A freely suspended bar magnet always shows north and south direction why​

Physics

Masja [62]3 years ago

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The earth behaves as a magnetic dipole. Therefore a freely suspended magnet always points towards in the north-south direction because the north pole of the suspended magnet attracts the south pole of the earth's magnet which is the geographical north pole of the earth.

bearhunter [10]
The work output  of a machine is measured  or calculated by measuring the output force  and the output distance.  Work output is the work done by a simple machine or any type of an engine model, it is the energy output, which for machines is always less than the energy input, due to factors such as friction of the moving parts.

If you carry out an experiment measuring the weight and mass of objects in one particular location on the earth, what relation w
Elina [12.6K]
The answer is letter C.

Weight (on Earth) is the force due to the mass of Earth attracting whatever mass is subject of discussion.

The force of attraction between any two masses is called Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:

G \frac{m_1m_2}{d^2}

G is simply a given constant.

If we're at the surface of Eath, m_1 refers to the mass of the Earth, m_2 to the mass of whatever is on the surface of Earth, and d to the radius of Earth. 

Normally, we define a constant g to be equal to G \frac{M}{r^2}; in which M is the mass of Earth and r the radius of earth; g happens to be around 9.8.

By that, we adapt the Law of Universal Gravitation to objects on the surface of Earth, we call that force Weight.

W=mg

As you can see, weight is directly proportional to mass, more mass implies more weight.

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.40 m and a spring constant of 340 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

(a) Both the charges are positive or negative.

(b) Teh value of each charge is 1.53 x 10^-5 C.

Explanation:

Spring constant, K = 340 N/m

Natural length, L = 0.4 m

stretch, y = 0.033 m

(a) Let the charge on each sphere is q and they repel each other so the nature of charge of either sphere may be both positive or both negative.  

(b) The electrostatic force is balanced by the spring force.

\frac{kq^2}{(L + y)^2}=Ky\\\\\\\frac{9\times 10^9 q^2}{(0.4 +0.033)^2} = 340\times0.033\\\\q= 1.53\times 10^{-5} C
