Suppose you have two magnets. Magnet A doesn't have its poles labeled, but Magnet B does have a clearly labeled north and south

pole. If these two are brought into contact with one another, which of the following could you expect? 
A. The side of Magnet A that's repelled by Magnet B's south pole must be Magnet A's north pole.

B. The side of Magnet A that's repelled by Magnet B's north pole must be Magnet A's south pole.

C. The side of Magnet A that's attracted to Magnet B's south pole must be Magnet A's north pole.

D. The side of Magnet A that's attracted to Magnet B's north pole must be Magnet A's north pole.

Before going to answer this question first we have to know the fundamental principle of magnetism.

A magnet have two poles .The important characteristic of a magnet is that like poles will repel each other while unlike poles will attract each other.

Through this concept the question can be answered  as explained below-

A-As per first option the side of  magnet A is repelled by the south pole  of magnet B. Hence the pole of a must be south .It can't be north as it will lead to attraction.

B-The side of magnet A is repelled by the  north pole of magnet B. Hence the side of A must be  north pole.It can't be a south pole.

C-The side of magnet A is attracted by the south pole  of magnet  B .Hence the side of magnet A must be north.Hence this is right

D-The side of magnet A is attracted by the north pole of magnet B. Hence the side of A must south.It can't be north as it will lead to repulsion.

Hence the option C is right.

Explain what happens when you continually heat a solid in terms of particle motion and state of matter.
irinina [24]

Answer:

When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. The motion and spacing of the particles determines the state of matter of the substance. The end result of increased molecular motion is that the object expands and takes up more space.

Convection is the rising of
Ad libitum [116K]

Since the outer plumage of the penguin can resist the flow of heat in the cold antarctic air they might gain a little of this heat to keep them warm by thermal convection.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Convection is the circular movement that happens when hot air/liquid moves with molecules that were fast, making it less dense rises while the cold air/liquid drops down.
  • Also, they follow the technique of standing together always in a group which further helps them to decrease the loss of heat between them.
  • The plumage of penguin provides 80 percent of total insulation and is highly resistant to wind penetration.

A pendulum has a mass of 1.5 kg and starts at a height of 0.4 m. If it is released from rest, how fast is it going when it reach
ella [17]

Answer:

A. 2.8 m/s

Explanation:

Suppose that at the height of 0 m, the path of the pendulum is lowest.

If we use law of conservation of energy, the pendulum will have zero kinetic energy or K.E when it is at highest point, because K.E happens during movement of object and at the highest point all the energy will be P.E

                                                    P.E= mgh

Similarly, when the pendulum reaches at the lowest point, the height becomes zero and the P.E also becomes zero. Now all the energy will be K.E

                                               K.E= 1/2 m v^2

In question, we are asked about the speed as the pendulum  it reaches the lowest point of its path. Like we mentioned P.E will be zero at lowest point  because of zero height. And also we will use law of conservation of energy because no energy has been lost from system.

                                                  K.E=     P.E

                                       1/2 m v^2  =   mgh

Taking sq.root at both sides

                                                  v= Under root 2 gh

                                                   v=Under root 2x 9.8 m/s x0.4 m

                                                   v=Under root 7.84

                                                    v=2.8 m/sec

Hope it helps!

If a light is moved twice (2x) as far from a surface, the area the light covers is ___ as big.
Serga [27]

Answer:

The correct option is;

- 4x

Explanation:

From the inverse square law, as the distance from the source of a physical quantity increases, the intensity of the source is spread over an area proportional to the square of the distance of the object from the source

The inverse square law can be presented as follows;

I = \dfrac{S}{4\times \pi \times  r^2 }

As the distance, r, increases, the surface it covers also increases by the power of 2

Therefore, where the distance increases from r to 2·r, we have;

When, I, remain constant

I = \dfrac{4\times S}{4\times \pi \times  (2\cdot r)^2 } = I = \dfrac{4\times S}{4\times 4\times \pi \times  r^2 } =  \dfrac{S}{4\times \pi \times  r^2 }

The surface increases to 4·S by the inverse square law

Therefore, the correct option is 4 × x.

The function of an electric motor is to change electrical energy into
Vaselesa [24]
<span>The function of an electric motor is to change electrical energy
into kinetic energy.

Even if you want to use the electric motor to give a heavy weight
a lot of potential energy, by lifting it up onto, say, the roof of a house,
you still have to use the motor to MOVE the weight.  So you're still
giving it kinetic energy as an intermediate step..
