Answer:

1st – Place the film canister on the <u>scale</u>.

2nd – Slide the large <u>weight </u>to the right until the arm drops below the line and then move it back one notch.

3rd – Repeat this process with the <u>top</u> weight. When the arm moves below the line, back it up one groove.

4th – Slide the <u>small </u>weight on the front beam until the <u>lines</u> match up.

5th – Add the amounts on each beam to find the total <u>mass </u>to the nearest tenth of a gram.

Explanation:

The triple beam balance is an instrument that is used in measuring the mass of substances to a very high degree of precision. The reading error is given by ±0.05 grams. The triple beam balance as the name implies has three beams that measure substances of different mass levels.

The beams are categorized as small, medium, and large. There is a balance on which the substance to be weighed is placed directly upon. To use this measuring device, the procedures mentioned above are followed.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the magnetic field = 7.1 mT

b) The direction of the magnetic field is the +z direction.

Explanation:

The force, F on a current carrying wire of current I, and length, L, that passes through a magnetic field B at an angle θ to the flow of current is given by

F = (B)(I)(L) sin θ

F/L = (B)(I) sin θ

For this question,

(F/L) = 0.113 N/m

B = ?

I = 16.0 A

θ = 90°

0.113 = B × 16 × sin 90°

B = 0.113/16 = 0.0071 T = 7.1 mT

b) The direction of the magnetic field will be found using the right hand rule.

The right hand rule uses the first three fingers on the right hand (the thumb, the pointing finger and the middle finger) and it predicts correctly that for current carrying wires, the thumb is in the direction the wire is pushed (direction of the force; -y direction), the pointing finger is in the direction the current is flowing (+x direction), and the middle finger is in the direction of the magnetic field (hence, +z direction).

PLEASE HELP ME!
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

a) A = 3 cm,  b)  T = 0.4 s,   f = 2.5 Hz,

2) A standing wave the displacement of the wave is canceled and only one oscillation remains

Explanation:

a) in an oscillatory movement the amplitude is the highest value of the signal in this case

          A = 3 cm

b) the period of oscillation is the time it takes for the wave to repeat itself in this case

          T = 0.4 s

the period is the inverse of the frequency

         f = 1 /T

         f = 1 /, 0.4

         f = 2.5 Hz

2) a traveling wave is a wave for which as time increases the displacement increases, in the case of a transverse wave the oscillation is perpendicular to the displacement and in the case of a longitudinal wave the oscillation is in the same direction of the displacement.

A standing wave occurs when a traveling wave bounces off some object and there are two waves, one that travels in one direction and the other that travels in the opposite direction. In this case, the displacement of the wave is canceled and only one oscillation remains.

Why do magnets move objects in different ways?
atroni [7]

Answer:

Magnets have two poles, called north and south. The like poles are attracted to unlike poles, but like poles repel each other. For example, the north pole of one magnet is attracted to the south pole of another. ... To make objects move with a magnet attach a piece of metal, or another magnet, to it.

Neko [114]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 1800 Pa

Explanation:

Data

Weight = 2700 N

Area = 1.5 m²

Pressure = ?

Formula

Pressure = Force / Area

The Pressure is defined as the force exerted per unit area.

-Substitution

 Pressure = 2700 / 1.5

-Result

 Pressure = 1800 Pa

The units of pressure are Pascals (Pa)
