Assuming the same current is running through two separate coils, why is it easier to thrust a magnet into a wire coil with one l
s2008m [1.1K]
The magnetic field strength in a coil is directly proportional to the number of turns, or loops, in the coil.
Therefore, when there are four loops instead of one, the magnetic field strength has increased four times, making it harder to push the magnet in.

What is 1113.28 in a sig fig?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

6 significant figure

Explanation:

The digits 111328 all are 6 figures with no figure being zero, neither zero after the other digits. In this case, all the numbers are significant and since they are only six numbers, then this is a six significant figure. In case we add another zero after digit 8, the zero is not significant but if added either infront of 8 or 2, the zero becomes significant.

The sun’s___and the planet’s___keeps planets moving is___orbits.
Sauron [17]

The sun’s gravitational attraction and the planet’s inertia keeps planets moving is circular orbits.

Explanation:

The planets in the Solar System move around the Sun in a circular orbit. This motion can be explained as a combination of two effects:

1) The gravitational attraction of the Sun. The Sun exerts a force of gravitational attraction on every planet. This force is directed towards the Sun, and its magnitude is

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the planet

r is the distance between the Sun and the planet

This force acts as centripetal force, continuously "pulling" the planet towards the centre of its circular orbit.

2) The inertia of the planet. In fact, according to Newton's first law, an object in motion at constant velocity will continue moving at its velocity, unless acted upon an external unbalanced force. Therefore, the planet tends to continue its motion in a straight line (tangential to the circular orbit), however it turns in a circle due to the presence of the gravitational attraction of the Sun.

Which one of the following statements concerning the momentum of a system when the net force acting on the system is equal to ze
Alex

Answer:

D

Explanation:

According to newton's 2nd law rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the force applied on the body. Since, net Force is zero this means momentum did not change or momentum of the body remained constant.

Hence, the system have constant value of momentum. Therefore, option D is correct.

The first car has twice the mass of a second car, but only half as much kinetic energy. When both cars increase their speed by 9
kirill [66]

Answer:

Speed of the car 1 =V_1=8.98m/s

Speed of the car 2 =V_2=17.96m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the car 1 , M₁ = Twice the mass of car 2(M₂)

mathematically,

M₁ = 2M₂

Kinetic Energy of the car 1 = Half the kinetic energy of the car 2

KE₁ = 0.5 KE₂

Now, the kinetic energy for a body is given as

KE =\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where,

m = mass of the body

v = velocity of the body

thus,

\frac{1}{2}M_1V_1^2=0.5\times \frac{1}{2}M_2V_2^2

or

\frac{1}{2}2M_2V_1^2=0.5\times \frac{1}{2}M_2V_2^2

or

2M_2V_1^2=0.5\times M_2V_2^2

or

2V_1^2=0.5\times V_2^2

or

4V_1^2= V_2^2

or

2V_1= V_2  .................(1)

also,

\frac{1}{2}M_1(V_1+9.0)^2=\frac{1}{2}M_2(V_2+9.0)^2

or

\frac{1}{2}2M_2(V_1+9.0)^2=\frac{1}{2}M_2(2V_1+9.0)^2

or

2(V_1+9.0)^2=(2V_1+9.0)^2

or

\sqrt{2}(V_1+9.0)=(2V_1+9.0)

or

(\sqrt{2}V_1+ \sqrt{2}\times 9.0)=(2V_1+9.0)

or

(\sqrt{2}V_1+ 12.72)=(2V_1+9.0)

or

(2V_1-\sqrt{2}V_1)=(12.72-9.0)

or

(0.404V_1)=(3.72)

or

V_1=8.98m/s

and, from equation (1)

V_2=2\times 8.98m/s = 17.96m/s

Hence,

Speed of car 1 =V_1=8.98m/s

Speed of car 2 =V_2=17.96m/s
