Answer:

The magnetic force is 0.3 N.        

Explanation:

Given that,

Current in an unusual lightning strike, I = -400 A

The Earth’s magnetic field at that location is parallel to the ground and has a magnitude of 30 μT, B=30\times 10^{-6}\ T

We need to find the force exerted by the Earth’s magnetic field on the 25 m-long current.

The magnetic force is given by :

F=ILB\\\\F=400\times 25\times 30\times 10^{-6}\\\\F=0.3\ N

So, the magnetic force is 0.3 N.

Light travels 186 000 miles per second.how many miles dose light travel in one year
Troyanec [42]

       (186,000 mi/sec) x (3,600 sec/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (365 da/yr)

  =   (186,000 x 3,600 x 24 x 365)  mi/yr

  =      5,865,696,000,000  miles per year  (rounded to the nearest million miles)

A baseball player throws a baseball at a speed of 40 meters per second at an angle of 30 degrees. What is the velocity of projec
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the velocity is the cosine of 30 degrees multiplied by 40m/s. The cosine of 30 degrees is the 0.8660 . To get the speed, multiply by 40m/s. This equals 34.64, which is approximately 35m/s.

Hope it helpss :)

Mr. Miles zips down a water-slide starting at 15 m vertical distance up the scaffolding. Disregarding friction, what is the velo
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The velocity of the Mr. miles is 17.14 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mr. Miles zips down a water-slide starting at 15 m vertical distance up the scaffolding, h = 15 m

We need to find the velocity of the Mr. Miles at the bottom of the slide. It is a case of conservation of energy which states that the total energy of the system remains conserved. Let v is the velocity of the Mr. miles. So,

v=\sqrt{2gh}

g is the acceleration due to gravity

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 15}

v = 17.14 m/s

So, the velocity of the Mr. miles is 17.14 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the net force at the equilibrium point? Derive an equation for the location of the equilibrium point based on the accele
Vitek1552 [10]

To find a general equilibrium point for a spring based on the hook law, it is possible to start from the following premise:

Hook's law is given by:

F = k\Delta X

Where,

k= Spring Constant

\Delta X = Change in Length

F = Force

When there is a Mass we have two force acting at the System:

W= mg

Where W is the force product of the weigth. Then the force net can be defined as,

F_{net} = F+W

But we have a system in equilibrium, so

0 = K\Delta X -mg

We find the equilibrium for any location when

\Delta X = \frac{mg}{k}
