If the current in a wire is directed upward, what is the direction of the magnetic field produced by the current?
Valentin [98]

Answer:

B. counterclockwise

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the right-hand rule:

- put your thumb finger of the right hand in the same direction of the current in the wire (upward)

- wrap the other fingers around the thumb

- the direction of the other fingers will give the direction of the magnetic field lines

By doing these steps, we see that the other fingers form concentric circles in a counterclockwise direction (seen from above), so this is the direction of the magnetic field lines.

Two common ions of manganese are Mn2+ and Mn3+. Which binary ionic compound is likely to form? A) Mn2N3 B) MnBr4 C) MnCl D) MnO
meriva
Given that Oxygen has an oxidation state of  2 -, you can combine Mn 3+ with O 2- ions to form Mn2O3, and you can combine Mn 2+ with O 2- to form Mn2O2 which is MnO.

The other compounds imply oxidation states of N, Br and Cl that does not exist.

Therefore, the answer is the option D. MnO

What is the relationship between a photons energy and its wavelength?
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency and thus, equivalently, is inversely proportional to the wavelength. The higher the photon's frequency, the higher its energy. Equivalently, the longer the photon's wavelength, the lower its energy.

How much work is needed to pump all the water out of a cylindrical tank with a height of 10 m and a radius of 5 m
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Explanation:

volume of water being lifted

= π r² h , where r is radius of cylinder and h is height of cylinder

= 3.14 x5² x 10

= 785 m³

mass of water = 785 x 10³ kg

mass of this much of water is lifted so that its centre of mass is lifted by height

10 / 2 = 5m .

So work done = mgh , m is mass of water , h is displacement of centre of mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

= 785 x 10³ x 9.8 x 5

= 38.465 x 10⁶ J
