Answer: Adhesion

Explanation: Adhesion is the tendency of dissimilar particles or surfaces to cling to one another (cohesion refers to the tendency of similar or identical particles/surfaces to cling to one another). The forces that cause adhesion and cohesion can be divided into several types. This allows Particles in things like water to stick to surfaces

What object requires less force to overcome inertia B.80 kg piece of furniture or A.1000 kg vehicle
Tju [1.3M]

Less force will be necessary to overcome inertia for the 80 kg piece of furniture.

Force is a factor that has the power to alter an object's motion. A massed object's velocity can be changed or accelerated by a force. A push or a pull is a straightforward method to explain forces.

The term "moment of inertia" refers to the quantity that describes how a body resists angular acceleration and is calculated by multiplying each particle's mass by its square of the distance from the rotational axis.

I = mr², where m is the mass of the object and r is the distance to the rotation axis.

Therefore, The inertia is directly proportional to the mass of the object.

So, as the mass increases the inertia increases.

Therefore, 80 kg piece of furniture will require less force to overcome inertia.

1.Predict the frequency of a tuning fork that emits a sound with a wavelength of 0.385 m.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

1.) Frequency F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

Explanation:

1.) Given that the wavelength = 0.385m

The speed of sound = 343 m / s

To predict the frequency, let us use the formula V = F λ

Where (λ) = wavelength = 0.385m

343 = F × 0.385

F = 343/0.385

F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Given that the frequency = 384Hz

Using the formula again

V = F λ

λ = V/F

Wavelength (λ) = 343/384

Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

The two questions can be solved with the use of formula

We have two solenoids: solenoid 2 has twice the diameter, half the length, and twice as many turns as solenoid 1. The current in
leva [86]

Answer:

the field at the center of solenoid 2 is 12 times the field at the center of solenoid 1.

Explanation:

Recall that the field inside a solenoid of length L, N turns, and a circulating current I, is given by the formula:

B=\mu_0\, \frac{N}{L} I

Then, if we assign the subindex "1" to the quantities that define the magnetic field (B_1) inside solenoid 1, we have:

B_1=\mu_0\, \frac{N_1}{L_1} I_1

notice that there is no dependence on the diameter of the solenoid for this formula.

Now, if we write a similar formula for solenoid 2, given that it has :

1) half the length of solenoid 1 . Then L_2=L_1/2

2) twice as many turns as solenoid 1. Then N_2=2\,N_1

3) three times the current of solenoid 1. Then I_2=3\,I_1

we obtain:

B_2=\mu_0\, \frac{N_2}{L_2} I_2\\B_2=\mu_0\, \frac{2\,N_1}{L_1/2} 3\,I_1\\B_2=\mu_0\, 12\,\frac{N_1}{L_1} I_1\\B_2=12\,B_1
