Answer:

Reflects

Explanation:

A metal spoon looks very shiny because its surface is very smooth, which is why it acts like a mirror and reflects light very well.

Force X has a magnitude of 1260 pounds, and Force Y has a magnitude of 1530 pounds. They act on a single point at an angle of 4

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Fe= 2579.68 P

α= 24.8°

Explanation:

Look at the attached graphic

we take the forces acting on the x-y plane and applied at the origin of coordinates

FX = 1260 P , horizontal (-x)

FY = 1530 P , forming 45° with positive x axis

x-y components FY

FYx= - 1530*cos(45)° = - 1081.87 P

FYy= - 1530*sin(45)° = - 1081.87 P

Calculation of the components of net force (Fn)

Fnx= FX + FYx

Fnx= -1260 P -1081.87 P

Fnx= -2341.87 P

Fny=FYy

Fny= -1081.87 P

Calculation of the components of equilibrant force (Fe)

the x-y components of the equilibrant force are equal in magnitude but in the opposite direction to the net force components:

Fnx= -2341.87 P, then, Fex= +2341.87 P

Fny= -1081.87 P P, then, Fex= +1081.87 P

Magnitude of the equilibrant (Fe)

$F_{n} = \sqrt{(F_{nx})^{2} +(F_{ny})^{2} }$

$F_{e} =\sqrt{(2341.87)^{2}+(1081.87)^{2} }$

Fe= 2579.68 P

Calculation of the direction of equilibrant force (α)

$\alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{F_{ny} }{F_{nx} } )$

$\alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{1081.87 }{2341.87} )$

α= 24.8°

What evidence do we have that Earth has a magnetic field surrounding the planet?

Ber [7]

A compass works the way it does because Earth has a magnetic field that looks a lot like the one in a magnet. The Earth's field is completely invisible, but it can be felt by a compass needle on the Earth's surface, and it reaches thousands of miles out into space.

What would happen if you use a thicker wire around the iron nail of an electromagnet? (thats the whole question)

puteri [66]

Answer:

When we have a current I, we will have a magnetic field perpendicular to this current.

Then if we have a wire in a "spring" form. then we will have a magnetic field along the center of this "spring".

Now suppose we put an iron object in the middle (where the magnetic field is) then we will magnetize the iron object.

Of course, the intensity of the magnetic field is proportional to the current, given by:

B = (μ*I)/(2*π*r)

Where:

μ is a constant, I is the current and r is the distance between to the current.

Now remember that for a resistor:

R = ρ*L/A

R is the resistance, ρ is the resistivity, which depends on the material of the wire, L is the length of the wire, and A is the cross-section of the wire.

If we increase the area of the wire (if we use a thicker wire).

And the relation between resistance and current is:

I = V/R

Where V is the voltaje.

Now, if we use a thicker wire, then the cross-section area of the wire increases.

Notice in the resistance equation, that the cross-section area is on the denominator, then if we increase the area A, the resistance decreases.

And the resistance is on the denominator of the current equation, then if we decrease R, the current increases.

If the current increases, the magnetic field increases, which means that we will have a stronger electromagnet.

a 1 m length of string is wrapped around a solid disk, of mass .25 kg and a radius of .30m, mounted on a frictionless axle. the

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

60 rad/s

Explanation:

∑τ = Iα

Fr = Iα

For a solid disc, I = ½ mr².

Fr = ½ mr² α

α = 2F / (mr)

α = 2 (20 N) / (0.25 kg × 0.30 m)

α = 533.33 rad/s²

The arc length is 1 m, so the angle is:

s = rθ

1 m = 0.30 m θ

θ = 3.33 rad

Use constant acceleration equation to find ω.

ω² = ω₀² + 2αΔθ

ω² = (0 rad/s)² + 2 (533.33 rad/s²) (3.33 rad)

ω = 59.6 rad/s

Rounding to one significant figure, the angular velocity is 60 rad/s.
