Braddy connected the loose wire to the battery and created an electromagnet. He picked up 45 thumb tacks with his electromagnet,

though his goal was to pick up 50 thumb tacks. What could Braddy do to increase the strength of his electromagnet and pick up more thumbtacks? A) Use fewer coils of wire. B) Use a screw instead of a nail. C) Use two batteries instead of one. D) Replace the nail with a piece of steel.

Answer:

C) Use two batteries instead of one.

Explanation:

-Strength of an electromagnet depends on the electrical current which flows through the wires.

-Two batteries have a higher current than one and thus higher strength in the electromagnet.

Hydraulic press is called an instrument for multiplication of force. Why?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Hydraulic press is called an instrument for multiplication of force. Why? Because it uses Pascal's idea and  principle: F=p*S. If we apply small force to small piston you will generate a pressure. According to Pascal's law pressure is the same everywhere in closed system so the same pressure will act on large piston on the other side too.

Problem One: A beam of red light (656 nm) enters from air into the side of a glass and then into water. wavelength, c. and speed
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Part a)

f_w = f_g = 4.57 \times 10^{14} Hz

Part b)

\lambda_w = 492 nm

\lambda_g = 437.3 nm

Part c)

v_w = 2.25 \times 10^8 m/s

v_g = 2.0 \times 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

frequency of light will not change with change in medium but it will depend on the source only

so here frequency of light will remain same in both water and glass and it will be same as that in air

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

f = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{656 \times 10^{-9}}

f = 4.57 \times 10^{14} Hz

Part b)

As we know that the refractive index of water is given as

\mu_w = 4/3

so the wavelength in the water medium is given as

\lambda_w = \frac{\lambda}{\mu_w}

\lambda_w = \frac{656 nm}{4/3}

\lambda_w = 492 nm

Similarly the refractive index of glass is given as

\mu_w = 3/2

so the wavelength in the glass medium is given as

\lambda_g = \frac{\lambda}{\mu_g}

\lambda_g = \frac{656 nm}{3/2}

\lambda_g = 437.3 nm

Part c)

Speed of the wave in water is given as

v_w = \frac{c}{\mu_w}

v_w = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{4/3}

v_w = 2.25 \times 10^8 m/s

Speed of the wave in glass is given as

v_g = \frac{c}{\mu_g}

v_g = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{3/2}

v_g = 2 \times 10^8 m/s

A circuit consists of one 330 ohm resistor in series with two other resistors (470 ohms and 220 ohms) connected in parallel. Wha
umka21 [38]

Answer:

power drain on an ideal battery, P = 0.017 W

Given:

R_{1} = 330\ohm

R_{2} = 470\ohm

R_{3} = 220\ohm

Since, R_{2} = 470\ohm and R_{3} = 220\ohm are in parallel and this combination is in series with R_{1} = 330\ohm, so,

Equivalent resistance of the circuit is given by:

R_{eq} = \frac{R_{2}R_{3}}{R_{2} + R_{3}} + R_{1}

R_{eq} = \frac{470\times 220}{470 + 220} + 330

R_{eq} = 149.85 + 330 = 479.85 \ohm

power drain on an ideal battery, P = \frac{V^{2}}{R_{eq}}

                                                      P = \frac{2.9^{2}}{479.85}

                                                      P = 0.017 W

PLEASE HELP ME IM ON A TIMER
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Displacement: 6.71 m, Direction: 63.4 degrees north of east

Explanation:

In the attached image we can aprecciate each one of the movements of the parade. Let's say that the parade started from the origin (point (0,0)) then it moves to the east 4 blocks it means now the parade is located at point (4,0).

Then the parade went to the south three blocks, so it moves to the coordinate (4,-3). After this the parade went to the west one block so the new coordinate point is (3, -3).

And finally the movement of the 0 parade was 9 blocks to the north. It means the final point is now (0,9) - (3,-3) = (3,6)

And the displacement will be defined by the folliwing vector operation:

A (0,0) = oi + 0j\\F (3,6) = 3i + 6 j\\Displacement vector = (3-0)i + (6-0)j = 3i + 6j

We know that the magnitude of the displacement vector is defined by the phytagoras theorem

Displacement = \sqrt{(3)^2+ (6)^2} \\Displacement = 6.70

And the angle will be defined by:

tan(beta)=3/6

beta = tan^-1(6/3)

beta = 63.43°
