You have a horizontal cathode-ray tube (CRT) for which the controls have been adjusted such that the electron beam should make a

single spot of light exactly in the center of the screen. You observe, however, that the spot is deflected to the right. It is possible that the CRT is broken. But as a clever scientist, you realize that your laboratory might be in either an electric or a magnetic field. Assuming that you do not have a compass, any magnets, or any charged rods, how can you use the CRT itself to determine whether the CRT is broken, is in an electric field, or is in a magnetic field

Answer:

Please look in the explanation section

Explanation:

If the beam is in a magnetic field, a simple check is to rotate the CRT a quarter of a turn. If the beam is to the right, a magnetic field should be produced. This is because a magnetic field would be up or down that will allow the beam to be pushed to the right or left. In conclusion, if turning the CRT a quarter of a turn, nothing should happen because the CRT is perpendicular to the magnetic field.

A check to see if the beam is in an E field, you should rotate the CRT a quarter of a turn and see if the beam is centered. If you turn the CRT again another quarter of a turn and see if the beam is bent in the opposite direction. If both tests are true, then the CRT must be in an E field. Otherwise, the CRT will be broken.

A piece of iron sinks to the bottom of a lake where the pressure is 21 times what it is at the surface of the lake. Which statem
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A or B depending on your precision

Explanation:

In real life, applying to solid will shrink it depending on the amount of pressure applied, but due to the strength of solid bonds, the volume change is often negligible in practical situation and would only be accounted under astronomically high pressure phenomena (eg. at Jupiter's core or near black hole).

In high school level, and for many applications, it is entirely viable to completely neglect the change in solid volume under pressure. Thus, A is a legitimate answer. However, bear in mind that <em>in theory</em> the volume still decreases by a very slight amount. So B is correct as well, theoretically. The most correct option depends on the precision you needed.
