Explain why a magnet sitting next to a wire does not induce a current in a wire

1 answer:

7 0

When a conductor is put at right angle with magnetic field and the conductor is moved maintaining the right angle between itself , the magnetic field and the direction of motion then current is induced in the conductor, then Flemming's right hand rule is used to determine the direction of flow of current. Therefore a magnet sitting next to a wire does not induce current unless the above conditions are met

Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 356 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 478

klasskru [66]

Answer:

a) 2.5 m/s²

b) 6.12 m/s

Explanation:

Tension of rope = T = 356N

Weight of material = W = 478 N

Distance from the ground = s = 7.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.81 m/s²

Mass of material = m = 478/9.81 = 48.72

Final velocity before the bundle hits the ground = v

Initial velocity = u = 0

Acceleration experienced by the material when being lowered = a

a) W-T = ma

⇒478-356 = 48.72×a

$\Rightarrow \frac{122}{48.72} = a$

⇒a = 2.5 m/s²

∴ Acceleration achieved by the material is 2.5 m/s²

b) v²-u² = 2as

⇒v²-0 = 2×2.5×7.5

⇒v² = 37.5

⇒v = 6.12 m/s

∴ Velocity of the material before hitting the ground is 6.12 m/s

We have a toy gun with a spring constant of 50 N/m. The spring is compressed by 0.2 m. If you neglect friction and the mass of t

Arisa [49]

Answer:

$31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}$

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by $Us=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$ , where $k$ is the spring constant of the spring and $x$ is displacement from point of equilibrium.

When released, this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is given by $KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ , where $m$ is the mass of the object and $v$ is the object's velocity.

Thus, we have:

$Us=KE,\\\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Substituting given values, we get:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot 50\cdot 0.2^2=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 0.002\cdot v^2,\\v^2=\frac{50\cdot 0.2^2}{0.002},\\v^2=1000,\\v\approx \boxed{31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}}$

Scientist have measured that the vibrations of an earthquake travel faster through solid rocks in the Earth and slower in the li

GarryVolchara [31]

A. The particles are packed more tightly in materials with more density which causes the vibrations to bounce of the partials more rapidly which makes them go faster

I am currently studying about spectrums, difraction Gratings, and many other spectrum. So my question is: What should the Spectr

saveliy_v [14]

The spectrum of light from the moon should very strongly resemble the spectrum of sunlight. The reason is that any light from the moon started out from the sun. Any difference in their spectra is only due to the moon absorbing more of some wavelengths and less of others. But since the moon appears colorless gray, we don't expect any particular colors to be strongly absorbed, otherwise the moon would look to be the colors of the light that's left.

ILL ADD BRAINLIEST

Marina86 [1]

This is kinda confusing. I wish u just to a screenshot of the problem but here goes...

Forest at highest latitudes- Hardwood trees/deer, squirrel, foxes

Praries/temperate climate- Mostly small mammals/scrubs/steppes

High humidity/rainfall near equator- Abundant thick vegatation/manny species

No trees/ polar bears/ mosses- 25cm rain/few animals
