L = 34 m, ∅ = 72°

Substitute these values into equation 2

B = 0.16/(68×34×sin72°)

B = 0.16/(68×34×0.95)

B = 0.16/2196.4

B = 7.28×10⁻⁵ T

A friend asks you how much pressure is in your car tires. You know that the tire manufacturer recommends 30 psi, but it's been a
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

21 psi

Explanation:

The weight of the car is:

W = mg

W = 1000 kg * 9.8 m/s²

W = 9800 N

Divided by 4 tires, each tire supports:

F = W/4

F = 9800 N / 4

F = 2450 N

Pressure is force divided by area, so:

P = F / A

P = (2450 N) / (0.13 m × 0.13 m)

P ≈ 145,000 Pa

101,325 Pa is the same as 14.7 psi, so:

P ≈ 145,000 Pa × (14.7 psi / 101,325 Pa)

P ≈ 21 psi

joja [24]

Answer: Boyle found that when the pressure of a gas at a constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. When the pressure of a gas is decreased, the volume increases. This relationship between pressure and volume it's called Boyle's law.

Explanation: In the 1600s, Boyle measured the volumes of gases at different pressures. Boyle found that when the pressure of a gas at a constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. When the pressure of a gas is decreased, the volume increases. This relationship between pressure and volume it's called Boyle's law.
