Answer:

Option c

Explanation:

Magnetic field lines form loops starting from north pole to south pole outside the magnet and from south pole to north pole inside the magnet.

Thus the field is such that it is directed outwards from the North pole and directed inwards to the South pole of the magnet.

A compass in a magnetic field will will comply with the magnet's North pole directing towards the magnetic field.

How are energy and mass connected during the formation of an atom? Energy is absorbed, so the mass is increased. Energy is relea

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Energy is absorbed, so the mass is reduced.

Explanation:

The relationship between the mass and the energy is given by Einstein formula as :

$E=mc^2$

m is the mass of an atom

c is the speed of light

When an atom is formed, the energy gets absorbed. As a result mass will decrease as per Einstein's equation. So, the correct option is (c) "Energy is absorbed, so the mass is reduced".

A 1.0 kg copper rod rests on two horizontal rails 1.0 m apart and carries a current of 50 A from one rail to the other.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer

given,

mass of copper rod = 1 kg

horizontal rails = 1 m

Current (I) = 50 A

coefficient of static friction = 0.6

magnetic force acting on a current carrying wire is

F = B i L

Rod is not necessarily vertical

$F_x =i L B_d$

$F_y= i L B_w$

the normal reaction N = mg-F y

static friction f = μ_s (mg-F y )

horizontal acceleration is zero

$F_x-f = 0$

$iLBd = \mu_s(mg-F_y )$

B_w = B sinθ

B_d = B cosθ

iLB cosθ= μ_s (mg- iLB sinθ)

$B = \dfrac{\mu_smg}{i(cos\theta +\mu_s sin\theta)}$

$\theta =tan{-1}{\mu_s}$

$\theta =tan{-1}{0.6}$

$\theta = 31^0$

$B = \dfrac{0.6\times 1 \times 9.8}{50(cos31^0 +0.6 sin31^0)}$

B = 0.1 T

What is the acceleration of a car that goes from 0 to 20m/s in 7 seconds?

nadezda [96]

Answer:

2m/s^2

Explanation:

Clculate the acceleration:

V = u +at

20m/s = 0 + a*10s

a = 20m//10s

a = 2m/s²

From the data given , it is not possible to calculate the displacement , because no direction of motion is given

But it is possible to calculate the distance travelled

Distance = ut + ½ *a*t²

distance = 0 + ½ * 2m/s * 10²s

distance = 100m
