Answer: buoyant force

Explanation:

Leokris [45]2 years ago

Answer:

buoyant force

Explanation:

The buoyant force is the pressure that is exerted on a immersed object by the surrounding fluid.  

The buoyant force acts on the surface of the solid object even if the object is immersed in the fluid partially or completely. If the object is immersed in a fluid, the net force is given by the formula:

F_{bottom}  = (P_{atm} + \rho gh) A

where Patm is the atmospheric pressure at the top of the object

pgh = pressure of the part  in the fluid

F(bottom) is the upward force on the object

The net force is the same as the wight of the displaced object.

The principle is known as the Archimedes principle as the buoyant force is equals the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.

There is a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B, pervading all space, perpendicular to the plane of rod and rails. The rod is r
Charra [1.4K]

The right hand rule to find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:

  • The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
  • The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.

The magnetic force is given by the vector product of the velocity and the magnetic field.

        F = q v x B

Where the bolds indicate vectors, F is the force, q the charge on the particle, v the velocity and B the magnetic field.

In the vector product, the vectors are perpendicular, which is why the right-hand rule has been established, see attached:

  • The thumb points in the direction of speed.
  • Fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field.
  • The palm is in the direction of the force if the charge is positive and in the opposite direction if the charge is negative.

They indicate that the bar is dropped, therefore its speed is vertical and downwards, it moves to the left therefore this is the direction of the force, we use the right hand rule, the magnetic field must be horizontal, we have two possibilities:

  • If the charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
  • If the charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is, horizontal away from us

In conclusion using the right hand rule we can find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:

  • The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.
  • The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.

a bowling ball has a mass of 6 kilograms. a tennis ball has a mass of 0.06 kilogram. how much inertia does the bowling ball have
Andreyy89

Answer:

100 times

Explanation:

Since inertia is directly proportional to the mass of an object, the higher the mass the higher the inertia. In this case, 6 Kg is 100 times heavier than 0.06 Kg to imply The bowling ball  has 100 times more inertia than the tennis  ball because it has 100 times more mass

A vehicle has an oil leak that is causing the entire oil pan to be wet, but inspection reveals no exact source after cleaning of
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Technician A is correct

Explanation:

The best approach to solve the problem is that of technician A. using a fluorescent die is the easiest and most efficient way to trace leaks with unknown sources. The fluorescent die will simply illuminate the path to the leaking spot in the engine of the car, without any need for much speculations. This makes this method a sure approach.

However, Technician B's approach still has a lot of assumptions factored into the methodology, and would not work properly. It will still require the painstaking attempts trying to make guesses where the oil leak is coming from, which will lead to wastage of time and energy.

This makes Technician A have the right approach to solving the problem

Name three different avenues by which Thomas Edison received an education
klio [65]
Edison's education is most unique and relevant.

1. The first teacher he had was his mother
2. He found vital lessons and was influenced greatly by the book of R.G. Parker called School of Natural Philosophy
3. Another educating piece he had was a book entitled The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art

His style of learning was though reading books on a variety of subjects, a self-educating environment that fosters independent learning which can be useful through his life.
