Answer:

introduction of new animals and crops to North America

Explanation:

Since the early 1500s, Europeans have transported old world species to their new settlements in the Western Hemisphere, as well as to other parts of the world. The manifestoes of Christopher Columbus' second and subsequent voyages, for example, mention the deliberate transportation of species considered potential crops and livestock. Global trade has grown astronomically since then, providing an opportunity for the corresponding growth of biological invasions. Consequently, biological invasions can be viewed as a predominantly post-Columbian event. Put in perspective, the movement of organisms caused by humans, accidentally or deliberately in the last 200 to 500 years, undoubtedly dwarfs in frequency and impact the movement of organisms by natural forces at any 500-year period in Earth's history.

A tug boat pulls a ship with a constant net horizontal force of 5.00•10*3 N and causes the ship to move through a harbor. How mu

Murljashka [212]

The work done on the ship is $1.5\cdot 10^7 J$

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

In this problem, we have:

$F=5.00\cdot 10^3 N$ (force acting on the ship)

d = 3.00 km = 3000 m (displacement of the ship)

$\theta=0^{\circ}$ (because the force is horizontal, and the displacement is horizontal as well)

Therefore, the work done on the ship is

$W=(5.00\cdot 10^3)(3000)(cos 0^{\circ})=1.5\cdot 10^7 J$

An electron is placed on a line connecting two fixed point charges of equal charge but the opposite sign. The distance between t

viktelen [127]

Answer:

a) F_net = 6.48 10⁻¹⁸ ( $\frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{1}{(0.300-x)^2}$ ), b) x = 0.15 m

Explanation:

a) In this problem we use that the electric force is a vector, that charges of different signs attract and charges of the same sign repel.

The electric force is given by Coulomb's law

F = $k \frac{q_2q_2}{r^2}$

Since when we have the two negative charges they repel each other and when we fear one negative and the other positive attract each other, the forces point towards the same side, which is why they must be added.

F_net= ∑ F = F₁ + F₂

let's locate a reference system in the load that is on the left side, the distances are

left side - electron r₁ = x

right side -electron r₂ = d-x

let's call the charge of the electron (q) and the fixed charge that has equal magnitude Q

we substitute

F_net = k q Q ( $\frac{1}{r_1^2}+ \frac{1}{r_2^2}$ )

F _net = kqQ ( $\frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{1}{(d-x)^2}$ )

let's substitute the values

F_net = 9 10⁹ 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 4.50 10⁻⁹ ( $\frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{1}{(0.30-x)^2}$ )

F_net = 6.48 10⁻¹⁸ ( $\frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{1}{(0.300-x)^2}$ )

now we can substitute the value of x from 0.05 m to 0.25 m, the easiest way to do this is in a spreadsheet, in the table the values of the distance (x) and the net force are given

x (m) F (N)

0.05 27.0 10-16

0.10 8.10 10-16

0.15 5.76 10-16

0.20 8.10 10-16

0.25 27.0 10-16

b) in the adjoint we can see a graph of the force against the distance, it can be seen that it has the shape of a parabola with a minimum close to x = 0.15 m

A solenoidal coil with 26 turns of wire is wound tightly around another coil with 350 turns. The inner solenoid is 20.0 cm long

noname [10]

Answer:

Part a)

$\phi = 2.76 \times 10^{-7} T m^2$

Part B)

$M = 5.52 \times 10^{-5} H$

Part C)

$EMF = 0.1 V/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

Magnetic field due to a long ideal solenoid is given by

$B = \mu_0 n i$

n = number of turns per unit length

$n = \frac{N}{L}$

$n = \frac{350}{0.20}$

$n = 1750 turn/m$

now we know that magnetic field due to solenoid is

$B = (4\pi \times 10^{-7})(1750)(0.100)$

$B = 2.2 \times 10^{-4} T$

Now magnetic flux due to this magnetic field is given by

$\phi = B.A$

$\phi = (2.2 \times 10^{-4})(\pi r^2)$

$\phi = (2.2 \times 10^{-4})(\pi(0.02)^2)$

$\phi = 2.76 \times 10^{-7} T m^2$

Part B)

Now for mutual inductance we know that

$\phi_{total} = M i$

$\phi_{total} = N\phi$

$\phi_{total} = 20(2.76 \times 10^{-4})$

$\phi_{total} = 5.52 \times 10^{-6}$

now we have

$M = \frac{5.52 \times 10^{-6}}{0.100}$

$M = 5.52 \times 10^{-5} H$

Part C)

As we know that induced EMF is given as

$EMF = M \frac{di}{dt}$

$EMF = 5.52 \times 10^{-5} (1800)$

$EMF = 0.1 V/s$

Does gravity have an effect on the potential difference of a battery?

Sonja [21]

Answer: The correct answer is "No".

Explanation:

Gravity: It is the force which causes object to fall on the earth. It is the force which attracts bodies towards each other.

Potential difference: It is defined as the potential acting between the two points. The work done in moving the unit positive charge from one location to the another location.

The potential difference in battery is caused by the electrodes. There are two terminals in battery: Negative terminal which is at lower potential and Positive terminal which is at higher potential. It forces the electrons to flow in the circuit which constitutes the current.

The gravity and the potential difference have no relation between them.

Therefore, gravity have no effect on the potential difference of a battery.

BartSMP [9]

For a wave is described by y=0.0200 sin (kx - ωt) , where , ω = 3.62 rad/s, x and y are in meters, and t is in seconds, the wavelength = 2.978

<h3>How to solve for the wavelength</h3>

What is wave speed?

This is used to refer to the speed at which a wave is moving. It is the product of frequency and wave number

Given data

y=0.0200 sin (kx - ωt)

ω = 3.62 rad/s

y are in meters

t is in seconds

k = 2.11 rad/m

k = wavenumber = 2 * pi / wavelength

wavelength = 2 * pi / wavenumber

wavelength = 2 * pi / 2.11

wavelength = 2.978
