Consider the following situation, in which a compass is influenced by not only the force of Earth's magnetic field, but also an

additional applied force.
1. Which of the following is true of the angle of deflection of the compass relative to FEarth if FEarth > FApplied?

a. The angle of deflection will be exactly 45°
b. The angle of deflection will be greater than 90°
c. The angle of deflection will be less than 45°
d. The angle of deflection will be exactly 0°
e. The angle of deflection will be greater than 45° but less than 90°

2. Which of the following is true of the angle of deflection of the compass relative to FEarth if FEarth < FApplied?

a. The angle of deflection will be exactly 45°
b. The angle of deflection will be greater than 90°
c. The angle of deflection will be less than 45°
d. The angle of deflection will be exactly 0°
e. The angle of deflection will be greater than 45° but less than 90°

Answer:

1) The angle of deflection will be less than 45° ( C )

2)  The angle of deflection will be greater than 45° but less than 90° ( E )

Explanation:

1) Assuming that the force applied  has a direction which is perpendicular to the Earth's magnetic field

∴ Fearth > Fapplied   hence the angle of deflection will be < 45°

2) when the Fearth < Fapplied

the angle of deflection will be :   > 45°  but  < 90°

The speed of the center of the earth as it orbits the sun is 107257 kmph and the absolute angular velocity of the earth about it
Sindrei [870]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Speed ,v_0=107257 kmph

Angular velocity,\omega=7.292\times 10^{-5} rad/s

Radius of earth,r=6371 km=6371000 m

1 km=1000 m

Linear velocity,v=r\omega=6371000\times 7.292\times 10^{-5}=464.57 m/s

Linear velocity,v=464.57\times \frac{18}{5}=1672.46 km/h

Velocity at point A,v_A=-vi+v_0 j=-1672.46 i+107257j kmph

Velocity at point B,v_B=v_0j-vj=107257j-1672.46j=105584.54j kmph

Velocity at point C,v_C=v_0j+vi=1672.46 i+107257j kmph

Velocity at point  D,v_D=v_0j+vj=107257j+1672.46j=108929.46jkmph

What type of plate boundary decreases the amount of the Earth's crust?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Convergent.

Explanation:

Just as oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges, it is destroyed in subduction zones. Subduction is the important geologic process in which a tectonic plate made of dense lithospheric material melts or falls below a plate made of less-dense lithosphere at a convergent plate boundary.

The two particles are both moving to the right. Particle 1 catches up with particle 2 and collides with it. The particles stick
Travka [436]

Answer:

c. vf is greator than v2, but less than v1

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that when two or more bodies act upon one another, their total momentum remains constant.

In a system of colliding bodies the total momentum of the system just before the collision is the same as the total momentum just after the collision.  

Collisions in which the kinetic energy is conserved are called elastic collision.

Collisions in which the kinetic energy is not conserved are called inelastic collisions.  If the two objects stick together after the collision and move with a common velocity, the collision is said to be perfectly inelastic.

<em>The above scenario is a perfectly inelastic collision. The initial velocity of particle 1 was greater than particle 2 before collision. After collision, its velocity will reduce to a final velocity vf as it transfers some of its kinetic energy to particle 2; whereas, the velocity of particle 2 will increase to a final velocity vf as it absorbs some of the kinetic energy of particle 1.</em>

Therefore,

a. vf = v2 is wrong because vf is greater than v2

b. vf is less than v2 is wrong because vf is greater than v2

c. vf is greater than v2, but less than v1 is correct.

d. vf = v1 is wrong because vf is less than v1
