Answer:

P=380 ft.

Explanation:

Area=length x width

Perimeter= 2*length + 2*width

Width= 4*length + 8

A=5472 ft²

5472= l * (4l +8) (plug in values)

5472 = 4l² +8l (simplify)

4l² + 8l - 5472 = 0 (subtract 5472)

4(l² + 2l -1368) = 0 (factor out a 4)

4(l +38)(l-36)=0 (factor)

l=36 ft. (-38 is extraneous because it is negative)

5472=38*w

w=152 ft.

P=2(38) + 2(152)

P= 380 ft.

Metal paper clips do not attract or repel each other. When an electromagnet is placed nearby, the paper clips can be observed to
Paraphin [41]

The statement which describes this phenomenon is; Electrons flow freely into the magnetic field, causing the paper clips to move.

<h3>Metals and the Electromagnetic field</h3>

  • Metals are made up of positively charged atoms of elements in which case the outermost orbital of these metal atoms contain electrons revolving round them.

On this note, upon interaction with the electromagnetic field posed by an electromagnet placed nearby, it follows that;

  • The Valence electrons flow freely into the magnetic field created by the electromagnet and hence, causes the paperclip to move.

The complete question contains options given are;

Metal paper clips do not attract or repel each other. When an electromagnet is placed nearby, the paper clips can be observed to move toward it. Which statement describes this phenomenon?

  • Paper clips turn into permanent magnets after exposure to a magnetic field.

  • The electromagnet reacts to the strong force of attraction from paper clips.

  • Electrons flow freely into the magnetic field, causing the paper clips to move.

  • Magnetic domains within the paper clips align with the magnetic field.
