Answer:

-0.01 mm

Explanation:

We are given that

The value of one division of vernier scale =0.5 mm

The value of one main scale division=0.49 mm

We have to find the value of least count of the instrument in mm.

We know that

Leas count of vernier caliper=1 main scale division-1 vernier scale division

Least count of vernier caliper=0.49-0.50=-0.01 mm

Hence, the least count of the instrument=-0.01 mm

Answer: -0.01 mm

What would happen if you use a thicker wire around the iron nail of an electromagnet? (thats the whole question)

puteri [66]

Answer:

When we have a current I, we will have a magnetic field perpendicular to this current.

Then if we have a wire in a "spring" form. then we will have a magnetic field along the center of this "spring".

Now suppose we put an iron object in the middle (where the magnetic field is) then we will magnetize the iron object.

Of course, the intensity of the magnetic field is proportional to the current, given by:

B = (μ*I)/(2*π*r)

Where:

μ is a constant, I is the current and r is the distance between to the current.

Now remember that for a resistor:

R = ρ*L/A

R is the resistance, ρ is the resistivity, which depends on the material of the wire, L is the length of the wire, and A is the cross-section of the wire.

If we increase the area of the wire (if we use a thicker wire).

And the relation between resistance and current is:

I = V/R

Where V is the voltaje.

Now, if we use a thicker wire, then the cross-section area of the wire increases.

Notice in the resistance equation, that the cross-section area is on the denominator, then if we increase the area A, the resistance decreases.

And the resistance is on the denominator of the current equation, then if we decrease R, the current increases.

If the current increases, the magnetic field increases, which means that we will have a stronger electromagnet.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

All the energy sources are correctly matched with their category.

Explanation:

Renewable energy sources:

These are energy sources which can be replenished as they don't in involves the irreversible phase change.

These resources can never be ended as they can be used again and again.

Wind, geothermal, biomass, bio gas are example of renewable energy sources.

Non renewable energy sources:

These are the energy source which can never be replenished after one time use. They undergo the chemical irreversible change.

These sources are lacking with the passage of time because they can never be reused.

Oil, gas, coal and natural gas are examples.

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ram

Sonbull [250]

<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ramps.Which statement is TRUE?

answer choices

Marble 1 has a faster speed than Marble 2.

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Both the marbles travel at the same speed.

There is not enough data to compare the speeds of marbles.

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Option B.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time. Here in the question, 2 balls cover equal distances in same time.

Time taken by the ball = 10 seconds.

Distance covered by 1st ball = 20 cm.

Distance covered by 2nd ball = 3cm.

So speed of the 1st ball = 2cm/sec.

Speed of the 2nd ball = 3 cm /sec.

So,it's very much evident that speed of 2nd Marble is much higher than the speed of the 1st marble.

A sample of helium (He) occupies 8.0 liters at 1 atm and 20.0◦C. What pressure is necessary to change the volume to 1.0 liters a

nevsk [136]

Apply the combined gas law

PV/T = const.

P = pressure, V = volume, T = temperature, PV/T must stay constant.

Initial PVT values:

P = 1atm, V = 8.0L, T = 20.0°C = 293.15K

Final PVT values:

P = ?, V = 1.0L, T = 10.0°C = 283.15K

Set the PV/T expression for the initial and final PVT values equal to each other and solve for the final P:

1(8.0)/293.15 = P(1.0)/283.15

P = 7.7atm
