What causes the earth's magnetic field?

Physics
1 answer:
Diano4ka-milaya [45]3 years ago

The same energy source that powers plate tectonics is also responsible for for the Earth's dynamo. Energy is released when material from our planets liquid core cools and solidifies onto the solid core. This energy stirs up the motions of the liquid core, and these motions generate a magnetic field.While there is also fluid motion in the mantle, it does not produces an appreciable magnetic field : The silicon rich rocks that comprises the mantle are poor conductors of electricity, and their motions are million times slower than those in the outer core. Hope this helps!

The speed of a 500 g cricket ball changes from 10m/s to 30m/s in just 7 seconds. What is the force acting on the cart?
9966 [12]

The force acting on the cart is 1.43 N.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force can be defined as the product of mass and acceleration.

To calculate the force acting on the cart, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • F = m(v-u)/t................. Equation 1

Where:

  • F = Force acting on the cart
  • m = mass of the cart
  • v = Final velocity
  • u = initial velocity
  • t = time

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 500 g = 0.5 kg
  • v = 30 m/s
  • u = 10 m/s
  • t = 7 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • F = 0.5(30-10)/7
  • F = 10/7
  • F = 1.43 N.

Hence, the force acting on the cart is 1.43 N.

a. How many excess electrons must be distributed uniformly within the volume of an isolated plastic sphere 25.0 cm in diameter t
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The electric field outside the sphere is given as,

E = k Q /r²

here Q = n x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

where n is the number of electons

if the dimeter of sphere d= 25 cm= 0.25 m

then the radius r = 0.125 m

we get

n= E r²/ k x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

n = 1350N/C x (0.125m)² / (8.99 x 10⁹ N m²/C² x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)

n = 14664731646

What is the momentum of a car with a mass of 1,300 kg traveling at a speed of 28 m/s?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 36,400 kgm/s</h3>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>momentum = mass × velocity</h3>

From the question

mass = 1,300 kg

speed / velocity = 28 m/s

We have

momentum = 1,300 × 28

We have the final answer as

<h3>36,400 kgm/s</h3>

Hope this helps you
