The north pole of one magnet attracts the south pole of a second magnet, while the north pole of one magnet repels the other magnet's north pole. So we have the common saying: like poles repel, unlike poles attract. A magnet creates an invisible area of magnetism all around it called a magnetic field.

What two models are used to describe how light behaves
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Light is one of nature's ways of moving energy from one place to another.

Explanation:

It has no substance, or mass. How does light travel? Light behaves like a traveling wave, something like waves in a string or on the surface of water.

Which statement correctly describes both sound and light waves?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Option C. Light waves can travel through space, sound waves cannot.

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic wave which requires no Meduim for propagation. However, sound wave requires a medium for propagation. Since space is empty, sound can not travel through it.

Two balls of clay, with masses M1 = 0.49 kg and M2 = 0.47 kg, are thrown at each other and stick when they collide. Mass 1 has a
malfutka [58]

Answer:

a) p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}

b) v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}

c) v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given masses:

m_1=0.49\ kg

m_2=0.47\ kg

Velocity of mass 1, v_1=3.2 \hat{i}\ m.s^{-1}

Velocity of mass 2, v_2=1.6 \hat{j}\ m.s^{-1}

a)

Initial momentum:

p_i=m_1.v_1+m_2.v_2

p_i=0.49\times 3.2 \hat{i}+0.47\times 1.6 \hat{j}

p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}

b)

magnitude of initial momentum:

p_i=\sqrt{1.568^2+0.752 ^2}

p_i=1.739\ kg.m.s^{-1}

From the conservation of momentum:

p_f=p_i

m_f.v_f=1.739

v_f=\frac{1.739}{0.49+0.47}

v_f=1.85\ m.s^{-1} is the magnitude of final velocity.

Direction of final velocity will be in the direction of momentum:

tan\theta=\frac{0.752 }{1.568}

\theta=25.62^{\circ}

\therefore v_{fx}=1.85\ cos25.62^{\circ}

v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}

c)

Vertical component of final velocity:

v_{fy}=1.85\ sin 25.62^{\circ}

v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}

In September 2016 you purchased a 125 shares of Grainger stock for $224.84. It is now September 2019 and Grainger stock is curre
Temka [501]

Answer:

Gain in capital = $ 70.72

Explanation:

Given:

- The price of stocks when purchased P_o = $ 224.84

- The price of stocks when sold P_s = $ 295.56

Find:

what would be your capital gain (loss) on the sale, ignoring commissions

Solution:

- The capital gain or loss on the selling of stocks stems from the difference of buying and selling value of stocks. The original price of stock was P_o and the selling price would be P_s. The difference would be:

                             capital gain = P_s - P_o

                             capital gain =  $295.56 - $224.84

                             capital gain = $ 70.72

- Hence, there would be a gain in capital if sold today for about $ 70.72.
