Answer:

No; the graph fails the vertical line test.

The vertical line test is a tool used to determine if we have a function. If we can draw a single straight vertical line through more than one point on the red curve, then the graph is said to have failed the vertical line test. Consequently, this leads to the relation not being a function.

For this circle graph, we can draw a vertical line through more than one point, which is why we don't have a function here.

Put another way, there are inputs (x) that produce more than one output (y), so that's why we don't have a function.

What current is needed in the solenoid's wires?

marta [7]

Using Ampere's Law, the magnetic field produced inside this solenoid is given by
B = uo N I / h
where uo is the vacuum permeability, N is the number of turns in the solenoid and h is the length of the solenoid. Earth's magnetic field is around 50 microteslas in North America thus the current needed in the solenoid is
I = B h / (uo N) = (50 E-6 ) (4) / ((4 pi E-7)(6000) ) = 0.026 A
I = 26 mA
So you need a current of around 26 mA.

A vector has an x-component of length 10 and a y-component of length 3. What is the angle of the vector? (Hint: Use the inverse

Sonja [21]

The vector, the x-component and the y-component form a rectangle triangle where the vector is the hypothenuse and the x and y components are the two sides.
Calling $\alpha$ the angle between the vector and the horizontal direction (x), the two sides are related to $\alpha$ by
$\tan \alpha = \frac{v_y}{v_x}$
where vy and vx are the two components on the y- and x-axis. Using vx=10 and vy=3 we find
$\tan \alpha = \frac{3}{10} =0.3$
And so the angle is
$\alpha = \arctan (0.3)=16.7^{\circ}$
