It is fairly easy to build an electromagnet. All you need to do is wrap some insulated copper wire around an iron core. If you attach a battery to the wire, an electric current will begin to flow and the iron core will become magnetized. When the battery is disconnected, the iron core will lose its magnetism. Follow these steps.
Step 1 - Gather the Materials
One iron nail fifteen centimeters (6 in) long
Three meters (10 ft) of 22 gauge insulated, stranded copper wire
One or more D-cell batteries
Step 2 - Remove some Insulation
Step 3 - Wrap the Wire Around the Nail
Step 4 - Connect the Battery

<h2>Answer:</h2>

By wrapping wire around the nail and attaching battery to the wire ends

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

We can use a pair of wire cutter to remove a few centimeters of insulation from each end of the wire that is used. Then neatly wrapping the wire around the nail. The more wire we wrap around the nail, the stronger our electromagnet will be. After that attaching the battery to the ends of the wire will turn the coil into an electromagnet.

A bag of sugar weighs 5.00 lb on Earth. What would it weigh in newtons on the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration is one-sixt
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Earth: 22.246 N

Moon: 3.71 N

Jupiter: 58.72 N

Explanation:

The mass of an object will remain constant in any location, its weight however, can fluctuate depending on its location. For example, a golf ball will weigh less on the moon, but its mass will not be different if it was on earth.

To calculate anything, we need to convert to standard measurements.

5.00 lbs = 2.27 kg

On earth, gravity is measured to be 9.8 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on Earth would be: (2.27 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 22.246 N

Repeated on the moon where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (1/6) = 1.633 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on the moon would be: (2.27 kg) x (1.633 m/s²) = 3.71 N

Repeated on Jupiter where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (2.64) = 25.87 m/s², so the wight in Newtons on Jupiter would be: (2.27 kg) x (25.87 m/s²) = 58.72 N

A 2.7-kg ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 20.0 m/s from the edge of a 45.0 m high cliff. At the instant the ball i
scoray [572]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the woman is 34.1m

Explanation:

Given

The initial height of the cliff

yo = 45m final, positition y = 0m bottom of the cliff

y = yo + ut -1/2gt²

u = 20.0m/s initial speed

g = 9.80m/s²

0 = 45.0 + 20×t –1/2×9.8×t²

0 = 45 +20t –4.9t²

Solving quadratically or by using a calculator,

t = 5.69s and –1.61s byt time cannot be negative so t = 5.69s

So this is the total time it takes for the ball to reach the ground from the height it was thrown.

The distance traveled by the woman is

s = vt

Given the speed of the woman v = 6.00m/s

Therefore

s = 6.00×5.69 = 34.14m

Approximately 34.1m to 3 significant figures.

A common misconception is that an object always moves when a force acts on it. Why is this statement incorrect? Explain the conc
dsp73

Answer:

The statement is incorrect because, a force acting on an object does not necessarily have to produce motion.

People have the misconception that when a force acts on an object it always produces motion

Explanation:

The statement is incorrect because, a force acting on an object does not necessarily have to produce motion. It could be in static equilibrium where the net force is zero and produces not motion. The body could also be in dynamic equilibrium when  no net force acts on it moving at a constant velocity. But here we are concerned with static equilibrium since the body does not move at all.

People have the misconception that when a force acts on an object it always produces motion and, we have seen from the above tat its not always true.

Which of the following statements are true? Select all correct responses. Choose all that apply. Choose all that apply. The tota
Ne4ueva [31]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

-The total momentum of an isolated system is constant.

-The total momentum of any number of particles is equal to the vector sum of the momenta of the individual particles.

-The vector sum of forces acting on a particle equals the rate of change of momentum of the particle with respect to time.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Momentum is a vector quantity, and therefore we need to use vector addition when summing together the momenta of the multiple bodies which make up a system.
  • The vector sum of forces acting on a particle is equivalent to the rate of change of momentum of the particle with respect to time. This is according to the Newton's second Law of motion. In mathematical terms, ֿF = d ֿp/dt, that is F= ma.
  • According to the Law of conservation of Momentum, or a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.
