HELP ME PLZ!!! Two lifeguards pull on ropes attached to a

1 answer:

When both pull in the same direction, their net is 352.
When they pull in opposite directions, the net in one direction is 157.

If you want to set up the system of equations,
you should start with

   A + B = 352
   A - B = 157 .

then add them, etc.

You'll find that

-- Guy-A is the stronger one.
   He's the one who moves to the other side,
   and he pulls with 254.5 newtons both times.

-- Guy-B is the less strong one.
   He stays put, and pulls with 97.5 newtons.

The two spheres pictured above have equal densities and are subject only to their mutual gravitational attraction. Which of the

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Gravitational force

Explanation:

If two spheres have equal densities and they are subject only to their mutual gravitational attraction. We need to say that the quantities that must have the same magnitude for both spheres. So, the correct option is (E) i.e. gravitational force.

It is because of Newton's third law of motion. It states that the force due to object 1 to object 2 is same as force due to object 2 to object 1. The two forces act in opposite direction.

Hence, the correct option is (E) "Gravitational force".

If the current in a wire increases from 5 A to 10 A, what happens to its magnetic field? If the distance of a charged particle f

1. The magnitude of the magnetic field doubles

Explanation: the intensity of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by:

$I=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}$

where $\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability, I is the current in the wire, r is the distance from the wire.

As we see from the formula, the intensity of the magnetic field is directly proportional to the current: if the current increases from 5 A to 10 A, it means it doubles, so the magnetic field doubles as well.

2. The magnitude of the magnetic field halves

Explanation: the intensity of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by:

$I=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}$

We see that the magnitude of the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the distance from the wire (r). In this case, the distance of the particle is changed from 10 cm to 20 cm, so it is doubled: therefore, the magnitude of the field will become half of the initial value.

3. The force reverses direction

Explanation: the force exerted on a charged particle in a magnetic field is:

$F=qvB sin \theta$

where q is the charge, v is the speed of the particle, B is the magnetic field intensity and $\theta$ the angle between the direction of v and B. If the charge of the particle is switched from 2 µC to –2µC, the magnitude of the force does not change (because the absolute value of q does not change), however the charge q gets a negative sign (-), so the sign of the force changes and gets a negative sign too, so the force reverses direction.

Which of the following would most likely utilize a particulate control device?

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Correct answer: D). All of the above The particulate control device is a device that is used for the separation of the material that is of a bigger size as compared to filter. In the factory smokestack, the particulate control device filters the particulate matter that is known to cause air pollution. In the vacuum cleaner, a fine dust particle is filtered out. In the laundry dryer, the water and dirt molecule is allowed to pass through it. Hence, all the options are correct.so therefore your answer would be all

28. Which of the following correctly shows the order of highest amount of friction to the lowest amount of

Bad White [126]

Answer:

$\mathrm{d.\:Static,\: Sliding,\:Rolling}$

Explanation:

Static friction occurs when an object initially starts at rest. When the surfaces of the materials touch, the microscopic unevenness interlock greatest with each other, causing the most friction out of the three.

During sliding friction, an object is already moving or in motion. The microscopic surfaces still interlock, but because the object is in motion, it has a momentum. Therefore, the magnitude of sliding friction is less than that of static friction.

Rolling friction occurs when an object rolls across some surface. Rather than surfaces interlocking, rolling friction is caused by the constant distortion of surfaces. As it rolls, the surfaces of the object are constantly wrapping and changing. This distortion causes the rolling friction. However, it is much less in magnitude when compared to static or sliding friction.
