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°

What is a constellation as astronomers define it today? What does it mean when an astronomer says, “I saw a comet in Orion last
MissTica

Explanation:

Constellation: The complete sky has been divided in 88 different areas, in a way we have divided Earth in countries, not necessarily having same shapes and size. These 88 areas are known as constellations. These contains a lot of stars. When we join the brightest stars together we can imagine a shape out of them which is called as Asterism. Most of the people are unaware of this difference. Some of the famous constellations are Orion, Taurus, Gemini, Hydra, Ursa Major etc.

When an astronomer says that there is a comet is in the Orion, he means that a comet is in the boundaries of Orion constellation.

If the torque required to loosen a nut that holds a wheel on a car has a magnitude of 55 n·m, what force must be exerted at the
erastova [34]

Either 175 N or 157 N depending upon how the value of 48° was measured from.    
You didn't mention if the angle of 48° is from the lug wrench itself, or if it's from the normal to the lug wrench. So I'll solve for both cases and you'll need to select the desired answer.    
Since we need a torque of 55 N·m to loosen the nut and our lug wrench is 0.47 m long, that means that we need 55 N·m / 0.47 m = 117 N of usefully applied force in order to loosen the nut. This figure will be used for both possible angles.    
Ideally, the force will have a 0° degree difference from the normal and 100% of the force will be usefully applied. Any value greater than 0° will have the exerted force reduced by the cosine of the angle from the normal. Hence the term "cosine loss".     
If the angle of 48° is from the normal to the lug wrench, the usefully applied power will be:  
U = F*cos(48)  
where  
U = Useful force  
F = Force applied    
So solving for F and calculating gives:  
U = F*cos(48)  
U/cos(48) = F  
117 N/0.669130606 = F  
174.8537563 N = F    
So 175 Newtons of force is required in this situation.    
If the 48° is from the lug wrench itself, that means that the force is 90° - 48° = 42° from the normal. So doing the calculation again (this time from where we started plugging in values) we get  
U/cos(42) = F  
117/0.743144825 = F  
157.4390294 = F    
Or 157 Newtons is required for this case.

Three charges are enclosed inside a spherical closed surface. The net flux through the surface is −216 N · m2/C. If two of the c
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

q₃ = -4.81 nC

Explanation:

We can use the Gauss Law here:

∅ = q/∈₀

where,

∅ = Net Flux = - 216 N.m²/C

q = total charge enclosed inside sphere = ?

∈₀ = permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹² C/N.m²

Therefore,

- 216 N.m²/C = q / 8.85 x 10⁻¹² C²/N.m²

q = (-216 N.m²/C)(8.85 x 10⁻¹² C²/N.m²)

q = - 1.91 nC

So, the total charge will be sum of all three charges:

q = q₁ + q₂ + q₃

- 1.91 nC = 1.74 nC + 1.16 nC + q₃

q₃ = - 1.91 nC - 1.74 nC - 1.16 nC

<u>q₃ = -4.81 nC</u>
