If a permanent magnet is dropped or struck by a hammer, it may loose it's magnetism. Explain why.

1 answer:

8 0

This is because strong vibrations will affect the alignment of the magnetic domains within the magnetic material. The domains would change the alignment thus affecting the strength of the magnets which solely depends on the alignment of the domains. The strength of a magnet is the sum of the magnetic fields of all the domains in the magnet. Therefore, the net result will be a weaker magnet or the magnet loosing its magnetism.

The speed v of a sound wave traveling in a medium that has bulk modulus b and mass density ρ (mass divided by the volume) is v=b

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

As it is given that Bulk modulus and density related to velocity of sound

$v = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho}}$

by rearranging the equation we can say

$B = \rho * v^2$

now we need to find the SI unit of Bulk modulus here

we can find it by plug in the units of density and speed here

$B = \frac{kg}{m^3} * (\frac{m}{s})^2$

so SI unit will be

$B = \frac{kg}{m* s^2}$

SO above is the SI unit of bulk Modulus

A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the sun. its closest approach to the sun is a distance of 4.5 1010 m (inside the orbit

barxatty [35]

r1 = 5*10^10 m , r2 = 6*10^12 m

v1 = 9*10^4 m/s

From conservation of energy

K1 +U1 = K2 +U2

0.5mv1^2 - GMm/r1 = 0.5mv2^2 - GMm/r2

0.5v1^2 - GM/r1 = 0.5v2^2 - GM/r2

M is mass of sun = 1.98*10^30 kg

G = 6.67*10^-11 N.m^2/kg^2

0.5*(9*10^4)^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(5*10^10)) = 0.5v2^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(6*10^12))

v2 = 5.35*10^4 m/s

What kind of friction occurs as a fish swims through water?

Paul [167]

It must be sliding friction, because the fish is already in motion.

3. (Solids, Liquids) have no definite shape, but definite volume.<br> A)Solids <br> B)Liquids

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

b liquids

Explanation:

this is because liquids take the shape of their container while solids stay solid and do not change shape and solids, liquids and gases all have definite volume.
