a coefficient of fraction is a value that shows the relationship between two objects and the normal reaction between the objects that are involved.

A long, fine wire is wound into a coil with inductance 5 mH. The coil is connected across the terminals of a battery, and the cu

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Compared with the current in the first coil, the current in the second coil is unchanged.

Explanation:

All coils, inductors, chokes and transformers create a magnetic field around themselves consist of an Inductance in series with a Resistance forming an LR Series Circuit.

The steady state of current in the LR circuit is:

I= V/R (1 - e^-Rt/L)

Where I= current

R= Resistance

V= Voltage

Where R/L is the time constant.

For a conducting wire, it has a very small resistance. The time constant will be in microseconds. The current will be in a steady state after few second. The current is independent on the inductance and dependent on the resistance. The length of wire and the resistance here are the same. Therefore, the current remains unchanged.

Which particle is most likely to interact with your hand? Select one: a. Alpha particle b. Beta particle c. Gamma particle d. Ne

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

The alpha particle has the lowest penetrating power of the trio of alpha, beta and gamma particles and can be stopped by a sheet of paper and hence cannot penetrate a human skin. Beta particle has a higher penetrating power than alpha particle (some of it penetrates the human skin and some do not) while the gamma particle has the highest penetrating power (with all of it penetrating the human skin).

From the above description, it can be deduced that the alpha particle will stay and interact with the hand (because of its low penetrating power) as the remaining particles move through the skin.

A 40-cmcm-long tube has a 40-cmcm-long insert that can be pulled in and out. A vibrating tuning fork is held next to the tube. A

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

1070 Hz

Explanation:

First, I should point out there might be a typo in the question or the question has inconsistent values. If the tube is 40 cm long, standing waves cannot be produced at 42.5 cm and 58.5 cm lengths. I assume the length is more than the value in the question then. Under this assumption, we proceed as below:

The insert in the tube creates a closed pipe with one end open and the other closed. For a closed pipe, the difference between successive resonances is a half wavelength $\frac{\lambda}{2}$ .
