Answer: False

Explanation: A magnetic compass does not point to the geographic north pole. A magnetic compass points to the earth's magnetic poles, which are not the same as earth's geographic poles. Furthermore, the magnetic pole near earth's geographic north pole is actually the south magnetic pole.

A very thin oil film (n = 1.25) floats on water (n = 1.33). What is the thinnest film that produces a strong reflection for gree
mixer [17]

Answer:

200 nm is the thinnest film that produces a strong reflection for green light with a wavelength of 500 nm

Explanation:

If two reflected waves interfere constructively ,strong reflection is produced. Two reflected waves will experience a phase change

For constructive interference

2\times n\times t=m\lambda

for thinnest film m=1

refractive index should be taken for film n=1.25

thickness of the thinnest film is

t=\frac{m\lambda}{2n} \\t=\frac{1\times 500}{2\times 1.25} \\t=200 nm

What role does gravity play in the weight of an object?
earnstyle [38]
In physics, weight is a measure of the force exerted by gravity on a mass.

You probably know that you weigh less on the Moon than on Earth. For instance, if you weigh 100. pounds on Earth, you will weigh 16.6 pounds on the Moon. But, if your mass on Earth is 100 kg, your mass on the Moon is... also 100 kg. Because the amount of matter you have does not change from the Earth to the Moon, but the gravitational force on the Earth is stronger than on the Moon, so you weigh more on Earth.

You can think of gravity pulling a mass toward the center of an object like the Earth. It pulls a lot harder for more massive objects like the Earth than for the Moon. That's why there's a difference in weight.

As a caveat, adding energy or mass to an object will affect its mass. Additionally, general relativity informs us that when something as traveling very near the speed of light, the whole idea of mass equivalency is not exactly true...

Find an expression for the minimum frictional coefficient needed to keep a car with speed v on a banked turn of radius R designe
solniwko [45]
"v0" means that there are no friction forces at that speed
<span>mgsinΘ = (mv0²/r)cosΘ → the variable m cancels </span>
<span>sinΘ/cosΘ = tanΘ = v0² / gr 
</span><span>Θ = arctan(v0² / gr) </span>

<span>When v > v0, friction points downslope: </span>
<span>mgsinΘ + µ(mgcosΘ + (mv²/r)sinΘ) = (mv²/r)cosΘ → m cancels: </span>
<span>gsinΘ + µ(gcosΘ + (v²/r)sinΘ) = (v²/r)cosΘ </span>
<span>µ = ((v²/r)cosΘ - gsinΘ) / (gcosΘ + (v²/r)sinΘ) </span>
<span>where Θ is defined above. </span>

<span>When v > v0, friction points upslope: </span>
<span>mgsinΘ - µ(mgcosΘ + (mv²/r)sinΘ) = (mv²/r)cosΘ → m cancels: </span>
<span>gsinΘ - µ(gcosΘ + (v²/r)sinΘ) = (v²/r)cosΘ </span>
<span>µ = (gsinΘ - (v²/r)cosΘ) / (gcosΘ + (v²/r)sinΘ) </span>
<span>where Θ is defined above. </span>

Plz help me with this!
vagabundo [1.1K]
A conductor is something which allows electricity to pass through it
an example is a coin
An insulator is something which cannot allow electricity to pass through it
an example is plastic (or plastic cotton reel, plastic container ect.)
Static electricity is when you rub two things together to create static

I'm not sure if i helped on the last question but i am definitely sure of the first ones
