Explanation:

A current flowing in a wire creates a magnetic field around the wire.

This concept is used in an electromagnet.

Wrap a wire around the iron nail and turned into a coil and then connect it to a battery. This system is called an electromagnet.

By adding the more turns to the coil or increasing the current in the coil, you can make an electromagnet more stronger.

Iron is used in an electromagnet as it easily gain magnetic properties. When the current is flowing in the coil then it will be easily gain magnetic properties and when the current is stopped then it will loose magnetic properties.

Discuss the force that exists between the Earth and the moon by referring to the mass of each.
Fudgin [204]
The word gravity is used to describe the gravitational pull (force) an object experiences on or near the surface of a planet or moon. The gravitational force is a force that attracts objects with mass towards each other. Any object with mass exerts a gravitational force on any other object with mass.

Water is drawn from a well in a bucket tied to the end of a rope whose other end wraps around a solid cylinder of mass 50 kg and
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

\alpha=78.4\ rad.s^{-2}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of solid cylinder, m=50\ kg
  • diameter of cylinder, d=0.25\ m
  • mass of bucket of water, m_w=20\ kg

<em>When the bucket is released to fall in the well, it fall under the acceleration due to gravity.</em>

We have formula for angular acceleration as:

\alpha=\frac{g}{r}

where:

g = acceleration due to gravity

r = radius of the cylinder

\aplha=\frac{9.8}{0.125}

\alpha=78.4\ rad.s^{-2}
