A box of paper is labeled 24lb paper. This means that 500 sheets (counted number) of paper size 17in x 22in weighs 24 pounds (Th

e paper industry in the US has not switched over to metric.). On earth, 1.0lb, using the standard acceleration of gravity, corresponds to 453.6g. Calculate the mass of a single piece of paper that measures 21.59cm x 27.94cm

Answer:

The mass of a single paper  is approximately 0.047 lb/paper which in SI Units is approximately 21.77  g/paper

Explanation:

The given information on the size and the weight of paper are;

The mass of a box of 500 sheets of paper = 24 lb

The number of sheets in the paper = 500 sheets

The dimensions of the paper = 17 in. × 22 in., which is equivalent to  43.18 cm × 55.88 cm

The mass of a single paper = The mass of the box of paper/(The number of sheets of paper present in the box)

The mass of a single paper = 24 lb/500 = 0.047 lb/paper

Given that 1 lb = 453.6 g, we have;

0.047 lb/paper = 0.047 lb/paper×453.6 g/(lb) = 21.77  g/paper

The mass of a single paper  = 0.047 lb/paper = 21.77  g/paper.

A car of mass 1600 kg can just be lifted what is the least force that the electronicmagnet must use to lift the car ?
Mkey [24]

The car's mass is 1600 kg.

Its weight is (mass) x (gravity).  

On Earth, that's (1600 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)  =  15,680 Newtons.

At the moment, that's the only force acting on the car, directed downward and provided by gravity.

If you want to lift the car, then the net force has to be directed upward, and must either exactly cancel or exceed the force of gravity.

So the minimum force required to lift the car is <em>15,680 Newtons</em>, directed vertically upward.

A long, straight wire lies in the plane of a circular coil with a radius of 0.018 m. the wire carries a current of 5.6 a and is
iris [78.8K]
(a) The net flux through the coil is zero.
In fact, the magnetic field generated by the wire forms concentric circles around the wire. The wire is placed along the diameter of the coil, so we can imagine as it divides the  coil into two emisphere. Therefore, the magnetic field of the wire is perpendicular to the plane of the coil, but the direction of the field is opposite in the two emispheres. Since the two emispheres have same area, then the magnetic fluxes in the two emispheres are equal but opposite in sign, and so they cancel out when summing them together to find the net flux.

(b) If the wire passes through the center of the coil but it is perpendicular to the plane of the wire, the net flux through the coil is still zero.
In fact, the magnetic field generated by the wire forms concentric lines around the wire, so it is parallel to the plane of the coil. But the flux is equal to
\Phi = BA \cos \theta
where \theta is the angle between the direction of the magnetic field and the perpendicular to the plane of the coil, so in this case \theta=90^{\circ} and so the cosine is zero, therefore the net flux is zero.

Answer:

you mean this halo right

Explanation:

Halo is an American military science fiction media franchise managed and developed by 343 Industries and published by Xbox Game Studios. The franchise and its early main installments were originally developed by Bungie. The central focus of the franchise builds off the experiences of Master Chief John-117, one of a group of supersoldiers codenamed Spartans, and his artificial intelligence (AI) companion, Cortana.

The original trilogy centers on an interstellar war between humanity and an alliance of aliens known as the Covenant. The Covenant, led by their religious leaders called the Prophets, worship an ancient civilization known as the Forerunners, who perished while defeating the parasitic Flood. The eponymous Halo Array are a group of immense, habitable, ring-shaped superweapons that were created by the Forerunners to destroy the Flood, but which the Covenant mistake for religious artifacts that, if activated, would transport them on a Great Journey to meet the Forerunners. They are similar to the Orbitals in Iain M. Banks' Culture novels, and to a lesser degree to author Larry Niven's Ringworld concept.[1][2][3][4]

The games in the series are critically acclaimed, with the original considered the Xbox's "killer app".[5] This led to the term "Halo killer" being used to describe console games that aspire, or are considered, to be better than Halo.[6] Fueled by the success of Halo: Combat Evolved, and by marketing campaigns from publisher Microsoft, its sequels went on to record-breaking sales.[7][8][9] The games have sold over 65 million copies worldwide, with the games alone grossing almost $3.4 billion.[10][11][12] Halo has since become one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time. These strong sales led to the franchise's expansion to other media; the Halo Universe now spans multiple best-selling novels, graphic novels, comic books, short movies, animated movies and feature films, as well as other licensed products.
