Renaldo and Nasreen build an electromagnet by wrapping a wire around a nail and connecting the wire to both terminals of a batte

ry. When they test the electromagnet, it can pick up 6 paper clips. Their teacher wants all groups to pick up at least 10 paper clips. What could Renaldo and Nasreen do to increase the number of paper clips their electromagnet picks up?
Question 9 options:

a.increase the number of loops of wire around the nail


b.make the wire longer


c.remove the nail from the center of the wire


d.spread the loops of wire apart on the nail so they do not touch

Answer: a.increase the number of loops of wire around the nail

Explanation:

An electromagnet is created when a wire is wrapped around a conductor that is a nail and current is passed through. The nail would act like a magnet. The nail would attract more number of clips if the magnetic strength of the magnet that is the of the nail can be increased. In order to increase the amount of magnetic field strength, the amount of current should be increased or number of turns can be increased. Thus, from the given options, the most suitable one is a.increase the number of loops of wire around the nail

A sprinter runs 50m. You are given a stopwatch. Describe how you would measure: 1. the average speed of the sprinter over the en
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance = 50 m

1. To find the average speed, first start the stop watch as the sprinter starts running and then stop it when he reaches the finish line.

Now note the time taken by the sprinter to run for 50 m.

The average speed of the sprinter is defined as the ratio of total distance covered to the total time taken.

Average speed = total distance / total time

2. To find the instantaneous speed, check the seed of the sprinter as he is at the finish line.

The water from a fire hose follows a path described by y equals 3.0 plus 0.8 x minus 0.40 x squared ​(units are in​ meters). If
ivanzaharov [21]

Explanation:

It is given that, the water from a fire hose follows a path described by equation :

y=3+0.8x-0.4x^2........(1)

The x component of constant velocity, v_x=5\ m/s

We need to find the resultant velocity at the point (2,3).

Let \dfrac{dx}{dt}=v_x and \dfrac{dy}{dt}=v_y

Differentiating equation (1) wrt t as,

\dfrac{dy}{dt}=0.8\times \dfrac{dx}{dt}-0.8x\times \dfrac{dx}{dt}

v_y=0.8\times v_x-0.8x\times v_x

v_y=0.8v_x(1-x)

When x = 2 and v_x=5\ m/s

So,

v_y=0.8\times 5\times (1-2)

v_y=-4\ m/s

Resultant velocity, v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}

v=\sqrt{5^2+(-4)^2}

v = 6.4 m/s

So, the resultant velocity at point (2,3) is 6.4 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

a block of wood is floating in water. the weight of the part of the block above water is one-third of the total weight of the bl
andrey2020 [161]
<span>
The weight of the water displaced is the same as the total weight of the wood block. The fact that 1/3 of the block is above the water level does not matter if you just weigh the total block of wood , then the weight of the total block of wood = the weight of the water displaced by the block of wood. If you want to find density of the block of wood that is a different question - then you need the volume of the block of wood and the information about one- third of the total weight . I hope this helped</span>
