Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we place two objects of different temperature adjacent to each other then there will occur transfer of heat from hotter object to colder object till their temperature becomes equal.

This process is known as conduction.

Hence, when heat is being transferred from surface to the underground then it is due to the process of conduction.

Convection is defined as the process in which a fluid (liquid or gas) when heated then more dense (cooler) substance sinks ate the bottom whereas less dense (hotter) substance will rises at the top.

Radiation is defined as a process in which an electromagnetic energy will travel through space in the form of waves or particles.

Condensation is a process in which vapor state of a substance changes into liquid state.

Thus, we can conclude that heat from the surface is transferred underground by conduction.

Answer:

3. When the number of turns, N is doubled, the strength of the electromagnet is also doubled

4. Doubling the voltage, doubles the strength of the electromagnet

5. The number of paper clips a 7.5 V battery would pick is approximately 28 paper clips

The number of paper clips a 7.5 V battery would pick is 59 paperclips

6. For the 50-coil electromagnet, the average number of paper clips a 1 V battery would pick is approximately 7 paperclips

For the 50-coil electromagnet, the average number of paper clips a 1 V battery would pick is 16 paperclips

Explanation:

3. The Magnetomotive Force, MMF = The Number of Turns on the Coil, N × The Current I Flowing in the Coil, I

∴ MMF = N × I

When the number of turns, N is doubled, the magnetomotive force, MMF is also doubled, and the strength of the electromagnet is doubled

4. Given that the voltage, V applied to the coil = The current, I flowing × The resistance, R of the coil, we have

V = I × R

Therefore, for a given constant resistance in the coil, doubling the voltage, doubles the current and therefore doubles the strength of the electromagnet

5. The average slope for the 25-coil electromagnet = (23 - 12)/(6 - 3) = 3. $\bar 6$

The number of paper clips a 7.5 V battery would pick = 12 + (7.5 - 3) × 11/3 = 28.5 paperclips ≈ 28 paper clips

The average slope for the 50-coil electromagnet = (48 - 26)/(6 - 3) = 7. $\bar 3$

The number of paper clips a 7.5 V battery would pick = 26 + (7.5 - 3) × 22/3 = 59 paperclips

6. The slope calculated from a start point of approximately 0.4 V, is given as follows;

The slope for the 25-coil electromagnet = (12 - 6)/(3 - 0.4) = 30/13

Therefore, for the 25-coil electromagnet, the average number of paper clips a 1 V battery would pick = 6 + (1 - 0.4) × 30/13) = 96/13 ≈ 7 paperclips

The slope for the 50-coil electromagnet = (26 - 13)/(3 - 0.4) = 5

Therefore, for the 50-coil electromagnet, the average number of paper clips a 1 V battery would pick = 13 + (1 - 0.4) × 5 = 16 paperclips

A 100-g toy car is propelled by a compressed spring that starts it moving. the car follows a curved track. what is the final spe

wel

Answer:

0.687 m/s

Explanation:

Initial energy = final energy

1/2 mu² = mgh + 1/2 mv²

1/2 u² = gh + 1/2 v²

Given u = 2.00 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s², and h = 0.180 m:

1/2 (2.00 m/s)² = (9.8 m/s²) (0.180 m) + 1/2 v²

v = 0.687 m/s

Z. A force that gives a 8-kg objet an acceleration of 1.6 m/s^2 would give a 2-kg object an

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf D.\ 6.4\ m/s^2}}$

Explanation:

We need to find the acceleration of the 2 kilogram object. Let's complete this in 2 steps.

<h3>1. Force of 1st Object </h3>

First, we can find the force of the first, 8 kilogram object.

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration.

$F=m \times a$

The mass of the object is 8 kilograms and the acceleration is 1.6 meters per square second.

m= 8 kg
a= 1.6 m/s²

Substitute these values into the formula.

$F= 8 \ kg * 1.6 \ m/s^2$

Multiply.

$F= 12.8 \ kg*m/s^2$

<h3>2. Acceleration of the 2nd Object </h3>

Now, use the force we just calculated to complete the second part of the problem. We use the same formula:

$F= m \times a$

This time, we know the force is 12.8 kilograms meters per square second and the mass is 2 kilograms.

F= 12.8 kg *m/s²
m= 2 kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

$12.8 \ kg*m/s^2= 2 \ kg *a$

Since we are solving for the acceleration, we must isolate the variable (a). It is being multiplied by 2 kg. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 2 kg.

$\frac {12.8 \ kg*m/s^2}{2 \ kg}= \frac{2\ kg* a}{2 \ kg}$

$\frac {12.8 \ kg*m/s^2}{2 \ kg}=a$

The units of kilograms cancel.

$\frac {12.8}{2}\ m/s^2=a$

$6.4 \ m/s^2=a$

The acceleration is 6.4 meters per square second.

Name human body organs where magnetism is significant

ser-zykov [4K]

It has been hypothesized, and some studies have supported the conjecture,
that certain species of insects and birds are able to sense the direction of external
magnetic fields.

I don't think there is any such notion where human beings are concerned.

Would time travel mean that parallel universes would be created off our linear time sequence to ensure the universe doesn't coll

MatroZZZ [7]

In theroy, yes. But time travel has yet to happen and thus, we dont know. I would assume that that if an alternate universe were NOT created, it would cause a rip in the fabic of time creating a worm hole and allowing all entitys to pass through simultaneously,and that would cause great stress on it, possibly causing it to rip large enough to encase the whole universe and it would implode.
