Answer:

  B)  100 J

Explanation:

Assuming the distance given is measured along the incline, the vertical change in height is (5 m)(sin 30°) = 2.5 m. Then the change in potential energy is ...

  ∆PE = mg(∆h) = (4 kg)(10 m/s^2)(2.5 m) = 100 J

Two concentric current loops lie in the same plane. The smaller loop has a radius of 3.6 cm and a current of 12 A. The bigger lo
puteri [66]

Answer:

the radius of bigger loop = 6 cm

Explanation:

given,

two concentric current loops

smaller loop radius = 3.6 cm

]current in smaller loop = 12 A

current in the bigger loop = 20 A

magnetic field at the center of loop = 0

Radius of the bigger loop = ?

B_t = B_1 + B_2

0 = \dfrac{\mu_0I_1}{2R_1} +\dfrac{\mu_0I_2}{2R_2}

now, on solving

\dfrac{I_1}{R_1} = \dfrac{I_2}{R_2}

R_2 = I_2\dfrac{R_1}{I_1}

       = 20\times \dfrac{3.6}{12}

       = 6 cm

hence, the radius of bigger loop = 6 cm

Two forces whose resultant is 100N,are perpendicular to each other.if one of them makes an angle of 60° with the resultant, calc
DIA [1.3K]

Magnitude of the force = 50N

<u />

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let one force be X

And the second force be Y

Both the forces are perpendicular, so α = 90°

The resultant R of the two forces = 100N

Angle between resultant and 1 force, α = 60°

We know,

R² = X² + Y² + 2XYcos 90

100² = X² + Y²

If X makes an angle of Φ = 60°

Then, tan Ф =  Y sin α / X + Y cos α

Putting the values we find,

tan 60 = Y/X

Y  = √3X

Putting Y = √3X in equation 1 we get,

(X)² + (√3X)² = 100 X 100

4X² = 100 X 100

X² = 2500

X = 50N

Therefore, magnitude of the force = 50N

Answer:

Question 1: the plates are moving toward one another.

Question 2: The Himalayan Mountains in India

Question 3: Because mountains are formed instead.

Explanation:

The paragraph explains that the plates continue to move closer to one another while forming multiple mountains.

The paragraph explains, " a well-known example of this is the formation of the Himalayan Mountains in India,"

The area of the Himalayan Mountains are better suited for the formation of mountains rather than volcanoes.

Have a nice day!! Good Luck!! Brainliest would be appreciated!!!
