When considering a magnet's force of attraction over a known distance, you would expect the strength of attraction 4 inches away from the magnet to be 16 times weaker than the strength of attraction at 1 inch from the magnet.

Answer: option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

The magnetic force of attraction is inversely dependent on the distance between the object and the magnet. That is the magnetic force of attraction is inverse proportional relation with the square of the distance between the object and the magnet.

Therefore, when the distance is 4 inches away, the magnetic force of attraction would be square of the distance that is 16 times. And as it is away, the force will be weaker.

C. 16 times
Because depending on this ... (4)^2= 16
And (1)^2 =1

What is the reaction force of the table with a weight of 558N
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: reaction force = -558N

Explanation:

w = f = 558N

since action force and reaction force are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction,

reaction force = -(f)

reaction force = -558N

if that helps.

Answer:

here you go boi

Explanation:

Image result for The energy from the sun can be used in many different ways. Describe two examples of how humans use the energy from the sun in their everyday lives. Make sure that one of your examples includes an energy transformation and explain the form it takes after it is transformed.

Solar energy is transformed into other energy forms for our use on Earth – energy for food (chemical energy), electrical energy and heat energy. Energy from the Sun is transformed into chemical energy, which is passed along in a food chain. Without the Sun, there would be no life on Earth

Am radio signals have frequencies between 550 khz and 1600 khz (kilohertz) and travel with a speed of 3.00 ✕ 108 m/s. what are t
Allisa [31]
The minimum frequency is 
f_1 = 550 kHz = 5.50 \cdot 10^5 Hz
while the maximum frequency is
f_2 = 1600 kHz = 1.6 \cdot 10^6 Hz
Using the relationship between frequency f of a wave, wavelength \lambda and the speed of the wave v, we can find what wavelength these frequencies correspond to:
\lambda_1 =  \frac{v}{f_1}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{5.5 \cdot 10^5 Hz}=545 m
\lambda_2 =  \frac{v}{f_2}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.6 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=188 m

So, the wavelengths of the radio waves of the problem are within the range 188-545 m.
