I think the correct answer would be that because electromagnets are powerful and can be turned off and on anytime. Electromagnet is a magnet in which the magnetic field is made by the electric current that is induced to the system.

In the following diagrams the larger vector has a magnitude of 10, and the smaller
Anton [14]

the sum of vectors with the Pythagorean theorem allows us to find that the maximum magnitude occurs for the case:

d) the two vectors are parallel

Vectors are physical quantities that have modulus and direction, for example: force, velocity, acceleration, etc.

Vector algebra has defined the sum, the product by a scalar and by a vector.  The modulus and the direction of the resulting vector must be encoded.

The sum of two quantities is done using the Pythagorean theorem

                  c² = a² + b²

where c is the resultant called hypotenuse, a and b are the summing vectors called legs; trigonometry is used for the direction.

Let's apply this expression to the present case

a, b) perpendicular vectors

              c² = a² + b²

              c = \sqrt{6^2+10^2}

              c = 11.7

the magnitude is the same in both cases, changing the direction of the vector

c) Antiparallel vectors

             

For this case the vectors are collinear, so the sum reduces to the algebraic addition

             c = a-b

             c = 6 -10

             c = -4

d) parallel vectors

             c = a + b

             c = 4 + 10

             c = 14

We can see that the vectors addition gives their maximum and minimum values ​​when the vectors are collinear.

In conclusion using the vectors addition we find that the correct answer is

d) the two vectors are parallel

The United States spends over $20 billion a year on space exploration through NASA. Do you think that this has been worth the co
-BARSIC- [3]

Sunday, July 20, marked 45 years since the United States put the first two astronauts safely on the moon. The cost for the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs was more than $25 billion at the time more like $110 billion in today’s world. The ensuing U.S. space efforts have cost an additional $196 billion for the shuttle and $50 billion for the space station. NASA’s total inflation-adjusted costs have been more than $900 billion since its creation in 1958 through 2014 (more than $16 billion per year). Looking back, have we gotten our money’s worth from the investment?

A. A light wave moves through glass (n=1.5) at an angle of 25°. What angle will it have when it moves from the glass into air (n
torisob [31]

PART A)

By Snell's law we know that

n_1sin i = n_2 sin r

here we know that

n_1 = 1.5

i = 25 degree

n_2 = 1

now from above equation we have

1.5 sin25 = 1 sin r

r = 39.3 degree

so it will refract by angle 39.3 degree

PART B)

Here as we can see that image formed on the other side of lens

So it is a real and inverted image

Also we can see  that size of image is lesser than the size of object here

Here we can use concave mirror to form same type of real and inverted image

PART C)

As per the mirror formula we know that

\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}

\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{60} = \frac{1}{20}

d_i = 30 cm

so image will form at 30 cm from mirror

it is virtual image and smaller in size
