The alchemists were trying to convert lead and copper into gold.
Answer:
If it points the other way, the fields subtract, for a lower energy, and so the magnet prefers to turn to point in this way. Magnets in uniform fields feel torques which make them turn around if they are not pointing in the right direction, but there is no net force making the magnet want to levitate.
Explanation:
In physics, there are empirical values for common important parameters. For example, the speed of sound is equal to 340 meters per second. Unlike the speed of light, the speed of sound is dependent on temperature and pressure. But in standard room conditions, the speed is 340 m/s. Using this value of speed, we can find the depth given the time. You should also note that the distance the echo travels is exactly the same distance that object travelled. Therefore,
Distance = 340 m/s * 6 seconds
Distance = 2,040 meters deep
Answer:
33.33 seconds
Explanation:

= Initial length pulled = 20 cm
b = Damping constant = 0.015 kg/s
k = Spring constant = 4 N/m
m = Mass of glider = 250 g
Time period is given by

Using exponential decay formula

Final amplitude = Initial times decay

The time taken is 33.33 seconds
