Answer:

Iron

Explanation:

Steel is the purest form of iron with a little amount of carbon mixed in it. As we all know that iron is attracted towards magnet therefore we can say that steel can also be attracted towards magnet.

A 10-foot ladder is leaning straight up against a wall when a person begins pulling the base of the ladder away from the wall at

docker41 [41]

Answer:

$y = 4.36$

Explanation:

Let the height of the ladder be L

$L = 10$

Also:

Let $x = distance\ from\ the\ base\ of\ the\ ladder$

Let $y = height\ of\ the\ base\ of\ the\ ladder$

When the ladder leans against the wall, it forms a triangle and the length of the ladder forms the hypotenuse.

So, we have:

$L^2 = x^2 + y^2$ --- Pythagoras Theorem

When the base is 9ft from the wall, this means that:

$x = 9$

Substitute 9 for x and 10 for L in $L^2 = x^2 + y^2$

$10^2 = 9^2 + y^2$

$100 = 81 + y^2$

Make $y^2$ the subject

$y^2 = 100 - 81$

$y^2 = 19$

Make y the subject

$y = \sqrt{19$

$y = 4.36$

<em>Hence, the true distance at that point is approximately 4.36ft</em>

A train has an initial velocity of 44m/s and an accelaration of _4m/s calculate its velocity

Kobotan [32]

Complete question:

A train has an initial velocity of 44m/s and an acceleration of -4m/s². calculate its velocity after 10s ?

Answer:

the final velocity of the train is 4 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the train, u = 44 m/s

acceleration of the train, a = -4m/s² (the negative sign shows that the train is decelerating)

time of motion, t = 10 s

let the final velocity of the train = v

The final velocity of the train is calculated using the following kinematic equation;

v = u + at

v = 44 + (-4 x 10)

v = 44 - 40

v = 4 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the train is 4 m/s.

6.If a 250. gram cart moving to the right with a velocity of .31 m/s collides inelastically with a 500. gram cart traveling to t

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

Initial velocity of the cart, u = 0.31 m/s (due right)

Mass of another cart, m' = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Initial velocity of the another cart u' = -0.22 m/s (due left)

Let p is the total momentum of the system before the collision. It is given by :

$p=mu+m'u'\\\\p=0.25\times 0.31+0.5\times (-0.22)\\\\p=-0.0325\ kg-m/s$

So, the total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.

Which list includes translucent objects only

Lunna [17]

Objects that let in light and blurry images are translucent.

Translucent is a term that refers to an adjective. This characteristic is the property of an object to allow the passage of light, without allowing visibility with high clarity through it.

This term is often confused with transparency. However, they differ because a transparent object lets light through easily and allows you to see clearly through it.

According to the above, objects that allow light to pass through but do not allow clear vision are translucent.

You have given a power supply, copper wire, and an iron nail. What should you do to decrease the strength of the electro magnet?

Shkiper50 [21]

If you wrap some of the wire around the nail in one direction and some of the wire in the other direction, the magnetic fields from the different sections fight each other and cancel out, reducing the strength of your magnet.
