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

El. A horizontally directed force of 40 N is used to pull a box a distance of 2.5 m across a tabletop. How much work is done by
PIT_PIT [208]

The same formula of work can be applied to all the questions. The answers are:

E1. 100J

E2. 40N

E3. 5m

E4. a.) 360 J           b.) 240 J               c.) 120 J

El. If a horizontally directed force of 40 N is used to pull a box a distance of 2.5 m across a tabletop. The formula to get the much work that will be done by the 40 - N force will be

Work done = force x distance

Work done = 40 x 2.5

Work done = 100 J

E2. If a woman does 160 J of work to move a table 4 m across the floor. We will use the same formula to calculate the magnitude of the force that the woman applied to the table assuming the force is applied in the horizontal direction.

Work done = force x distance

160 = 4F

F = 160/4

Force F = 40 N

E3. Given that a force of 60 N used to push a chair across a room does 300 J of work. Same formula to get how far the chair move in this process.

Work done = force x distance

300 = 60 x distance

distance = 300/60

Distance = 5 m

Therefore, the chair moved 5m away.

E4. Given that a rope applies a horizontal force of 180 N to pull a crate a distance of 2 m across the floor. And a frictional force of 120 N opposes this motion.

a. The work done by the force applied by the rope can  be found by

W = F x S

W = 180 x 2

W = 360 J

b. What is the work done by the frictional force?

W = F_{r} x s

W = 120 x 2

W = 240 J

c. What is the total work done on the crate?

W = (F - F_{r}) x distance

Where  F_{r}  = frictional force

Substitute all the parameters

W = (180 - 120) x 2

W = 60 x 2

W = 120 J

A spring of force constant 285.0 N/m and unstretched length 0.230 m is stretched by two forces, pulling in opposite directions a
Kaylis [27]

Answer: W = 0.3853 J, e = 0.052 m

Explanation: Given that,

K =285.0N/M , L = 0.230m , F = 15N , e = ?

F = Ke

15 = 285 × e

e = 15÷ 285

e =0.052 m

e + L = 0.052 + 0.230

= 0.282m ( spring new length )

Work needed to stretch the spring

W = 1/2ke2

W = 1/2 × 285 x 0.052 × 0.052

W = 0.3853 J

Where does a phase change occur
il63 [147K]
A phase change is occuring; the liquid water is changing to gaseous water, or steam. On a molecular level, the intermolecular forces between the water molecules are decreasing. The heat is providing enough energy for the water molecules to overcome these attractive forces.

What observations can the geologist make by working outdoors instead of in a lab?
vredina [299]

Answer:

Geology is the study of the Earth that involves the process at Earth, materials of which it is made, and its history.

<u>Geologists combine both laboratory and field data to illustrate the results of their research. Some observations that can the geologist make by working outdoors instead of in a lab are as follows:</u>

  • Understanding and exploring the earth's surface closely using geophysical tools.
  • Collecting samples by own and make some interpretations at the same time.
  • Observation of the  landscapes
  • Close observation of outcrops

What is an intraplate quake? What causes them?
Anastasy [175]
 intraplate earthquake<span> occurs in the interior of a </span>tectonic plate, basically its a lower version of an earth quake but just less damage. The cause of them is the two tectonic plate hitting each other or i should say sliding togather.
