Answer:

The correct answer is option C. By Newton's third law. The force that the car exerts on the truck is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force the truck exerts on the car.

Explanation:

From Newton's third law which states that action and reaction are equal but opposite in direction. The forces between both vehicles are the same in magnitude but opposite in direction. Although they apply forces of equal magnitude on each other, the effect of this force is different on each of the vehicles.

From Newton's second law this force is related to the acceleration of each vehicle by the formula

F = mass × acceleration

If this force is the same in magnitude for both vehicles and let the mass of the truck and car be M and m respectively.

Let a(truck) and a(car) represent the accelerations of the truck and car respectively.

Then,

F = M×a(truck) = m×a(car)

Obviously the truck is a bigger vehicle than the car so, M > m. Since M > m the acceleration of the truck will be lesser than the acceleration of the car. This is a very practical result that happens almost everyday. The car on colliding with the truck bouces back at high speed while the truck on the other hand moves only a little distance because of its mass.

So, basically for the same magnitude of force, the greater the mass the lesser the acceleration and vice versa. Thank you for reading.

The peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

<h3>Relationship between electric and magnetic field</h3>

The relationship between electric and magnetic field at a given peak electric field is given as;

c = (E₀) / (B₀)

where;

  • c is speed of light
  • E₀ is the peak electric field
  • B₀ is the peak magnetic field

B₀ = E₀ / c

B₀ = (2.9) / (3 x 10⁹)

B₀ = 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T

Thus, the peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

2. A solenoid. Suppose the south end of a bar magnet was introduced to the right end of this solenoid at a constant velocity. Wh
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

2) deflection must be towards the negative side of the voltage.

4) the correct statements are: b and c

Explanation:

2) This question is based on Faraday's law of induction, when we introduce a magnet in a solenoid an induced current is produced that generates a voltage that is given by

           E = - N d \phi_{B} / dt

where \phi_{B} = B. A

The bold are vectors

Therefore, when applying this formula to our case, the induction lines of the magnetic field increase as we approach the solenoid, as the South pole approaches the lines are in the direction of the magnet, therefore the normal to the solenoid that has an outgoing direction and the magnetic field has 180º between them and the cos 180 = -1; consequently the deflection must be towards the negative side of the voltage.

4) From the Faraday equation we can see that the inductive electromotive force depends

* The magnitude of B that changes over time

* The area of ​​the loop that changes over time

* The angle between B and the area that changes over time

* A combination of the above

With this analysis we will review the different alternatives given

a) False. It takes a temporary change and an absolute value of B

b) True. As the speed decreases, the change in B decreases, that is, dB / dt decreases

c) True. The current is induced in each turn, if there is a smaller number the total current will be smaller

d) False. A temporary change of area is needed, in addition to increasing the area the current increases

We can see that the correct statements are: b and c
