A student has the following equipment - copper wire, nail made of iron,a battery, paperclips.

1 answer:

4 0

The first step would be to create an electromagnet. You can create an electromagnet by winding a copper wire around the nail, the connect both ends to the battery. A current would start flowing around the nail through the wire, creating an electromagnet with its own magnetic field. Next, bringing the electromagnet to the mixture of copper and iron would slowly attract the pieces of iron (as copper is weakly magnetic). Do this slowly and the iron pieces would all slowly be separated from the copper pieces.

A moving car skids to a stop with the wheels locked across a level roadway. Of the forces listed, identify which act on the car.

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Normal, Gravity, Friction, and Air Resistance.

Explanation:

When a moving car skid to stop and its wheels are locked across, then the following forces will be applied on the car:

Normal force: It will act counter to gravity that pushes an object against a surface and acts perpendicular to the contact surface.

Gravity: Gravity force acts in each and every object having mass and it can not be avoidable. So, the gravity force will also apply to the car and attract it to the earth's surface.

Friction: Friction is a force that acts opposite to the motion and stops or slows motion. Friction will be applied to the car that will oppose the motion of the car and stop it.

Air resistance: air resistance is defined as the forces exerted by air that acts opposite to the relative motion of an object. Air resistance will also be applied to the car when it will skid to stop as we are always surrounded by the air.

Hence, the correct answers are "Normal, Gravity, Friction, and Air Resistance."
