The most recent NASA mission on Mars is Mars Science Laboratory. Its key component was Curiosity rover.
Rover has celebrated his first landing anniversary yesterday (Martian year, that is 687 Earth days).
Curiosity managed to find traces of water on Mars, so it's possible that there used to be some life on Mars.
Since landing Curiosity moved only about 5 miles form the landing site (it suffered wheel damage).

. A student claims that if lighting strikes a metal flagpole, the force exerted by the Earth’s magnetic field on the current in

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, current generated from lightning range from

10⁴ A < I < 10^5 A

We know that,

The magnetic force is given as

F = iLB

The magnetic field on the earth surface is

B = 10^-5 T

So, let assume the worst case of a 15m flag pole

L = 15m

Then,

F = iLB

F = 10^5 × 10 × 10^-5

F = 15 N

Therefore, 15N is fairly strong so it will come to the material that was use for the material of the flag pole.

Therefore, it is possible that the student is right depending on the material of the flag pole.

Two 13 cm -long thin glass rods uniformly charged to +11nC are placed side by side, 4.0 cm apart. What are the electric field st

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

E1 = 10.15 * 10^4 N/C

E2 = 0

E3 = 10.15 *10^4 N/C

Explanation:

Given data:

Two 13 cm-long thin glass rods ( L ) = 0.13 m

charge (Q) = +11nC

distance between thin glass rods = 4 cm .

<u>Calculate the electric field strengths </u>

electric charge due to a single glass rod in the question ( E ) = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$

equation 1 can be used to determine E1, E2 and E3 because the points lie within the two rods hence the net electric field produced will be equal to the difference in electric fields produced

applying equation 1 to determine E1

E1 = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$ $( \frac{1}{0.01} - \frac{1}{0.03} )$ ( distance from 1 rod is 0.01 m and from the other rod is 0.03 )

= $\frac{11*10^{-9} }{2*3.14*8.85*10^{-12}*0.13 } ( 66.67 )$

= 10.15 * 10^4 N/C

applying equation 1 to determine E2

E2 = $\frac{Q}{2\pi e_{0}rL }$ $( \frac{1}{0.02} - \frac{1}{0.02} )$

therefore E2 = 0

E1 = E3

hence E3 = 10.15*10^4 N/C

How does a change in thermal energy cause matter to change from one state to another?

Mnenie [13.5K]

Thermal energy gives the particles of the substance kinetic energy because temperature is an average measure of kinetic enegy of the particle. If we give them thermal energy the particle will move faster, gaining enough energy to escape and become free. For example, from solid to liquid, the particles would espace their fixed position and be free to move as a liquid.

2 Ten identical lengths of wire are laid closely side-by-

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

(a) 0.71 mm

(b) 0.158 cubic cm

Explanation:

The width of one wire is the diameter of the wire.

(a) Let the diameter of each wire is d.

So, 10 d = 14.2 mm

d = 1.42 mm

radius of each wire, r = d/2 = 1.42/2 = 0.71 mm

(b) Length, L = 10 cm

The volume of the single wire is given by

$V =\pi\times r^2\times h \\\\V =3.14\times 0.071^2\times 10\\\\V =0.158 cm^3$
