You have a horizontal cathode ray tube (CRT) for which the controls have been adjusted such that the electron beam should make a

single spot of light exactly in the center of the screen. You observe however that the spot is deflected to the right. It is possible that the CRT is broken. But as a clever scientist you realize that your laboratory might be in teh middle of a electric or magnetic field. Assuming that you do not have a compass, anymagnets, or any charged rods, how do you use the CRT itself to determine if the CRT is broken, in an electric field, or in a magnetic field?You cannot remove the CRT from the room>

Answer:

Explanation:

Rotate it slowly to establish whether the spot moves. If it is broken, it will stay as it is. By rotating it the electrons' path to the centre of the screen will be tilted to another position by any external disturbing field.

A 5.00-g bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 320 m/s. the expanding gases behind it exert what force on the bull
muminat

Answer;

= 312 Newtons

Explanation;

The bullet has a mass of 0.005 kg, and a velocity of 320 m/s, so we need to find it's final kinetic energy.  

KE = 1/2*m*v^2

      = 1/2*0.005*320^2

      = 256 Joules.  

Divide this by the distance over which this energy was received and you have the force that provided that energy.  

  = 256/0.820 = 312.195 Newtons  

Rounded off, this is 312 N

) a stone is dropped from the top of a cliff. It is seen to hit the ground below after 3.55 s. How high is the cliff?
Agata [3.3K]

We use kinematic equation of motion,

S =ut+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2

Here, s is distance traveled, u is the initial velocity, t is time taken and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Given, t =3.55 s.

We take,  u = 0 because stone has no initial velocity.

Therefore,

S = 0 \times t + \frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times (3.55)^2 s = 61.75 \ m

Thus,  the height of cliff is approximately 61.75 m.

Sunspots change in number and location during the solar cycle. This phenomenon is connected to
skad [1K]

Answer:

Continuously changing magnetic field of the Sun

Explanation:

The Sun is made up of plasma and is not solid like our planet. When it rotates the whole of the Sun doesn't rotate with same speed. The equatorial part completes the rotation in just 25 days whereas the poles do it in 35 days. Due to this the magnetic field lines entangle and reorganize them regularly.

The places where the field line exit and enter the surface of the Sun, temperature drops by around 1000 K thus these spots appear black in color and are known as Sun spots.

The magnetic field is not permanent as it will keep changing due to differential rotation. This will result in the change in the no. of location of Sun spots.

If we track the no. of sunspots visible with respect to years we will notice that they follow a cycle of 10.6 years. This is known as Solar cycle in which there comes a solar minima when we see very few sunspots. When it is solar maxima we can see more than 100 sunspots.
