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.

eimsori [14]
Use the formula M=D×V:

M=10 g/cm³ * 5 cm³ = 50 g

which is more than 40 grams, so the container cannot hold the chain.

A mail carrier leaves the post office and drives 2.00 km to the north. He then drives in a direction 60.0° south of east for 7.00
den301095 [7]

Answer:

\theta=7^o

Explanation:

<u>Displacement</u>

It is a vector that points to the final point where an object traveled from its starting point. If the object traveled to several points, then the individual displacements must be added as vectors.

The mail carrier leaves the post office and drives 2 km due north. The first displacement vector is

\vec r_1=\ km

Then the carrier drives 7 km in 60° south of east. The displacement has two components in the x and y axis given by

\vec r_2=\ km=\ km

Finally, he drives 9.5 km 35° north of east.

\vec r_3=\ km=\ km

The total displacement is

\vec r_t=\ km+\ km+\ km

\vec r_t=\ km

The direction can be calculated with

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{1.39}{11.28}=0.1232

\boxed{\theta=7^o}
