In an electric motor, periodically changing the direction of current in the electromagnet can cause the axle to spin because of the reversing of magnetic field direction.

Explanation

An electric motor consists of a long rod termed as axle which is connected to the electric current.

When the current will be flowing through the axle, a magnetic field will be generated around the axle due to magnetic induction.

The axle is positioned between two strong electromagnets. So when the magnetic field is generated around the axle, depending upon the direction of flow of current, the magnetic field can get attracted or repelled by the electromagnets.

Thus the change in the direction of current flow will lead to reverse in the direction of magnetic field generated around the axle causing it to spin.

A 20.0-kg traffic light hangs midway on a cable between two poles 30.0 meters apart. If the sag in the cable is 0.40 meters, wha
hammer [34]

Answer:

the tension in each side of the cable is 3677.57 N

Explanation:

given data

traffic light = 20 kg

cable between two poles = 30 m

sag in the cable = 0.40 m

solution

by the free body diagram

tan θ = \frac{0.4}{15}    .............1

θ = 1.527 °

and

tension = mg

The net force is along x - axis is express as

T2 cosθ = T1 cosθ     .................2

so T2 - T1     ..............3

and

when we take it along y  axis  that is express as

( T1 + T2) sinθ = mg    ...................4

so by equation 3 we put here

2 × T1 sin(1.527) = 20 × 9.8  

T1 = 3677.57 N

What is the height of a building (in meters) if it takes a rock 8.2 seconds to drop from it's roof?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

d = 329.81m

Explanation:

V_f = V_0+a*t

V_f = Velocity final

V_0 = Velocity initial

a = acceleration

t = time

V_f = (0m/s)+(9.81m/s²)*(8.2s)

V_f = 80.442m/s

d = ((V_f-V_0)/2)*t

d = distance

d = ((80.442m/s-0m/s)/2)*(8.2s)

d = 329.81m

Is the substance an atom or a molecule?
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A pair of oxygen atoms is a molecule of oxygen. A molecule is the smallest particle of a substance that exists independently. Molecules of most elements are made up of only one of atom of that element. Oxygen, along with nitrogen, hydrogen, and chlorine are made up of two atoms.

Evidence of wave theory light​
stira [4]

All of these things were seen in formal experiments by the 19th century. But some of them are easy to see in your own home. It's obvious that light can reflect - you just have to look in a mirror. Light bounces off the mirror and goes into your eye so you can see yourself. It's also obvious that light can refract: All you have to do is put a spoon in a large glass of water and watch how the spoon appears to bend.

That happens because the light is bending as it moves between air and water. Both of these things can be seen even more clearly in a laboratory using beams of light or lasers.
