Answer:

32 bottles

Explanation:

If we create a free body diagram on the child we have his weight and the bouyant force

W-B=0

They must be equal to mantain equilibrium on the body and he can stay floating, this force is equivalent to the weight of water displaced

W=B=Ww

Mg=mg

32 kg=mass of water displaced

1 kilogram per liter (kg/L) is the density of water, this means that 32 Liters of water are displaced and since the bottles can retain 1 liter, the child needs 32 bottles

Faraday's Law states that the negative of the time rate of change of the flux of the magnetic field through a surface is equal t
MrRa [10]

Answer:

(C). The line integral of the magnetic field around a closed loop

Explanation:

Faraday's law states that induced emf is directly proportional to the time rate of change of magnetic flux.

This can be written mathematically as;

EMF = -\frac{\delta \phi _B}{\delta t}

(\frac{\delta \phi _B}{\delta t} ) is the rate of change of the magnetic flux through a surface bounded by the loop.

ΔФ = BA

where;

ΔФ is change in flux

B is the magnetic field

A is the area of the loop

Thus, according to Faraday's law of electric generators

∫BdL = \frac{\delta \phi _B}{\delta t} = EMF

Therefore, the line integral of the magnetic field around a closed loop is equal to the negative of the rate of change of the magnetic flux through the area enclosed by the loop.

The correct option is "C"

(C). The line integral of the magnetic field around a closed loop

What kind of organisms are able to convert sunlight into usable energy?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Photosynthetic organisms

Explanation:

The electromagnetic energy of sunlight is converted to chemical energy in the chlorophyll-containing cells of photosynthetic organisms. In eukaryotic cells these reactions occur in the organelle known as the chloroplast

(a) Write the energy equation for an elastic collision. (b) For an inelastic collision.
velikii [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

(a) Elastic collision: When there is no loss of energy during the collision, then the collision is said to be elastic collision.

In case of elastic collision, the momentum is conserved, the kinetic energy is conserved and all the forces are conservative in nature.

The momentum of the system before collision = the momentum of system after collision

The kinetic energy of the system before collision = the kinetic energy after the collision

(b) Inelastic collision: When there is some loss of energy during the collision, then the collision is said to be inelastic collision.

In case of inelastic collision, the momentum is conserved, the kinetic energy is not conserved, the total mechanical energy is conserved and all the forces or some of the forces are non conservative in nature.

The momentum of the system before collision = the momentum of system after collision

The total mechanical energy of the system before collision = total mechanical of the system after the collision
