<span>If you put a magnet right next to a USB drive, depending on the strength of the magnet and the amount of steel, nickel or cobalt used in the construction of that particular model of USB drive, the drive would either adhere to, or not adhere to, the magnet. This would cause no other significant effects. The storage of data in solid state form (as in USB drives) is not magnetic in nature, so no deletion or any other damage of the stored data would occur.</span>

Before going to answer this first we have to know the various  types of materials that are present in an USB  drives.

The major materials of the USB drives are copper,silver and to some extent there will be gold plating also.

It contains the alloy like Brass also.

Irrespective of this it contains the integrated circuits[ICs] which are made up of semiconducting materials mostly like silicon.

From the above we get that a USB drive does not contain any type of magnetic materials.The data in the USB drive are stored in the form of electric charges .

Whenever a USB drive is taken towards a magnet and placed gently close to it,the magnetic field can't affect the data stored inside the drive as it is not magnetic in nature.The rest magnet cant not affect the the charge particles present inside the drive.

But if the magnetic filed has great strength and there will be any relative motion between drive and magnet,then it will induce a force on the drive which has still less impact on the drive. A magnet can hamper the stored data if that will be magnetic in nature.

Give an explaination to the following formula p=I^2R
Art [367]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is the equation that defines the power consumed by an electrical circuit. It is normally defined as the product of the voltage applied (V) times the current (I) that runs through it. And in the case of a resistive circuit (resistors in the circuit totaling a certain resistance R), one can use Ohm's law to replace the voltage by the product of the current (I) times the resistance (R), obtaining then the square of the current:

P=V*I=(I*R)*I=I^2 * R

An oscillating object takes 0.10 s to complete one cycle; that is, its period is 0.10 s. what is its frequency f? express your a
Tems11 [23]
<span>10 hertz Hertz is the frequency of oscillation which is the number of oscillations per second. So if something takes 0.10 s per oscillation, divide 1 second by the period to get the frequency. So 1 / 0.10s = 10 1/s = 10 Hertz Therefore the object is vibrating at 10 hertz.</span>

A thin, flat washer is a disk with an outer diameter of 14 cm and a hole in the center with a diameter of 7 cm. The washer has a
Kryger [21]

Answer:

2583.9 N/C

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Outer diameter = 14 cm

Outer radius, R = 7cm = 0.07m

Inner diameter = 7 cm

Inner radius, r = 3.5 cm = 0.035m

Charge of washer = 8 nC = 8 * 10^(-9)C

Distance from washer, z = 33 cm = 0.33m

The electric field due to a washer (hollow disk) is given as:

E = k * σ * 2π [ 1 - z/(√(z² + R²)]

Where σ = charge per unit area

σ = q/π(R² - r²)

σ = 8 * 10^(-9) /(π*(0.07 - 0.035)²)

σ = 2.077 * 10^(-6) C/m²

=> E = 9 * 10^9 * 2.077 * 10^(-6) * 2π * [1 - 0.33/(√(0.33² + 0.07²)]

E = 117.467 * 10^3 * (1 - 0.978)

E = 117.467 * 10^3 * 0.022

E = 2583.9 N/C
