Answer:

Student A is correct.

Explanation:

An electromagnet can be defined as the magnet that is produced by the electric current passing through a wire surrounding a metal piece. In an  electric motor, magnets surrounds the the coil carrying currents. Because of the magnetic field, the current carrying coil experiences a force and it starts to rotate. Thus the electric motors uses the forces between the electromagnets to start running.

Therefore, student A is correct.

drek231 [11]

Answer:

0.1 A

Explanation:

From the question,

V = IR............ Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = Resistance.

Given: I = 0.2 A, R = 10 ohms.

Substitute into equation 1

V = 0.2(10)

V = 2 volt,

If the resistor is replaced with a 20 resistor, The nwe current is

I = V/R................ Equation 2

I = 2/20

I = 0.1 A

Describe what a planetesimal is. Is it related to a protoplanet?
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

A planetesimal is an object formed from dust, rock, and other materials. The word has its roots in the concept infinitesimal, which indicates an object too small to see or measure. Planetesimals can be anywhere in size from several meters to hundreds of kilometers.

Protoplanets are thought to form out of kilometer-sized planetesimals that gravitationally perturb each other's orbits and collide, gradually coalescing into the dominant planets.

Spitting cobras can defend themselves by squeezing muscles around their venom glands to squirt venom at an attacker. Suppose a s
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: 1.289 m

Explanation:

The path the cobra's venom follows since it is spitted until it hits the ground, is described by a parabola. Hence, the equations for parabolic motion (which has two components) can be applied to solve this problem:

<u>x-component: </u>

x=V_{o}cos\theta t  (1)

Where:

x is the horizontal distance traveled by the venom

V_{o}=3.10 m/s is the venom's initial speed

\theta=47\° is the angle

t is the time since the venom is spitted until it hits the ground

<u>y-component: </u>

y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t+\frac{gt^{2}}{2}   (2)

Where:

y_{o}=0.44 m  is the initial height of the venom

y=0  is the final height of the venom (when it finally hits the ground)

g=-9.8m/s^{2}  is the acceleration due gravity

Let's begin with (2) to find the time it takes the complete path:

0=0.44 m+3.10 m/s sin\theta(47\°)+\frac{-9.8m/s^{2} t^{2}}{2}   (3)

Rewritting (3):

-4.9 m/s^{2} t^{2} + 2.267 m/s t + 0.44 m=0   (4)

This is a quadratic equation (also called equation of the second degree) of the form at^{2}+bt+c=0, which can be solved with the following formula:

t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a} (5)

Where:

a=-4.9 m/s^{2

b=2.267 m/s

c=0.44 m

Substituting the known values:

t=\frac{-2.267 \pm \sqrt{2.267^{2}-4(-4.9)(0.44)}}{2(-4.9)} (6)

Solving (6) we find the positive result is:

t=0.609 s (7)

Substituting (7) in (1):

x=(3.10 m/s)cos(47\°)(0.609 s)  (8)

We finally find the horizontal distance traveled by the venom:

x=1.289 m

A ball strikes a wall. It exerts a force of 10 N to the left against the wall and bounces off. What force does the wall exert on
Galina-37 [17]
The wall exerts a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction. So the force by the wall is 10 N to the right.
