Answer: Those materials which are not attracted by a magnet are called non- magnetic materials. All the substances other than iron, nickel, and Cobalt are non-magnetic substances for example plastic, rubber, water, etc are nonmagnetic materials. Non-magnetic substances cannot be magnetized.

Explanation: The materials which get attracted towards a magnet are magnetic – for example, iron, nickel or cobalt. The materials which are not attracted towards a magnet are non-magnetic materials. Examples of non-magnetic materials include rubber, coins, feather and leather.

A 248-g piece of copper is dropped into 390 mL of water at 22.6 °C. The final temperature of the water was measured as 39.9 °C.
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

335°C

Explanation:

Heat gained or lost is:

q = m C ΔT

where m is the mass, C is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Heat gained by the water = heat lost by the copper

mw Cw ΔTw = mc Cc ΔTc

The water and copper reach the same final temperature, so:

mw Cw (T - Tw) = mc Cc (Tc - T)

Given:

mw = 390 g

Cw = 4.186 J/g/°C

Tw = 22.6°C

mc = 248 g

Cc = 0.386 J/g/°C

T = 39.9°C

Find: Tc

(390) (4.186) (39.9 - 22.6) = (248) (0.386) (Tc - 39.9)

Tc = 335

1. The first thing to do in the event of brake failure is to a. use the parking brake to stop your carb. pump the brake pedal ra
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The correct answers are -

1. b. pump the brake pedal rapidly

2. d. all of the above

3. c. your power brakes and power steering won't work very well

4. a. gasoline

5. b. power-assist failure

Explanation:

Brakes help in stopping the vehicle by causing resistance to wheels. IF brake failure it is advised to pump the breaks rapidly in order to cause resistance. Engine failure can be caused by various reasons such as a broken timing gear, no fuel, or getting extremely heated.

In the case of stalling of engine most common effects as power steering not working properly or power brakes not working well. The flooded engine means the engine has too much gasoline that it wont starts.

A car traveling with 500,000 J of kinetic energy is brought to a kinetic energy of
allsm [11]

Answer:

33,333.33 N

Explanation:

Given that :

Initial kinetic energy = 500,000 J

Final kinetic energy = 100,000 J

Using the relation :

Force * time = change in momentum (Newton's law)

Force (F) * 0.12 = (500,000 - 100,000)

0.12F = 400,000 J

Force = (400,000 J) / 0.12s

Force = 33333.333

Force = 33,333.33 N

n noisy factory environments, it's possible to use a loudspeaker to cancel persistent low-frequency machine noise at the positio
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

7.888m

Explanation:

Given:

frequency 'f'= 90Hz

velocity of the sound 'v' = 340 m /sec

The wavelength of the wave is given by,

λ= v/f => 340/90

λ= 3.777m

The destructive interference condition is givn by

Δd= (m+\frac{1}{2}  ) λ

where, m=0,1,2,3,..

m=0, for minimum destructive interference

Δd= (0+\frac{1}{2}  ) x 3.777

Δd=1.888

Therefore, the required distance is

d_f=d_i + Δd => 6 + 1.888

d_f= 7.888m

Thus, So the speaker should be placed at  7.888 m
