A student has the following equipment - copper wire, nail made of iron,a battery, paperclips.

1 answer:

3 0

Taking the copper wire, he has to wind it around the nail made of iron. After which, he then connect both ends of the copper wire to the battery, so an electric charge travels through the wire. This is the basic electromagnet. Since a current is now flowing through the wire, a magnetic field is produced. Placing the electromagnet near the mixture of copper and iron, the magnet should attract the pieces of iron, as iron is more magnetic compared to copper. This is done over a period of time, so that only the copper pieces are left in the mixture.

How old is a bone if it still has 50% of its carbon-14 content?

Degger [83]

Answer:

5730 years

Explanation:

The half life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. If 50% of the carbon-14 remains, then exactly 1 half life has passed.

The half-life equation is:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the remaining amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is time,

and T is the half life.

In this case, A = ½ A₀ and T = 5730.

½ A₀ = A₀ (½)^(t / 5730)

½ = (½)^(t / 5730)

1 = t / 5730

t = 5730

The frequency of a person's pendulum is 0.3204 Hz when at a location where g is known to be exactly 9.800 m/s^2.

wel

Answer:

A) g = 9.751 m/s², B) h = 2.573 10⁴ m

Explanation:

The angular velocity of a pendulum is

w = √ g / L

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

w = 2π f

f = 1 / 2π √ g / L

A) with the initial data we can look for the pendulum length

L = 1 /4π² g / f²

L = 1 /4π² 9,800 / 0.3204²

L = 2.4181 m

The length of the pendulum does not change, let's look for the value of g for the new location

g = 4π² f² L

g = 4π² 0.3196² 2.4181

g = 9.75096 m / s²

g = 9.751 m/s²

B) The value of the acceleration of gravity can be found with the law of universal gravitation

F = G m M / $R_{e}$ ²

And Newton's second law

W = m g

W = F

G m M / $R_{e}$ ² = mg

g = G M / $R_{e}$ ²

$R_{e}$ ² = G M / g

Let's calculate

$R_{e}$ ² = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ /9.75096

R = √ 4.0905 10¹³ = √ 40.9053 10¹²

R = 6.395726 10⁶ m

The height above sea level is

h = R - [tex]R_{e}[/tex

h = (6.395726 -6.37) 10⁶

h = 0.0257256 106

h = 2.573 10⁴ m

Photograph E shows a rechargeable torch. When a student shakes the torch, the magnet moves through the coil and back again. This

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

a) according to Faraday's law , b) creating a faster movement, placing more turns on coil

Explanation:

a) The voltage is induced in the coil by the relative movement between it and the magnet, therefore according to Faraday's law

E = - d (B A) / dt

In this case, the magnet is involved, so the value of the magnetic field varies with time, since the number of lines that pass through the loop changes with movement.

This voltage creates a current that charges the battery

b) There are several ways to increase the voltage

* creating a faster movement, can be done by the user

* placing more turns on the coil, must be done by the manufacturer
