A magnet is any object that has a magnetic field. It attracts ferrous objects like pieces of iron, steel, nickel and cobalt. In the early days, the Greeks observed that the naturally occurring 'lodestone' attracted iron pieces. From that day onwards began the journey into the discovery of magnets.
These days magnets are made artificially in various shapes and sizes depending on their use. One of the most common magnets - the bar magnet - is a long, rectangular bar of uniform cross-section that attracts pieces of ferrous objects. The magnetic compass needle is also commonly used. The compass needle is a tiny magnet which is free to move horizontally on a pivot. One end of the compass needle points in the North direction and the other end points in the South direction.
The end of a freely pivoted magnet will always point in the North-South direction. The end that points in the North is called the North Pole of the magnet and the end that points South is called the South Pole of the magnet. It has been proven by experiments that like magnetic poles repel each other whereas unlike poles attract each other.
Answer:
P-waves travel through liquids and solid while S-waves only travel through solids.
Explanation:
Scientists are able to use the fact that P-waves travel through both solids and liquids and waves travel through only solids to determine what makes the different layers of the Earth.
Average acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
In this case . . .
Average acceleration = (speed at the end - speed at the beginning)/10sec.
We can't be any more specific without knowing the difference
between the beginning speed and the ending speed.
Its 1.73793151243 as a whole but if rounded it is 1.74
Answer:
Correct option : (c) period.
Explanation:
The time that is required for a vibrating object to complete one full cycle is called the time period. If f is the frequency of a wave, then the relation between the frequency and the time period is given by :
These are the characteristics of a wave. Some other characteristics are wavelength, amplitude, intensity etc. So, the correct option is (c) "period".
