Answer:

(a) 72°

(b) 40°

Explanation:

PENTAGON

First, we calculate the total angles in a Pentagon using:

180(n - 2)

Where n = number of sides of the polygon, in this case, 5.

Hence, the total angle in a polygon is

180(5 - 2) = 180 * 3 = 540°

Therefore, each angle will be:

540°/5 = 108°

Because the interior angle and exterior angle form a straight line (180°), the exterior angle of a regular pentagon will be:

180 - 108 = 72°

The exterior angle of a regular Pentagon is 72°

NONAGON

First, we calculate the total angles in a Nonagon using:

180(n - 2)

Where n = number of sides of the polygon, in this case, 9.

Hence, the total angle in a polygon is

180(9 - 2) = 180 * 7 = 1260°

Therefore, each angle will be:

1260°/9 = 140°

Because the interior angle and exterior angle form a straight line (180°), the exterior angle of a regular nonagon will be:

180 - 140 = 40°

The exterior angle of a regular Nonagon is 40°

A flux density of 1.2Wb/m^2 is required in the 1 mm air gap of an electromagnet having an iron path of length 1.5 m. Calculate t

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The mmf required is $1.125$ × $10^{-3}$ A

Explanation:

The Magnetomotive force (mmf) is given by the formula below

$F_{M} = Hl\\$

where $F_{M}$ is the Magnetomotive force (mmf)

$H$ is the Magnetic field strength

$l$ is the magnetic length

The magnetic permeability μ is given by

μ = $B / H$

Where $B$ is the Magnetic flux density

and $H$ is the Magnetic field strength

From the question,

$B$ = 1.2Wb/m^2

μ = 1600m

From μ = $B / H$

∴ $H = B/$ μ

$H = 1.2 / 1600\\$

$H = 7.5$ × $10^{-4}$ A/m

Now, for the Magnetomotive force (mmf)

$F_{M} = Hl\\$

From the question

$l$ = 1.5 m

∴ $F_{M} = 7.5$ × $10^{-4}$ × $1.5$

$F_{M} = 1.125$ × $10^{-3} A$

Hence, The mmf required is $1.125$ × $10^{-3}$ A

The interstellar clouds called molecular clouds are _________.

ira [324]

Answer:

nebulas and they are the cool clouds in which stars form

Explanation:

The stars are born by chance. Fragments of matter are gathered from the cool clouds of gas and dust that float in space, the so-called nebulas. These particles are added by gravitational attraction to form a large mass.

This conglomerate, due to the effect of gravity, contracts on itself and as a consequence increases in its center, density, pressure and heat. In this way, atoms move faster and collide with each other. Under these conditions, nuclear fusion reactions soon begin. When they start the star is born.
