Answer:

57 N

Explanation:

Force on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field

B = 12 X 10⁻⁴ T

= Bil where B is magnetic field , i is current and l is length of conductor

force required = 12 x10⁻⁴ x 47500 x 1

= 57 N

KIIS FM broadcasts at 102.7 MHz, what is the wavelength of that radio wave?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

2.92 m

Explanation:

As we know, frequency × Wavelength = Speed of light

so here frequency of 102.7 MHz can be written as 102.7× 10⁶ Hz..

So Lambda (wavelength) = 3×10⁸/ 102.7 × 10⁶ which gives 2.92 metres or 2.92 × 10¹⁰ Å

How can a moving coil galvanometer can be made into a dc ammeter?
Dennis_Churaev [7]
I am absolutely sure that the way how can a moving coil galvanometer can be made into a dc ammeter is of course by connecting a. low resistance across the meter. You should remember that you must connect <span>a shunt resistor straight across the galvanometer. Do hope this answer will help you! Regards.</span>

Which asteroid has more potential energy an asteroid that is closest to the sun or an asteroid that is farthest away from the su
Sloan [31]

When the comet is closest to the Sun,
it has its maximum kinetic energy
and minimum gravitational potential energy. When the comet is far away from the Sun, it has maximum gravitational potential energy and minimal kinetic energy. It's faster when it's close because the Sun's gravity is pulling the comet closer. The opposite for when it gets farther away
