Answer: C.The filings will be clustered more densely where the field is weakest.

Lol this is pretty easy haha im on the same question... Because this is obviously false, where the magnetic field is weakest it wont have clusters of fillings. The fillings would be more scattered around. No duh

The answer would be D. Because the iron fillings are attracted to the magnet underneath the glass.

zimovet [89]

The old style (incandescent) light bulb converts more energy
into heat than it does into light. If you're using it mainly as a
source of light, then it's a bummer, and its efficiency is very low.
BUT ... if you're using an incandescent light bulb as a heater, then
its efficiency is much better. It all depends on your point of view.

skad [1K]

Answer:

the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that;

The terminal velocity is proportional to the square root of weight.

v ∝ √W

v = k√W

the proportionality constant depends upon the surface area and the density of the medium (like air). The coffee filters can be stacked such that the resulting area is roughly unchanged. So, the constant of proportionality k is also unchanged

v/√W = constant

v₂/√W₂ = v₁/√W₁

v₂ = v₁√(W₂ / W₁ )

given that;

v₁ = 0.856 m/s,

W₂ = 14W₁; meaning 14 coffee filters have 14 times the weight of a single coffee filter

so we substitute

v₂ = 0.856 √(14W₁ / W₁ )

v₂ = 0.856 √( 14( W₁/W₁)

v₂ = 0.856 √( 14(1)

v₂ = 0.856 √( 14 )

v₂ = 0.856 × 3.741657

v₂ = 3.2 m/s

Therefore, the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s

If an object is thrown upward at 128 feet per second from a height of 76 feet, its height S after t seconds is given by the foll

faltersainse [42]

<h2>a) Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward</h2><h2>b) Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward</h2>

Explanation:

a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²

s(0) = 76 + 128 x 0 − 16 x 0² = 76 ft

s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft

Displacement in 4 seconds = 332 - 76 = 256 ft

Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

$\texttt{Velocity = }\frac{256}{4}=64ft/s$

Average velocity in first 4 seconds is 64 ft/s upward

a) Given S(t) = 76 + 128t − 16t²

s(4) = 76 + 128 x 4 − 16 x 4² = 332 ft

s(8) = 76 + 128 x 8 − 16 x 8² = 78 ft

Displacement in 4 seconds = 78 - 332 = -254 ft

Time = 4 - 0 = 4 s

$\texttt{Velocity = }\frac{-254}{4}=-63.5ft/s$

Average velocity in second 4 seconds is 63.5 ft/s downward

The mass of a meteoroid was found to be 1.24 × 107 kilograms. Write the mass in standard notation.

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The value we are given in the question is 1.24 * 10^7. This form of writing number is called scientific notation. The standard notation is the normal, regular way of writing numbers. Scientific notation and standard notations are interchangeable.

1.24 * 10^7 written in standard notation will be = 1.24 * 10000000 = 12400000.

Thus, the mass of the meteoroid was 12400000 kg.
