Answer:

Explanation:

Earth rotates once in about 24 hours with respect to the Sun, but once every 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds with respect to other, distant, stars. Earth's rotation is slowing slightly with time; thus, a day was shorter in the past. This is due to the tidal effects the Moon has on Earth's rotation.

What current is needed in the solenoid's wires?

marta [7]

Using Ampere's Law, the magnetic field produced inside this solenoid is given by
B = uo N I / h
where uo is the vacuum permeability, N is the number of turns in the solenoid and h is the length of the solenoid. Earth's magnetic field is around 50 microteslas in North America thus the current needed in the solenoid is
I = B h / (uo N) = (50 E-6 ) (4) / ((4 pi E-7)(6000) ) = 0.026 A
I = 26 mA
So you need a current of around 26 mA.

A mechanic uses a jack to lift up a car. He exerts a force of 11,000 N at a distance of 3m from the axis of rotation. How much t

pshichka [43]

Answer:

<h2>The amount of torque put on the car is 33,000Nm</h2>

Explanation:

Formula for calculating torque is expressed as T = rFsin $\theta\\$ where;

r is the radius of the of the arm of the jack = 3m

F is the force exerted = 11000

$\theta\\$ is the angle of rotation = 90°

On substituting;

$T = 3*11000sin90^{o} \\T = 3*11000 (sin90^{o} =1)\\T = 33000Nm$

A pendulum is raised to a height of 0.3m above its lowest point and released. What is the velocity of the pendulum at its lowest

enyata [817]

Answer:

v = 2,425 m / s

Explanation:

A simple pendulum has anergy stored at the highest point of the path and this energy is conserved throughout the movement.

highest point

Em₀ = U = m g y

lowest point

$Em_{f}$ = K = ½ m v²

Em₀ = Em_{f}

mg y = ½ m v²

v = √ 2gy

let's calculate

v = √ (2 9.8 0.3)

v = 2,425 m / s
