Answer:

Tides are caused by moon.

Explanation:

The tides are primarily formed by the gravitational attraction of moon on the surface of oceans.

At the time of full moon and new moon, the tides are higher because at that time, there is a gravitational pull of sun also which adds up with the gravitational pull of moon.

Consider a wire of a circular cross-section with a radius of R = 3.17 mm. The magnitude of the current density is modeled as J =

Sloan [31]

Answer:

The current is $I = 8.9 *10^{-5} \ A$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius is $r = 3.17 \ mm = 3.17 *10^{-3} \ m$

The current density is $J = c\cdot r^2 = 9.00*10^{6} \ A/m^4 \cdot r^2$

The distance we are considering is $r = 0.5 R = 0.001585$

Generally current density is mathematically represented as

$J = \frac{I}{A }$

Where A is the cross-sectional area represented as

$A = \pi r^2$

=> $J = \frac{I}{\pi r^2 }$

=> $I = J * (\pi r^2 )$

Now the change in current per unit length is mathematically evaluated as

$dI = 2 J * \pi r dr$

Now to obtain the current (in A) through the inner section of the wire from the center to r = 0.5R we integrate dI from the 0 (center) to point 0.5R as follows

$I = 2\pi \int\limits^{0.5 R}_{0} {( 9.0*10^6A/m^4) * r^2 * r} \, dr$

$I = 2\pi * 9.0*10^{6} \int\limits^{0.001585}_{0} {r^3} \, dr$

$I = 2\pi *(9.0*10^{6}) [\frac{r^4}{4} ] | \left 0.001585} \atop 0}} \right.$

$I = 2\pi *(9.0*10^{6}) [ \frac{0.001585^4}{4} ]$

substituting values

$I = 2 * 3.142 * 9.00 *10^6 * [ \frac{0.001585^4}{4} ]$

$I = 8.9 *10^{-5} \ A$

Power is measured in:

gogolik [260]

Power is the rate of doing work.
Its unit is joules/second.
That unit is used so often that a new word was adopted for it.

Upthrust given by Water to the body

erica [24]

Answer:

According to Archimedes principle the upthrust on the body is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the body. ... Here, the mass would be the net difference in the weight of the object.

malfutka [58]

From the information given,

diameter of ornament = 8

radius = diameter/2 = 8/2

radius of curvature, r = 4

Recall,

focal length, f = radius of curvature/2 = 4/2

f = 2

Recall,

magnification = image d
