Answer:

1. Burning coal contributes to sulfur aerosols in the stratosphere; these sulfur aerosols have moderated global warming.

Explanation:

Sulfur aerosols both absorb as well as scatter solar radiation coming from the sun , thus saving the earth from getting wormed up . In this way it has moderating effect on the global warming . This is also called global dimming effect. Less of the solar radiation is able to reach earth surface due to these aerosol.

Which electromagnet will produce the strongest magnetic force? (1 point)

Contact [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Y will produce the strongest magnetic force because the current intensity is medium and it has 50 turns in the wire. the number of turns will increase the force because the magnetic field will be more concentrated.

Answer:

Speed = 575 m/s

Mechanical energy is conserved in electrostatic, magnetic and gravitational forces.

Explanation:

Given :

Potential difference, U = $-3.45 \times 10^{-3} \ V$

Mass of the alpha particle, $m_{\alpha} = 6.68 \times 10^{-27} \ kg$

Charge of the alpha particle is, $q_{\alpha} = 3.20 \times 10^{-19} \ C$

So the potential difference for the alpha particle when it is accelerated through the potential difference is

$U=\Delta Vq_{\alpha}$

And the kinetic energy gained by the alpha particle is

$K.E. =\frac{1}{2}m_{\alpha}v_{\alpha}^2$

From the law of conservation of energy, we get

$K.E. = U$

$\frac{1}{2}m_{\alpha}v_{\alpha}^2 = \Delta V q_{\alpha}$

$v_{\alpha} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \Delta V q_{\alpha}}{m_{\alpha}}}$

$v_{\alpha} = \sqrt{\frac{2(3.45 \times 10^{-3 })(3.2 \times 10^{-19})}{6.68 \times 10^{-27}}}$

$v_{\alpha} \approx 575 \ m/s$

The mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of the following conservative forces :

-- electrostatic forces

-- magnetic forces

-- gravitational forces

A ball of mass 2 kg is kept on the hill of height 3 km. Calculate the potential energy possessed by it ?

zysi [14]

We know that -

$P.E=m*g*h$

Where,

$m = mass$

$g = acceleration$ $due$ $to$ $gravity$

$h=height$

First we convert height into meters.

1 km = 1000 meters

3 km = 1000 * 3 meters = 3000 meters

So, putting the values in the above formula, and by taking 'g' = 9.8 m/s², we get-

$P.E.= 2*3000*9.8$

$P.E.= 58800$ $Joules$

$P.E.= 58.8$ $kJ$
