Why were you able to see the effects of the magnetic fields using iron filings

2 answers:

6 0

The iron filings aligned themselves in a pattern, along with the magnet connecting the north and south poles. This creates the “magnetic field”. Interacting with a metal object in between the magnetic properties of the metal interact with the magnet, expressing signs of magnetic force acting on it and the metal, pulled together letting you see the see the effects of the magnetic fields using iron filings.

Iron filing are soft magnetic materials. The are highly attracted by magnets.
They are used in the study of magnetic fields.
Another reason why they are used because they are light and and they can aline themselves in the paths of the magnetic fields. This way the fields patterns can be seen clearly.

• A cable is suspended over a pulley. A 5.0 kg mass is attached to

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Tension= $\frac{20g}{3}$ (g=acceleration of gravity)

Explanation:

Given that,

A 5Kg and 10Kg are attached by a cable suspended over a pulley.

As 10Kg > 5Kg , the 10 kg mass accelerates down and the 5kg mass accelerates up, let it be a. Let the tension in the cable be T.

So, the equations of motion are

$10g-T = 10a$

$T-5g=5a$

Now adding them we get,

$5g=15a$

$a=\frac{g}{3}$

Substituting them back in the equation we get,

$10g-10(\frac{g}{3} ) = T$

$T= \frac{20g}{3}$

Nuclear fusion occurs in stars. a. True b. False

AnnyKZ [126]

Stars are powered by nuclear fusion in their cores, mostly converting hydrogen into helium. The production of new elements via nuclear reactions is called nucleosynthesis. A star's mass determines what other type of nucleosynthesis occurs in its core (or during explosive changes in its life cycle). READ THIS AND YOU WILL UNDERSTAND I THINK IS TRUE

Identify the correct sequence for the formation and use of coal.

Zanzabum

The correct answer is - A. Plants store solar energy; the plants die; the plants are compressed; solar energy is released;

The plants use the solar energy for their functioning, thus they are one of the biggest natural storage of it. The plants also use the CO2 for the process of photosynthesis that is driven by the solar energy. When the plants die, the things inside them are stored in them, and if they are quickly covered they will remain stored and not get back into the atmosphere. The plants than are compressed, and over time that leads to a change in their composition. After millions of years had passed, the solar energy and CO2 had turned into coal. The coal is heavily used by the humans in the past few centuries, and with its burning the solar energy and the CO2 are released back into the atmosphere from which they came millions of years ago.

A woman of mass 50 kg is swimming with a velocity of 1.6 m/s. If she stops stroking and glides to a stop in the water, what is t

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Impulse of force = -80 Ns

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 50kg

Initial velocity = 1.6m/s

Since she glides to a stop, her final velocity equals to zero (0).

Now, we would find the change in velocity.

$Change \; in \; velocity = final \; velocity - initial \; velocity$

Substituting into the equation above;

Change in velocity = 0 - 1.6 = 1.6m/s

$Impulse \; of \; force = mass * change \; in \; velocity$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Impulse \; of \; force = 50 * -1.6$

Impulse of force = -80 Ns

Therefore, the impulse of the force that stops her is -80 Newton-seconds and it has a negative value because it is working in an opposite direction, thus, bringing her to a stop.
