Answer:

x=13

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Magnitude 1 M_1=5

Magnitude 1 M_2=12

Generally the Pythagoras equation for the magnitudes is mathematically given as

\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{M_1^2 +M_2^2}

\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{5^2 +12^2}

x=13

Therefore resultant magnitude is

x=13

What would happen if you held the South Pole of one magnet near the North Pole of another magnet of the same size?
KiRa [710]

The correct choice would be

(B) The magnets would be attracted to each other.

we know that like poles repel each other and unlike poles attract each other. hence when south pole of one magnet is placed near the north pole of other magnet, the two magnets attract each other due to interaction of magnetic fields of the two magnets. the magnetic field lines originating from north pole of one magnet ends at the south of other magnet

A cosmic ray muon with mass mμ = 1.88 ✕ 10−28 kg impacting the Earth's atmosphere slows down in proportion to the amount of matt
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

a. the magnitude of the force experienced by the muon is 2.55 × 10⁻¹⁹N

b.  this force compare to the weight of the muon; the force is 1.38 × 10⁸ greater than muon

Explanation:

F= ma

v²=u² -2aS

(1.56 ✕ 10⁶)²=(2.40 ✕ 10⁶)²-2a(1220)

a=1.36×10⁹m/s²

recall

F=ma

F = 1.88 ✕ 10⁻²⁸ kg × 1.36×10⁹m/s²

F= 2.55 × 10⁻¹⁹N

the magnitude of the force experienced by the muon is 2.55 × 10⁻¹⁹N

b.  this force compare to the weight of the muon

F/mg= 2.55 × 10⁻¹⁹/ (1.88 ✕ 10⁻²⁸ × 9.8)

= 1.38 × 10⁸
