A magnetically soft material is placed in a strong magnetic feild. what is the most likely outcome?
myrzilka [38]
So we want to know what will happen if we put a magnetically soft material in a strong magnetic field. A magnetically soft material is a material whose magnetic field can easily be reversed. Those are ferromagnetic materials. Iron is such a material. When a magnetically soft material is placed into a strong magnetic field it gets its own magnetic field. But its not a permanent magnetic field, it can be changed by a different strong magnetic field.

What is the average power consumption in watts of an appliance that uses 5.00 kWh of energy per day? How many joules of energy d
denpristay [2]

Answer:

(A)  power  = 0.208 kW = 208 watts

(B)  energy = 6.6 x 10^{9} joules

Explanation:

energy consumed per day = 5 kWh

(a) find the power consumed in a day

         1 day = 24 hours

        power = \frac{energy}{time}

        power = \frac{5}{24}

          power  = 0.208 kW = 208 watts

         

(b) find the energy consumed in a year

    assuming it is not a leap year and number of days = 365 days

     1 year = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 = 31,536,000 seconds

            energy = power x time

            energy = 208 x 31,536,000

            energy = 6.6 x 10^{9} joules

A stationary police car emits a sound of frequency 1240 HzHz that bounces off of a car on the highway and returns with a frequen
Tju [1.3M]

Answer

given,

frequency from Police car= 1240 Hz

frequency of sound after return  = 1275 Hz

Calculating the speed of the car = ?

Using Doppler's effect formula

Frequency received by the other car

  f_1 = \dfrac{f_0(u + v)}{u}..........(1)

u is the speed of sound = 340 m/s

v is the speed of the car

Frequency of the police car received

  f_2= \dfrac{f_1(u)}{u-v}

now, inserting the value of equation (1)

  f_2= f_0\dfrac{u+v}{u-v}

  1275=1240\times \dfrac{340+v}{340-v}

  1.02822(340 - v) = 340 + v

   2.02822 v = 340 x 0.028822

   2.02822 v = 9.799

   v = 4.83 m/s

hence, the speed of the car is equal to v = 4.83 m/s

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

a) frequency = 0.1724 Hz

b) Period = 5.8 sec

c) speed = 7.04 m/s

d) acceleration = 7.62 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that;

radius = 6.5m

time period = 5.8 sec every circle

a)  the frequency

frequency is the number of rotation in unit time

frequency = 1 / time period = 1/5.8

frequency = 0.1724 Hz

b)  the period

period is time taken in one rotation

period = total time / rotation = 5.8 / 1

Period = 5.8 sec

c)  the speed

speed = distance/time = circumference/time period = 2πr / t = (2π×6.5) / 5.8

speed = 7.04 m/s

d) acceleration

To find the acceleration we take the linear velocity squared divided by the radius of the circle.

so

acceleration = v² / r = (7.04)² / 6.5 = 49.5616 / 6.5

acceleration = 7.62 m/s²

ou are out stargazing with your 13.4-cm telescope. You point your telescope at an interesting formation in the sky, which you th
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

θ = 4.716 10⁻⁶ rad

Explanation:

In order for the releases to be considered separate, they must meet the Rayleigh criterion that establishes that the maximum diffraction of one star must coincide with the first minimum of the diffraction pattern of the second star.

We use the diffraction equation for a slit

            a sin θ = m λ

The minimum occurs at m = 1

             sin θ = λ / a

Since the angles in these systems are very small, we can approximate the sine to its angle in radians

             θ = λ / a

The telescope has a circular aperture whereby polar cords should be used, which introduces a constant number

           θ = 1.22 λ / a

Let's calculate

          θ = 1.22 518 10⁻⁹ / 13.4 10⁻²

          θ = 4.716 10⁻⁶ rad
