Does passing a magnet through a coil of wire break off it’s electric current

A magnetic field is actually generated by a moving current (or moving electric charge specifically). The magnetic field generated by a moving current can be found by using the right hand rule, point your right thumb in the direction of current flow, then the wrap of your fingers will tell you what direction the magnetic field is. In the case of current traveling up a wire, the magnetic field generated will encircle the wire. Similarly electromagnets work by having a wire coil, and causing current to spin in a circle, generating a magnetic field perpendicular to the current flow (again right hand rule).

So if you were to take a permenant magnet and cut a hole in it then string a straight wire through it... my guess is nothing too interesting would happen. The two different magnetic fields might ineteract in a peculiar way, but nothing too fascinating, perhaps if you give me more context as to what you might think would happen or what made you come up with this question I could help.

If an object accelerates from rest, with a constant of 8 m/s2, what will its velocity be after 35s?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

<em>Its speed will be 280 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the speed of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

If a is the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, vf can be calculated as:

$v_f=v_o+at$

The object accelerates from rest (vo=0) at a constant acceleration of $a=8\ m/s^2$ . The final speed at t=35 seconds is:

$v_f=0+8*35$

$v_f=280\ m/s$

Its speed will be 280 m/s

Some benefits to solar power:
Isolated power is very abundant on earth.
Is very sustainable (5 billion years of good use)
Eco friendly excluding panel production.
Some disadvantages:
Very expensive to set up
Takes up a lot of space per person
Requires exotic materials to construct
Energy storage is difficult with solar cells compared to fossil fuels.

A positively charged metal sphere, A, is held close to but not touching and identical uncharged sphere, sphere B. Sphere A is no

Yuri [45]

Answer:

The sphere C carries no net charge.

Explanation:

When brougth close to the charged sphere A, as charges can move freely in a conductor, a charge equal and opposite to the one on the sphere A, appears on the sphere B surface facing to the sphere A.
As sphere B must remain neutral (due to the principle of conservation of charge) an equal charge, but of opposite sign, goes to the surface also, on the opposite part of the sphere.
If sphere A is removed, a charge movement happens in the sphere B, in such a way, that no net charge remains on the surface.
If in such state, if the sphere B (assumed again uncharged completely, without any local charges on the surface), is touched by an initially uncharged sphere C, due to the conservation of charge principle, no net charge can be built on sphere C.
