Answer:

D. Pressure increases with increasing depth

Explanation:

The mathematical expression of pressure is defined as

Pressure = density x gravity x height.

From the expressions, pressure is directly proportional to height. So, the deeper you go the greater the pressure.

As viewed from above in this picture, what direction will the current be in the coil of wire that will cause the loop to rotate
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

When viewed from above, the current in the coil should point towards the top-right corner of the picture.

Explanation:

The current in this coil have only two possible directions: clockwise or counter-clockwise. However, since the diagram shows the coil from above, not from a cross-section, just saying clockwise or counter-clockwise might be ambiguous. The statement that the current is directed towards the top-right corner of the picture is equivalent to saying that when viewed from the lower-right corner of this diagram, the current in the coil is moving clockwise.

Note that at the center of this picture, the current is parallel to the magnetic field- there will be no force on the coil at that position. On the other hand, (also when viewed from above,) at the top-right corner and the lower-left corner of the coil, the current in the coil will be perpendicular to the magnetic field. That's where the force on the coil will be the strongest.

With that in mind, apply the right-hand rule to find the direction of the force on the coil in each of the two possibilities.

Assume that when viewed from above, the current is flowing towards the top-right corner of the picture. Consider the wire near the top-right corner of this coil (as viewed above on this picture.) The current will be going into the picture into the magnetic field. By the right-hand rule, the current on the wire near that point should be pointing towards the bottom of this picture. (Point fingers on the right hand in the direction of the current I. Rotate the right hand such that when curling the fingers, they point in the direction of the magnetic field B. The direction of the right thumb should now point in the direction of the force on the wire F.)

Based on the same assumption, the current in the wires near the bottom left corner of this coil will be pointing out of the picture. By the right hand rule, the magnetic force on the coil in that region should be pointing towards the top of this picture. Combing these two forces, the coil would indeed be rotating around the center of this picture in the direction shown in the diagram.

It can also be shown that if the current points towards the bottom left corner of the picture when viewed from above, the coil will be rotating about the center of this picture in the opposite direction.

Tju [1.3M]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct option is A.

A) The increased pressure, pushed the molecules closer together, and caused the marshmallow to shrink.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Jayden experimented, she placed the marshmallow in the syringe and sealed the end. When she depressed the plunger of the syringe, the pressure increased and pushed the molecules closer together and causes the marshmallow to shrink.

Both the lens and the cornea of the eye have a primary function of
3241004551 [841]

Answer: B. bending light

Explanation:

The phenomenom of vision in human eye is thanks to refraction (when light changes its direction as it passes through one medium to another), and this is what the cornea and the lens do.

When the ray of light encounters the eye, the first thing it finds is the <u>cornea</u>, which<u> bends this ray and begins to form an image</u>, then light passes through the <u>pupil</u>, which is in charge of regulating the amount of light that enters in the eye.  

After light travels through pupil it passes through the <u>lens</u>, where <u>the rays of light change the direction again in order to focus the formed image on the retina. </u>

At this point it is important to note the formed image is downward, then the retina transforms light into electrical impulses that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve and finally the brain interprets these messages, and forms a right upward image.

In the image attached these parts can be seen.
