The answer is : B. The compass will spin exactly 360 Degrees

Compass will point out to the earth's magnetic field. If we change the direction of the current , we created an effect which make the compass detect the magnetic field in the exact opposite direction, that is why it will flip exactly 180 degrees

A person walks first at a constant speed of 5.50 m/s along a straight line from point A to point B and then back along the line
Sav [38]

Answer:

4.25 m/s

Explanation:

They walked the first distance at 5.50 m/s, then the same distance at 3 m/s.

Since the distances are equal, the average speed is simply the average of 5.50 and 3.

(5.50 + 3) / 2 = 4.25

Her average speed over the entire trip is 4.25 m/s.

An inventor claims to have developed a power cycle having a thermal efficiency of 40%, while operating between hot and cold rese
lesya [120]

From Carnot's theorem, for any engine working between these two temperatures:


efficiency <= (1-tc/th) * 100


Given: tc = 300k (from question assuming it is not 5300 as it seems)

For a, th = 900k, efficiency = (1-300/900) = 70%

For b, th = 500k, efficiency = (1-300/500) = 40% 

For c, th = 375k, efficiency = (1-300/375) = 20% 


Hence in case of a and b, efficiency claimed is lesser than efficiency calculated, which is valid case and in case of c, however efficiency claimed is greater which is invalid.

A rock on the moon has a mass of 17kg, what is the mass if this same rock on earth?
NISA [10]

Mass is an intrinsic property of the rock.  The mass doesn't care where it is, and it makes no difference where the rock happens to be at the moment ... its mass doesn't change.

17kg of mass is 17kg .  If it's 17kg on the moon, it's <em>17kg</em> on Earth.
