Answer:

Molten iron and metals in the earth's core

Explanation:

The core of earth consists of molten iron and metals which are continuously spinned due to the rotation of earth. This spinning of earth produces result equivalent to “passing of electric current through a coil to produce magnetic field”. The neutral particles in the core are charged and thus the flow of neutrally charged particle creates a magnetic field.

A marble, rolling with speed of 20m/sec rolls off the edge of the table that is 180m high (g=10m/sec2), find time taken to drop
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

<em>Choice: c. 6sec</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Launch </u>

When an object is thrown horizontally with a speed (v) from a height (h), it describes a curved path ruled by gravity until it finally hits the ground.

The horizontal component of the velocity is always constant because no acceleration exists in that direction, thus:

v_x=v

The vertical component of the velocity changes in time because gravity makes the object fall at increasing speed given by:

v_y=g.t

Where g=10 m/s^2

To calculate the time the object takes to hit the ground, we use the same formula as for free-fall, since the time does not depend on the initial speed:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

The marble rolls the edge of the table at a height of h=180 m, thus:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2*180}{10}}

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{36}

t = 6 sec

Choice: c. 6sec

If the potential due to a point charge is 490 V at a distance of 10 m, what are the sign and magnitude of the charge?
uysha [10]

Answer:

+5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Explanation:

Electric potential: This can be defined as the work done in bringing a unit charge from infinity to that point against the action of the field. The S.I unit of potential is volt (V)

The formula for potential is

V = kq/r............................ Equation 1

Where V = electric potential, k = proportionality constant, q = charge, r = distance.

making q the subject of the equation,

q = Vr/k............................ Equation 2

Given: V = 490 V, r = 10 m,

Constant: k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute into equation 2

q = 490(10)/(9×10⁹)

q = 5.4×10⁻⁷ C

q = +5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Hence the charge is +5.4×10⁻⁷ C

An ideal parallel - plate capacitor consists of two parallel plates of area A separated by a distance d. This capacitor is conne
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The capacitance is cut in half.

Explanation:

The capacitance of a plate capacitor is directly proportional to the area A of the plates and inversely proportional to the distance between the plates d. So if the distance was doubled we should expect that the capacitance would be cut in half. That can be verified by the following equation that is used to compute the capacitance in such cases:

C = (\epsilon)*(A/d)

Where \epsilon is a constant that represents the characteristics for the insulator between the plates. A is the area of the plates and d is the distance between them. When we double d we have a new capacitance, given by:

C_new = (\epsilon)*(A/2d)

C_new = (1/2)*[(\epsilon)*(A/d)]

Since C = (\epsilon)*(A/d)] we have:

C_new = (1/2)*C

Extend the life of your __________ by avoiding fast starts, stops and sharp turns.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Tires.

Explanation:

There are the few steps which are discussed below should be taken to increase or extend the life of tires.

(1) Avoid fast starts: Fast start of the vehicle will increase the pressure on the tires due to the friction between the tires and the road will decrease the life of tires.

(2)  Avoid fast stop: Fast stop of the vehicle will also increase the pressure on the tires due to the friction between the tires and the road will decrease the life of tires.

(3) Avoid sharp turns: The alignment of the wheels and tires are in such a way that they work properly when vehicle is drive in a straight path but sharp turn will increase the uneven pressure on the tires will lead to decrease the life of tires.

Therefore, the life of tires can be extend by avoiding all the above mention actions such as fast stop, start and sharp turns.
