A magnetic compass is placed near an insulated copper wire. When the wire is connected to a battery and a current is created, th

e compass needle moves and changes its position. Which is the best explanation for the production of a force that causes the needle to move?
(1)The copper wire magnetizes the compass needle and exerts the force on the compass needle.
(2)The compass needle magnetizes the copper wire and exerts the force on the compass needle.
(3)The insulation on the wire becomes charged, which exerts the force on the compass needle.
(4)The current in the wire produces a magnetic field that exerts the force on the compass needle.

Every current through a wire produced a magnetic field. And since the magnetic field of Earth is weak, it will get attracted towards the wire.

<u>Note that</u>:

The gravitational potential energy = mgh

where m: is the mass, g: the acceleration due to the gravity and h is the height from the earth surface

Then, we can increase the gravitational potential energy by increasing the mass or the height from the earth surface

50 grams of ice cubes at -15°C are used to chill a water at 30°C with mass mH20 = 200 g. Assume that the water is kept in a foam
Arada [10]

Answer : The final temperature is, 25.0^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of ice = 2.09J/g^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of ice = 50 g

m_2 = mass of water = 200 g

T_f = final temperature = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of ice = -15^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 30^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

50g\times 2.09J/g^oC\times (T_f-(-15))^oC=-200g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times (T_f-30)^oC

T_f=25.0^oC

Therefore, the final temperature is, 25.0^oC

Assume that the electric field E is equal to zero at a given point. Does it mean that the electric potential V must also be equa
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

  • No, this doesn't mean the electric potential equals zero.

Explanation:

In electrostatics, the electric field \vec{E} is related to the gradient of the electric potential V with :

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r})

This means that for constant electric potential the electric field must be zero:

V(\vec{r}) = k

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} k

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = -  (\frac{\partial}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial}{\partial z}) k

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = -  (\frac{\partial k}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial k}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial k}{\partial z})

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = -  (0,0,0)

This is not the only case in which we would find an zero electric field, as, any scalar field with gradient zero will give an zero electric field. For example:

V(\vec{r})= (x+2)^2 (y+4)^3 (z+5)^4

give an electric field of zero at point (0,0,0)

When one observes the phase of matter of water, one observes a property of matter.
FromTheMoon [43]

Water is a very unique substance because it can exist in all three phases of matter (solid, liquid, gas) within the normal temperature ranges found on Earth. When one observes the phase of matter of water, one observes a property of matter.
