5N of force is applied to move a large nail a distance of 10 cm from an electromagnet on a frictionless table. The nail is then

released. What is the best description of the change from potential to kinetic energy as the nail moves back toward the electromagnet?
A) All of the energy is kinetic as soon as the nail is released.
B) The rate of change from potential to kinetic energy is constant.
C) The rate of change from potential to kinetic energy is exponential.
D) The kinetic energy is 25 J when the nail is 5 cm from the electromagnet.

Answer:

C) The rate of change from potential to kinetic energy is exponential.

Explanation:

As we know that total mechanical energy must be conserved here

As we know that there is no friction force on this system of electromagnet and nail

So here we can say that that

Magnetic potential energy of the nail + electromagnet system will convert into kinetic energy of the nail as it is released.

So we will have

Initial potential energy = work done to move it away by 10 cm

U = 5(0.10)

U = 0.5 J

now as the nail is released then this potential energy will start to convert into kinetic energy

So here correct answer must be

C) The rate of change from potential to kinetic energy is exponential.

An object floats in a beaker as shown. when it was put into the beaker, it displaced an amount of water into the graduated cylin
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

answer is  C. 10 g

Explanation:

: When an object floats, it displaces an amount of water that has the same mass as itself. Therefore, the mass of the water in the graduated cylinder is equal to the mass of the object. We can see that there are 10 mL of water in the graduated cylinder. We also know that the density of water is 1 g/mL. Since each mL of water has a mass of 1 g, then 10 mL of water has a mass of 10 g. If the mass of the displaced water is 10 g, then the mass of the floating object is also 10 g.

As SCUBA divers go deeper underwater, the pressure from the weight of all the water above them increases tremendously which comp
slavikrds [6]

Answer: A.

As a diver rises, the pressure on their body decreases which allows the volume of the gas to decrease.

Explanation:

The problem is that a diver, experiences an increased pressure of water compresses nitrogen and more of it dissolves into the body. Just as there is a natural nitrogen saturation point at the surface, there are saturation points under water. Those depend on the depth, the type of body tissue involved, and also how long a diver is exposed to the extra pressure. The deeper a diver go, the more nitrogen the body absorbs.

The problem is getting rid of the nitrogen once you ascend again. As the pressure diminishes, nitrogen starts dissolving out of the tissues of the diver's body, a process called "off-gassing." That results in tiny nitrogen bubbles that then get carried to the lungs and breathed out. However, if there is too much nitrogen and/or it is released too quickly, small bubbles can combine to form larger bubbles, and those can do damage to the body, anything from minor discomforts all the way to major problems and even death.

A transformer consists of 290 primary windings and 824 secondary windings. Part A: If the potential difference across the primar
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Part 1) Voltage in secondary windings is 61.08 Volts

Part 2) Current in secondary windings is 0.53 Amperes

Explanation:

The potential developed in the primary and secondary winding of a transformer are related as

\frac{N_{p}}{N_{s}}=\frac{V_{p}}{V_{s}}

where

Np no of turns in primary coil

Ns no of turns in secondary coil

Vp Voltage of turns in primary coil

Vs Voltage of turns in secondary coil

Applying values in the formula we get

\frac{290}{824}=\frac{21.5}{V_{s}}\\\\\therefore V_{s}=21.5\times \frac{824}{290}=61.08V

Part 2)

Using Ohm's law the current is given by

I=\frac{V_{s}}{R}\\\\I=\frac{61.089}{115}=0.53A
