What are the differences between a magnetic and gravitational interaction

Physics

GREYUIT [131]3 years ago

Classically, gravitational attraction is due to the masses of objects. It is inversely proportional to the square of the distances between the objects.

Magnetic attraction is due to the magnetism in objects which is due to uncompensated electron spins in certain atoms.  The force due to magnetism less easy to put into one equation than gravity since magnetic fields can have different shapes, but the simplest one (the dipolar field) is inversely proportional to the cube of the distance between the magnetic dipoles.

What does addition of two vectors give you?
mash [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

To add or subtract two vectors, add or subtract the corresponding components. Let →u=⟨u1,u2⟩ and →v=⟨v1,v2⟩ be two vectors. The sum of two or more vectors is called the resultant. The resultant of two vectors can be found using either the parallelogram method or the triangle method .

What do we call the principal SI units that are used to derive all other SI units? Question 3 options:
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer: Base units

The principal SI units that are used to derive all other SI units are called base units. The base units are the units of fundamental quantities e.g.  M L T that is Mass, Length, and Time. All other physical quantities can be written in the fundamental dimension forms. The physical quantities are not measured directly but are build up from the building blocks that are the fundamental quantities which have base units.

Sound waves travel at the rate of 343 m/s at 20°C. If a man standing 450 meters away from the wall of a canyon yells, “Hello,” h
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

2.62seconds

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the ratio of the distance covered by a body with respect to time.

Speed v = Distance (s)/Time (t)

For a traveling sound wave, the distance between the source of a sound and the reflector is '2S'.

Speed v = 2 × distance (S)/Time (T)

V = 2S/t

2S = vt

Given speed of the wave = 342m/s

Distance covered = 450m

t = 2S/v

t = (2×450)/343

t = 900/343

t = 2.62seconds

It will take him 2.62seconds for him to hear his own voice echo off of the wall.
