Answer: 14400 N

Explanation:

Weight of an object is the force acting on an object on the center of the body by gravity.

weight=mass\times acceleratio

Given mass= 1470 kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.80m/s^2

Putting in the values we get,

weight=1470kg\times 9.80m/s^2=14400kgms^{-2}=14400N

1kgms^{-2}=1Newton(N)

thus weight of the object is 14400 Newton

Weight  = Mass * gravity

             =  1470* 9.8 = 14406 N  ≈ 14,400 N

Answer: A. Radiation can move through empty space to transfer heat; conduction cannot.  

Now unlike convection and conduction, radiation does not require matter to transfer heat. It also does not require a medium to transfer heat, crossing off the other options regardless.

I hope this helps!

You are to assume the role of each of the following members of a community;
Kay [80]
As a doctor in the local hospital, I would have to deal with teenagers being sick and brought into the hospital. Binge drinking may cause alcohol poisoning, especially since teenagers will more or less take in more than their bodies can handle at a given time. Being brought to the hospital would mean that they would be missing school at best, or will result to death, at worst.

As a commander of the local police, alcohol would be a factor to the rising delinquency rates among the youth. Under the influence of alcohol, teenagers may be pushed to do illegal things like vandalism, drug use, and many more, since they would not be thinking straight. I would have to deal with the capturing of these delinquents.

As a youth worker, it is my job to make sure that the youth are growing up in the right environment. Considering that if the youth has been involved with the police or has been sent to the hospital from binge drinking, it will show that these particular members of the youth have made poor choices in life. When left unguided, it may result to even worse situations in the future. Youth sent to the police may need extra care since they have already shown signs of delinquency, and may not listen to higher authorities.

As a school principal, it is my job to make sure that these kids are getting the education they need to help mold their futures. If one of my students have been caught binge drinking and suffering from the effects of it, it would hinder them from getting the education that they need. Worse, when a student decides from drop out from school because of addiction to alcohol, it would be my job to get them back on track.

A 37.9 A current flows in a long, straight wire. Find the strength of the resulting magnetic field at a distance of 45.5 cm from
Damm [24]

Answer:

1.67\cdot 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by the equation:

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

where:

\mu_0=4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} H/m is the vaacuum permeability

I is the current in the wire

r is the distance from the wire

The direction of the magnetic field lines is tangential to concentric circles around the wire.

In this problem, we have:

I=37.9 A is the current in the wire

r=45.5 cm = 0.455 m is the distance  from the wire

Solving for B, we find the magnitude of the magnetic field:

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}=\frac{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7})(37.9)}{2\pi (0.455)}=1.67\cdot 10^{-5} T
