Two children stand on a platform at the top of a curving slide next to a backyard swimming pool. At the same moment the smaller
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

i )

In a conservative field like gravitational field , loss of potential energy  or work done , depends upon the initial and final point and not the manner in which 2 nd point has been reached . Since the initial and final point is same in both the cases of straight and curved path , final velocity will remain same for both of them .

Hence , due to increased mass of larger child , his kinetic energy will be greater .

ii ) Since the initial and final point is same in both the cases of straight and curved path , final velocity will remain same for both of them .

iii ) Smaller child undergo free fall , therefore , he will fall with acceleration g . The larger child falls on curved path . So , he will have only a component of

vertical g at any moment  . hence average acceleration  will be less.

There are four coils of wire being used as electromagnets. They all have the same size and are made up of the same material but
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The coil with the maximum number of loops will produce the magnetic field with the maximum strength.

Explanation:

The magnetic field produced by a current-carrying coil at a point on the axis which is passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane is given by

\rm B=\dfrac{\mu_o N I }{2}\ \dfrac{R^2}{(r^2+R^2)^{3/2}}.

<em>where</em>,

  • \mu_o = magnetic permeability of the free space.
  • N = number of loops of the coil.
  • I = current flowing through the coil.
  • R = radius of the coil.
  • r = distance of the point where the magnetic field is to be found from the center of the coil.

Now, it is given that all the four coils have the same size, means same radius R, same material, means same permeability for all the coils, and the same amount of current is passing through all the coils, means same current I.  

The magnetic field of all the four coils is differing only due to the number of loops N.

Thus, the coil with the maximum number of loops N will produce the magnetic field with the maximum strength.

Consider a turntable to be a circular disk of moment of inertia It rotating at a constant angular velocity ωi around an axis thr
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Note: Angular momentum is always conserved in a collision.

The initial angular momentum of the system is

L = ( It ) ( ωi )

where It = moment of inertia of the rotating circular disc,

ωi = angular velocity of the rotating circular disc

The final angular momentum is

L = ( It + Ir ) ( ωf )

where ωf is the final angular velocity of the system.

Since the two angular momenta are equal, we see that

( It ) ( ωi ) = ( It + Ir ) ( ωf )

so making ωf the subject of the formula

ωf = [ ( It ) / ( It + Ir ) ] ωi

Which would most likely cause specular reflection? O a pathway with rough rocks a shiny, smooth leaf a small patch of soil a rou
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a shiny smooth leaf

Explanation:

A shiny smooth leaf will cause specular reflection. Other choices will cause diffused reflection from the surface.

A specular reflection is similar to how a mirror or smooth surface reflects. The incident light is given off as a single ordered reflection from the surface of a body.

For this to occur, the surface incident must be smooth and without rough patterns on it.

A path way with rough rocks, small patch of soil and rough logs will give off diffused reflection
