Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

A metal detector is usually defined as an instrument that is commonly used to detect the presence of metals in the bags and luggage. It is very widely used in places like airports, railway stations, and other important official places.

This device is generally activated with the help of electromagnetic induction. It contains a single or numerous inducting coils which are connected to the elements placed on the ground surface. These used materials are metallic in nature. Within the region of the electromagnetic field, when any metallic substance enters, it immediately gains energy and thereby transmits an electromagnetic field of its own.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Select the correct Answers.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

3. The temperatures of the two substances equalize.

Explanation:

  • As two objects at different temperatures are placed in contact, heat is transferred from the warmer to the cooler object until the temperature of the two objects be the same.
  • The amount of heat that is transferred from the warmer object is equal to the amount of heat that is transferred into the cooler object.
  • This is in agreement with the law of conservation of energy.
  • <em>So, the right choice is: 3. The temperatures of the two substances equalize. </em>

Consider the following reaction.
Ivan

Answer:

162 g Fe₂O₃

Explanation:

To find the mass of Fe₂O₃, you need to (1) convert grams C to moles C (via molar mass from periodic table), then (2) convert moles C to moles Fe₂O₃ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles Fe₂O₃ to grams (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the given value.

Molar Mass (C): 12.011 g/mol

2 Fe₂O₃(s) + 3 C(s) ---> 4 Fe(s) + 3 CO₂(g)

Molar Mass (Fe₂O₃): 2(55.845 g/mol) + 3(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (Fe₂O₃): 159.684 g/mol

18.3 g C           1 mole            2 moles Fe₂O₃          159.684 g
--------------  x  ----------------  x  -------------------------  x  -----------------  = 162 g Fe₂O₃
                        12.011 g              3 moles C                 1 mole

Think of a bath sponge. What happens when you squeeze it? How could you explain it from the point of view of the state of the ag
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

What happens when it is squeezed is that its volume increases, the pressure of the material increases.

Explanation:

This is due to the fact that the elastic modulus of the sponge is high and withstands broad forces without deforming its structure, since the force is made within the proportional limit of its particles without modifying or permanently deforming them, that is why when stopping doing pressure or force on it its shape returns to being the original, this also happens due to the phenomenon of resilience
