<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

the one with the highest specific heat

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
  • The specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram °C or 4.186 joule/gram °C which is higher than any other common substance.
  • <em><u>A metal with the highest specific heat will cause the greatest increase in temperature of water in a calorimeter because the metal would hold more heat, and then transfer the greater quantity of heat to the water.</u></em>

The fact that the magnetic field generates a force perpendicular to the instantaneous velocity of the particle has implications
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

<h2>c. remain constant</h2>

Explanation:

Such type of field that is created by the magnetic condition is known as magnetic field. Such type of the developed by electrical condition and some other ways. This filed has many important roles in electrical engineering and some other fields.  

When any magnetic field acts in perpendicular condition then no work is done by the field. Thus the kinetic energy and speed of the particle remain in constant condition.

a wrench weighs 5.24 newtons on earth. when it is taken to the Moon, where g =1.16 m/s2 how much does it weigh?
Andrew [12]

“Weight of the wrench” on “the moon” is “6.07 kg”.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Weight of the wrench is 5.24 N  

Weight of the wrench in kilograms = W × g

Taken “g” on the moon is 1.16 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

=5.24 \mathrm{N} \times 9.81 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}=51.352 \mathrm{kg}

Weight of the wrench in kilograms is 51.352 kg.

Formula to calculate weight of the object on the moon is

\frac{\text {weight of the object on earth}}{9.81 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}} \times 1.16 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

Substitute the values given,

=\frac{51.352 \mathrm{kg}}{9.81 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}} \times 1.16 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

=5.234 \times 1.16

= 6.07 kg

Therefore, weight of the wrench on the moon is 6.07 kg.

A wire 25 m long carries a current of 12 A from west to east. If the magnetic force on the wire due to Earth’s magnetic field is
ra1l [238]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>1.33 x 10⁻ ⁴ T outwards.</em>

<em></em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The equation for the magnetic force (F) on a wire whose length is L and carrying a current I in a magnetic field (B) that is uniform is given by;

F = ILB sin θ          ---------------------(i)

Where;

θ = angle between the direction of the current and that of the magnetic field.

From the question,

F = 4.0 × 10⁻² N

I = 12A

L = 25m

θ = 90°

<em>Substitute these values into equation(i) and solve as follows;</em>

4.0 × 10⁻² = 12 x 25 x B x sin 90°

4.0 × 10⁻² = 300 x B x 1

4.0 × 10⁻² = 300B

0.04 = 300B

B = \frac{0.04}{300}

B = 0.000133

B = 1.33 x 10⁻ ⁴ T

To get the direction of the magnetic field, the right-hand rule is used.

If the right hand fingers are positioned in the correct order specified by the right hand rule, then it would be seen that the magnetic field is directed outwards.

Therefore, the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field at this location is <em>1.33 x 10⁻ ⁴ T outwards.</em>

A merry-go-round a.k.a "the spinny thing" is rotating at 15 RPM, and has a radius of 1.75 m
arlik [135]

Answer:

A.) 4 revolution

B.) 0.2 revolution

C.) 4 seconds

D.) 2.75 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a merry-go-round a.k.a "the spinny thing" is rotating at 15 RPM, and has a radius of 1.75 m

Solution

1 revolution = 2πr

Where r = 1.75m

A. How many revolutions will it make in 3 minutes?

(2π × 1.75) / 3

10.9955 / 3

3.665 RPM

Number of revolution = 15 / 3.665

Number of revolution = 4 revolution

B. How many revolutions will it make in 10.0 seconds?

First convert 10 seconds to minutes

10/60 = 0.167 minute

(2π × 1.75) / 0.167

10.9955 / 0.167

65.973

Number of revolution = 15 / 65.973

Number of revolution = 0.2 revolution

C. How long does it take for a person to make 1 complete revolution?

15 = 1 / t

Make t the subject of formula

t = 1/15

t = 0.0667 minute

t = 4 seconds

D. What is the velocity in m/s of person standing on its edge?

Velocity in m/ s will be:

Velocity = (15 × 2pi × r) / 60

Velocity = 164.9334 / 60

Velocity = 2.75 m/s
