Answer:

20kg

Explanation:

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. The mass of an object, the amount of matter inside it does not change based on location. E.g. Objects do not lose matter when they travel to the moon.

Weight, on the other hand is the downward force you exert on the ground. Weight is calculated by multiplying the mass by the gravitational field strength and changes in different places with different gravitational strength. E.g. The moon's gravitational strength is 1/5 of Earth's so the mass of the object would stay the same but the weight would be only 20% of the weight is had on earth.

Hope this helped!

A uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of a circular loop of diameter 13 cm formed from wire of diameter 2.6 mm

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Rate of change of magnetic field is $3.466\times 10^3T/sec$

Explanation:

We have given diameter of the circular loop is 13 cm = 0.13 m

So radius of the circular loop $r=\frac{0.13}{2}=0.065m$

Length of the circular loop $L=2\pi r=2\times 3.14\times 0.065=0.4082m$

Wire is made up of diameter of 2.6 mm

So radius $r=\frac{2.6}{2}=1.3mm=0.0013m$

Cross sectional area of wire $A=\pi r^2=3.14\times0.0013^2=5.30\times 10^{-6}m^2$

Resistivity of wire $\rho =2.18\times 10^{-8}m$

Resistance of wire $R=\frac{\rho L}{A}=\frac{2.18\times 10^{-8}\times 0.4082}{5.30\times 10^{-6}}=1.67\times 10^{-3}ohm$

Current is given i = 11 A

So emf $e=11\times 1.67\times 10^{-3}=0.0183volt$

Emf induced in the coil is $e=-\frac{d\Phi }{dt}=-A\frac{dB}{dt}$

$0.0183=5.30\times 10^{-6}\times \frac{dB}{dt}$

$\frac{dB}{dt}=3.466\times 10^3=T/sec$

Define the types of friction and give FOUR examples of each

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Static Friction - acts on objects when they are resting on a surface

Sliding Friction - friction that acts on objects when they are sliding over a surface

Rolling Friction - friction that acts on objects when they are rolling over a surface

Fluid Friction - friction that acts on objects that are moving through a fluid

Explanation:

Examples of static include papers on a tabletop, towel hanging on a rack, bookmark in a book , car parked on a hill.

Example of sliding include sledding, pushing an object across a surface, rubbing one's hands together, a car sliding on ice.

Examples of rolling include truck tires, ball bearings, bike wheels, and car tires.

Examples of fluid include water pushing against a swimmer's body as they move through it , the movement of your coffee as you stir it with a spoon, sucking water through a straw, submarine moving through water.

What is a microwave?

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

an electromagnetic wave with a wavelength in the range 0.001–0.3 m, shorter than that of a normal radio wave but longer than those of infrared radiation. Microwaves are used in radar, in communications, and for heating in microwave ovens and in various industrial processes.
