a plasma is a hot ionized gas consisting of equal numbers and positively charged ions and negativly charged electrons. the characterisitcs of plasma are different from those of oirdinary gases so plama is consideres the fourth state of matter

Plasma is a state of matter that is often thought of as a subset of gases, but the two states behave very differently. Like gases, plasma's have no fixed shape or volume, and are less dense than solids or liquids.May 5, 2016

In other words, plasma was first identified in a Crookes tube, and so described by Sir William Crookes in 1879 (he called it "radiant matter"). The nature of this "cathode ray" matter was subsequently identified by British physicist Sir J.J. Thomson in 1897. The term "plasma" was coined by Irving Langmuir in 1928.

A circular loop of flexible iron wire has an initial circumference of 165cm , but its circumference is decreasing at a constant

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

emf induced is 0.005445 V and direction is clockwise because we can see area is decrease and so that flux also decrease so using right hand rule direction of current here clockwise

Explanation:

Given data

initial circumference = 165 cm

rate = 12.0 cm/s

magnitude = 0.500 T

tome = 9 sec

to find out

emf induced and direction

solution

we know emf in loop is - d∅/dt ........1

here ∅ = ( BAcosθ)

so we say angle is zero degree and magnetic filed is uniform here so that

emf = - d ( BAcos0) /dt

emf = - B dA /dt ..............2

so area will be

dA/dt = d(πr²) / dt

dA/dt = 2πr dr/dt

we know 2πr = c,

r = c/2π = 165 / 2π

r = 26.27 cm

c is circumference so from equation 2

emf = - B 2πr dr/dt ................3

and

here we find rate of change of radius that is

dr/dt = 12/2π = 1.91 $10^{-2}$ cm/s

so when 9.0s have passed that radius of coil = 26.27 - 191 (9)

radius = 9.08 $10^{-2}$ cm

so now from equation 3 we find emf

emf = - (0.500 ) 2π(9.08 $10^{-2}$ ) 1.91 $10^{-2}$

emf = - 0.005445

and magnitude of emf = 0.005445 V

emf induced is 0.005445 V and direction is clockwise because we can see area is decrease and so that flux also decrease so using right hand rule direction of current here clockwise

The throwing back by a wall or barrier of a sound wave without absorbing<br> it. *<br> 1 point

Semenov [28]

Answer:Reflection

Explanation:

The throwing back of a sound wave without absorbing it is called reflection

In acoustic reflection of sound is termed as echo i.e. sound arrived at the listener after a particular delay depending upon the position of barrier to the observer.

The reflection of sound is used in many devices like megaphone, trumpets, etc. It is also used in auditorium such that the ceiling of the auditorium is curved for multiple reflections of sound so that sound can be reached at every corner of the auditorium.

A ball hits a wall horizontally at 6m/s and rebounces at 4.4m/s the ball is in contact with wall for 0.04 sec. what is the accel

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 6 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 4.4 m/s

Time taken (t) = 0.04sec

Find:

Acceleration (a) = ?

Computation:

We know that,

⇒ v = u + at

⇒ a = (v - u) / t

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (4.4 - 6) / 0.04

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (-1.6) / 0.04

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

A penny is dropped from the Statue of Liberty

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

a) The velocity is 2.94m/s

b) 0.441

Explanation:

a) Assume gravity is 9.8m/s^2

Use the equation below to solve for the velocity at 0.30 seconds

$vf=vi+at$ ,

vf =unknown velocity vi= initial velocity vi=0m/s a= 9.8m/s^2 t=0.30seconds

Step 1: Substitute the variables with the knowns

$vf=0m/s+(9.8m/s^2)*0.30seconds$

Step 2: Solve

$vf=2.94m/s$

Use the equation below to solve for the displacement at 0.30 seconds

$x=vit+\frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

Step 1: Substitute the same variables with the knowns

$x=\frac{1}{2}*(9.8m/s^2)*(0.30seconds)^{2}$

Note that vi*t=0 as vi=0m/s

Step 2: Solve

x=0.441m
