Answer: if you cut one in half, the newly cut faces will become the new north or south poles of the smaller pieces.

A magnet can be defined to have a north and south pole, in which magnetic fieldlines respectively leave or enter the surface of the magnet. But these magnetic fieldlines loop around and are self closing, which means that the lines entering the magnet connect with the lines leaving the magnet.

If you now were to cut the magnet in half, the magnetic fieldlines that ran through the magnet now are going out of or into the 2 parts of the magnet. These two ends now become the new north or south pole, depending on whether the already existing pole is south or north.

When you move the magnets away far enough, they fieldlines will now once again loop and close on themselves: you get 2 new magnets.

Hope this is clear enough, looking up some photos might help ;)

What would happen to the wavelength if the frequency was doubled?

ira [324]

Answer:

λ = hv

If frequency is doubled :

λ = h × 2v

λ = 2hv

Thus wavelength is doubled

Michael Jordan, el célebre basquetbolista, ganó el torneo de clavadas de la NBA en 1988. Para lograr la hazaña saltó 1.35 metros

kozerog [31]

(a) 0.40 s

First of all, let's find the initial speed at which Jordan jumps from the ground.

The maximum height is h = 1.35 m. We can use the following equation:

$v^2-u^2=2gh$

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

$g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for u,

$u=\sqrt{-2gh}=\sqrt{-2(-9.8)(1.35)}=5.14 m/s$

The time needed to reach the maximum height can now be found by using the equation

$v=u+gt$

Solving for t,

$t=\frac{v-u}{g}=\frac{0-5.14}{-9.8}=0.52s$

Now we can find the velocity at which Jordan reaches a point 20 cm below the maximum height, so at a height of

h' = 1.35 - 0.20 = 1.15 m

Using again the equation

$v'^2-u^2=2gh'$

we find

$v'=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{5.14^2+2(-9.8)(1.15)}=1.97 m/s$

And the corresponding time is

$t'=\frac{v'-u}{g}=\frac{1.97-5.14}{-9.8}=0.32s$

So the time to go from h' to h is

$\Delta t = t-t'=0.52-0.32=0.20 s$

And since we have also to take into account the fall down (after Jordan reached the maximum height), which is symmetrical, we have to multiply this time by 2 to get the total time of permanence in the highest 20 cm of motion:

$\Delta t=2\cdot 0.20 = 0.40 s$

(b) 0.08 s

This part is easier since we need to calculate only the velocity at a height of h' = 0.20 m:

$v'^2-u^2=2gh'$

$v'=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{5.14^2+2(-9.8)(0.20)}=4.74 m/s$

And the corresponding time is

$t'=\frac{v'-u}{g}=\frac{4.74-5.14}{-9.8}=0.04s$

So this is the time needed to go from h=0 to h=20 cm; again, we have to take into account the motion downwards, so we have to multiply this by 2:

$\Delta t = 2\cdot 0.04 =0.08 s$

A 1.00 kg block of ice, at -25.0°C, is warmed by 35 kJ of energy. What is the final temperature of the ice?

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

-8.4°C

Explanation:

From the principle of heat capacity.

The heat sustain by an object is given as;

H = m× c× (T2-T1)

Where H is heat transferred

m is mass of substance

T2-T1 is the temperature change from starting to final temperature T2.

c- is the specific heat capacity of ice .

Note : specific heat capacity is an intrinsic capacity of a substance which is the energy substained on a unit mass of a substance on a unit temperature change.

Hence ; 35= 1× c× ( T2-(-25))

35= c× ( T2+25)

35 =2.108×( T2+25)

( T2+25)= 35/2.108= 16.60°{ approximated to 2 decimal place}

T2= 16.60-25= -8.40°C

C, specific heat capacity of ice is =2.108 kJ/kgK{you can google that}
