Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

The handle is made from a different material than the rest of the pot because you want to be able to safely move & touch the handle without getting burnt. The pot is made of conductors, like metal, to help it get hot quickly and cook evenly. You need to be able to touch the handle without being in danger, so the handle is made of an insulator, like wood, which doesn't get hot easily

I hope this helps!

Answer: the handle is made up of different material than the rest of the pot because the handle can conduct heat into your hand if its the same material.

Two spaceships are observed from earth to be approaching each other along a straight line. Ship A moves at 0.40c relative to the

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

0.80 c

Explanation:

The computation of speed is shown below:-

Here, The speed of the captain ship A report for speed of the ship B which is

$S = \frac{S_A + S_B}{1 + \frac{(S_AS_B)}{c^2} }$

where

$S_A$ indicates the speed of the ship A

$S_B$ indicates the speed of the ship B

and

C indicates the velocity of life

now we will Substitute 0.40c for A and 0.60 for B in the equation which is

$S = \frac{0.40c + 0.60c}{1 + \frac{(0.40c)(0.60c)}{c^2} }$

after solving the above equation we will get

0.80 c

So, The correct answer is 0.80c

A student makes a short electromagnet by winding 580 turns of wire around a wooden cylinder of diameter d = 2.1 cm. The coil is

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

1.02453 Am²

0.36834 m

Explanation:

N = Number of turns = 580

d = Diameter = 2.1 cm

r = Radius = $\frac{d}{2}=1.05\ cm$

A = Area = $\pi r^2$

I = Current = 5.1 A

B = Magnetic field = 4.1 μT

x = Distance

$\mu_0$ = Vacuum permeability = $4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m$

Magnetic dipole moment is given by

$\mu=NIA\\\Rightarrow \mu=580\times 5.1\times \pi\times 0.0105^2\\\Rightarrow \mu=1.02453\ Am^2$

The magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment of this device is 1.02453 Am²

Magnetic field is given by

$B=\frac{\mu_0NIA}{2\pi x^3}\\\Rightarrow x=\left(\frac{\mu_0NIA}{2\pi B}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow x=\left(\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 580\times 5.1\times \pi\times 0.0105^2}{2\pi 4.1\times 10^{-6}}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow x=0.36834\ m$

The axial distance is 0.36834 m

The drive chain in a bicycle is applying a torque of 0.850 nm to the wheel of the bicycle. treat the wheel as a hoop with a mass

BlackZzzverrR [31]

The equivalent of Newton's second law for rotational objects is given by:
$\tau = I \alpha$
where
$\tau$ is the net torque acting on the object
$I$ is its moment of inertia
$\alpha$ is its angular acceleration

For a hoop rotating around its perpendicular axis, the moment of inertia is
$I=mr^2$
where m is the mass and r the radius. By using the data of the wheel, m=0.750 kg and r=33.0 cm=0.33 m, we find
$I=mr^2 = (0.750 kg)(0.33 m)^2=0.082 kg m^2$

and since the torque is $\tau=0.850 Nm$ , the angular acceleration of the wheel is
$\alpha= \frac{\tau}{I}= \frac{0.850 Nm}{0.082 km m^2}=10.37 rad/s^2$
