Answer:

B) points straight up.

Explanation:

As per the rule of Right hand thumb rule we know that magnetic field due to a closed loop is given by the direction of the thumb of right hand when our fingers of right hand is curled in the direction of current in the loop.

Here it is given that current is flowing in the loop in counter clockwise direction.

So here we will curl our fingers in counter clockwise direction so due our thumb will indicate perpendicular to the plane of the loop outwards or straight upwards.

So here correct answer will be

B) points straight up.

An underwater scuba diver sees the Sun at an apparent angle of 43.0° above the horizontal. What is the actual elevation angle of
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The actual elevation angle is 12.87 degrees

Explanation:

In the attachment you can clearly see the situation. The angle of elevation as seen for the scuba diver is shown in magenta, we conclude that \theta_2=90-43=47.

Using Snell's Law we can write:

n_1\sin(\theta_1)=n_2\sin(\theta_2)

\implies \sin(\theta_1)=\frac{n_2}{n_1}\sin(\theta_2),

Let's approximate the index of refraction of the air (medium 1 in the picture) to 1.

We thus have:

\sin(\theta_1)=n_2\sin(\theta_2)=1.333\sin(47)

\implies\theta_1=\arcsin[n_2\sin(\theta_2)]=\arcsin[1.333\sin(47)]\approx 77.13. Calling \alpha the actual angle of elevation, we get from the picture that \alpha=90-77.13=12.97

A light string is wrapped around the edge of the smaller disk, and a 1.50 kg block is suspended from the free end of the string.
LenaWriter [7]

Answer: 7.41 m/s

Explanation: By using the law of of energy, kinetic energy of the brick as it falls equals the potential energy before falling.

Kinetic energy = mv²/2, potential energy = mgh

mv²/2 = mgh

v²/2 = gh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

Where g = 9.8 m/s², h = 2.80m

v = √2×9.8×2.8 = 7.41 m/s

Uranium-235 decays to thorium-231 with a half-life of 700 million years. When a rock was formed, it contained 6400 million urani
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

proof in explanation

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the number of half-lives:

n = \frac{t}{t_{1/2}}

where,

n = no. of half-lives = ?

t = total time passed = 2100 million years

t_{1/2} = half-life = 700 million years

Therefore,

n = \frac{2100\ million\ years}{700\ million\ years}\\\\n = 3

Now, we will calculate the number of uranium nuclei left (n_u):

n_u = \frac{1}{2^{n} }(total\ nuclei)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{2^{3} }(6400\ million)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{8}(6400\ million)\\\\n_u =  800\ million

and the rest of the uranium nuclei will become thorium nuclei (u_{th})

n_{th} = total\ nuclei - n_u\\n_{th} = 6400\ million-800\ million\\n_{th} = 5600\ million

dividing both:

\frac{n_{th}}{n_u}=\frac{5600\ million}{800\ million} \\\\n_{th} = 7n_u

<u>Hence, it is proven that after 2100 million years there are seven times more thorium nuclei than uranium nuclei in the rock.</u>

A 100 N force is applied to a 500 kg crate resting on frictionless wheels.
Alla [95]

Answer:

<h2>0.2 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{100}{500}  =  \frac{1}{5}  = 0.2 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.2 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Describe the changes of motion when marble is moved from one viewpoint to another.
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

according to Newton First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia); An object at rest will stay at rest, forever, as long as nothing pushes or pulls on it. An object in motion will stay in motion, traveling in a straight line, forever, until something pushes or pulls on it.

the marble will move in a straight line
