Answer:

Hey

Yes, this is true.

As some people have it wrong, waves in the water (ocean) are not waves of moving water, rather the wave is moving through the water. A wave is a disturbance of a medium not the meduim moving.

A wire is formed into a circle having a diameter of 11.1 cm and is placed in a uniform magnetic field of 2.79 mT. The wire carri
Ber [7]

Answer:

Maximum torque on the wire is 1.34\times 10^{-4}\ N-m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of the wire, d = 11.1 cm = 0.111 m

Radius of wire, r = 0.0555 m

Magnetic field, B=2.79\ mT=0.00279\ T

Current, I = 5 A

We need to find the maximum torque on the wire. Torque is given by :

\tau=IAB\ sin\theta

Torque is maximum when, \theta=90

\tau=IAB

\tau=5\times \pi \times (0.0555)^2\times 0.00279

\tau=0.000134\ N-m

or

\tau=1.34\times 10^{-4}\ N-m

So, the maximum toque on the wire is 1.34\times 10^{-4}\ N-m. Hence, this is the required solution.

Choose the correct statement regarding the behavior of water. a. The water phase with the highest heat capacity is gas vapor. b.
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

D. The ice-to-liquid phase change of water requires less energy than the liquid-to-vapor phase.

Explanation:

In the phase change from liquid to gas, the bonds between atoms are completely broken. The phase change from liquid to gas requires more energy because the bonds must be completely broken for it to take place, rather than just loosened as in the phase change of solid to liquid.

Phase changes can have a strong stabilizing effect on temperatures that are not near the melting and boiling points, since evaporation and condensation occur even at temperatures below the boiling point.

More energy is required to evaporate water below the boiling point than at the boiling point, because the kinetic energy of water molecules at temperatures below 100°C is less than that at 100°C, so less energy is available from random thermal motions.
