Answer:

1. The magnetic field encircles the wire in a counterclockwise direction

Explanation:

When we have a current carrying wire perpendicular to the screen in which the current flows out of the screen then by the Maxwell's right-hand thumb rule we place the thumb of our right hand in the direction of the current and curl the remaining fingers around the wire, these curled fingers denote the direction of the magnetic field which is in the counter-clock wise direction.

Ever current carrying conductor produces a magnetic field around it.

A Ferris wheel starts at rest and builds up to a final angular speed of 0.70 rad/s while rotating through an angular displacemen

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that Ferris wheel accelerates at constant rate, the angular acceleration as a function of change in angular position and the squared final and initial angular velocities can be clear from the following expression:

$\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})$

Where:

$\omega_{o}$ , $\omega$ - Initial and final angular velocities, measured in radians per second.

$\alpha$ - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

$\theta_{o}$ , $\theta$ - Initial and final angular position, measured in radians.

Then,

$\alpha = \frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})}$

Given that $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\theta-\theta_{o} = 4.9\,rad$ , the angular acceleration is:

$\alpha = \frac{\left(0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(4.9\,rad\right)}$

$\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

Now, the time needed to accelerate the Ferris wheel uniformly is described by this kinematic equation:

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

Where $t$ is the time measured in seconds.

The time is cleared and obtain after replacing every value:

$t = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{\alpha}$

If $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , the required time is:

$t = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} }$

$t = 14\,s$

Average angular acceleration is obtained by dividing the difference between final and initial angular velocities by the time found in the previous step. That is:

$\bar \alpha = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{t}$

If $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $t = 14\,s$ , the average angular acceleration is:

$\bar \alpha = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{14\,s}$

$\bar \alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

What are three observations an astronaut might make while viewing Russia at night

Lunna [17]

1. Physical size of Russia compared to other countries, despite a lack of visible borders from space.

2. Part of Russia's outline would likely be obscured by the various clouds and objects in the stratosphere; this would allow the astronaut to view potential cloud and weather patterns on earth.

3. An astronaut could see outlines of Russia's geography such as mountain ranges.

Hope that it helps :)

The force that probably propels the movement of the earth s gigantic rock plates is

il63 [147K]

The correct answer is:

c. convection.

The heating of magma and the continuous cycle of evolution of the magma creating a convection current is the reason for the evolution of Earths tectonic plates.

Explanation:

Tectonic plates are ready to move because the Earth's lithosphere has higher strength than the underlying asthenosphere. Lateral density changes in the mantle appear in convection. Plate movement is believed to be driven by a succession of the motion of the seafloor apart from the extended ridge (due to variations in topography and density of the crust.

"A steel rotating-beam test specimen has an ultimate strength of 120 kpsi. Estimate the life of the specimen if it is tested at

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

life (N) of the specimen is 117000 cycles

Explanation:

given data

ultimate strength Su = 120 kpsi

stress amplitude σa = 70 kpsi

solution

we first calculate the endurance limit of specimen Se i.e

Se = 0.5× Su .............1

Se = 0.5 × 120

Se = 60 kpsi

and we know strength of friction f = 0.82

and we take endurance limit Se is = 60 kpsi

so here coefficient value (a) will be

a = $\frac{(f\times Su)^2}{Se}$ ......................1

put here value and we get

a = $\frac{(0.82\times 120)^2}{60}$

a = 161.4 kpsi

so coefficient value (b) will be

b = $-\frac{1}{3}log\frac{(f\times Su)}{Se}$

b = $-\frac{1}{3}log\frac{(0.82\times 120)}{60}$

b = −0.0716

so here number of cycle N will be

N = $(\frac{ \sigma a}{a})^{1/b}$

put here value and we get

N = $(\frac{ 70}{161.4})^{1/-0.0716}$

N = 117000

so life (N) of the specimen is 117000 cycles
