What appliances use electromagnets
Svetlanka [38]
Electromagnets are used in home appliances quite regularly and are used even in simple home appliances. Common home appliances that use electromagnets are toasters, printers, and microwave ovens. Electromagnets are a certain type of magnet that does not function unless an electrical current flows through it. These appliances create the magnetic field by flowing electricity through certain parts of the appliance.

If the car has a mass of 0.4 kg, the ratio of height to width of the ramp is 19/85, the initial displacement is 1.9 m, and the c
Rasek [7]

Answer:

final displacement lf  = 0.39 m

Explanation:

from change in momentum equation:

\delta p = m \sqrt(2g * y/x)* [\sqrt li + \sqrt lf]

given: m = 0.4kg, y/x = 19/85, li = 1.9 m,

\delta p = 1.27 kg*m/s.

putting all value to get the final displacement value

1.27 = 0.4\sqrt(2*9.81 *(19/85))* [\sqrt 1.9 + \sqrt lf]

final displacement lf  = 0.39 m

The weight of an object is measured in air to be 7.0 N. The
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Buoyant force = 3.0 N

The object will not float.

Explanation:

Apparent weight of a body immersed in water is the actual weight of object minus buoyant force

Given in the question that;

Weight of object in air = 7.0 N

Apparent weight of object = 4.0 N

4.0 N = 7.0 N - Buoyant force

Buoyant force = 7.0 - 4.0 = 3.0 N

In this case, the buoyant force is less than weight of the object thus the object will sink.

3. When does the iron core in an electromagnet become magnetic?​
rosijanka [135]

Answer: When electricity flows through it.

Explanation:

The electromagnet exhibits magnetic properties only as soon as current flows through the nucleus. Namely, the electric current in the space around the electrical conductor through which it passes creates a magnetic field. Unlike a permanent magnet, which has a permanent property of magnetism, the electromagnet is a temporary magnet because the magnetic field also disappears when the current ceases.
