How do metal detcors operate

1 answer:

5 0

Metal detectors work by transmitting an electromagnetic field from the search coil into the ground. Any metal objects (targets) within the electromagnetic field will become energised and retransmit an electromagnetic field of their own.

If the bar magnet is flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball, the ball will be?

disa [49]

The ball may attracted to the magnet.

<h3>How can we understand that the hanging ball will be attracted to the magnet or not?</h3>

From the question, we understand that the ball is attracted by the north pole of the bar magnet, then the bar magnet flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball.
As we know, in this type of experiments of bar magnet most of the times the ball is made out of steel.
Steel is a magnetic material.
Magnetic materials gets attracted to the magnet at both the North and South pole.
This can be compared to how neutral objects also gets attracted to the positively and negatively charged rods through the Polarization force.

So, If the bar magnet is flipped over and the south pole is brought near the hanging ball, The ball will be attracted to the magnet.

Provide the following information for each of the three types of radiations from naturally radioactive materials. Be sure to inc

scoundrel [369]

<em>Alpha radiation:</em> Particles. Each alpha particle is a little bundle of 2 protons and 2 neutrons ... identical to the nucleus of a Helium atom.

Charge . . . +2 elementary charges

Mass . . . 4 Atomic Mass Units

Relative penetrating power . . . low

The effect an electric field would have on it . . . Since the alpha particle has a positive charge, it's repelled by other positive charges, and attracted toward negative charges.

<em>Beta radiation</em>: Particles. Each beta particle is an electron.

Charge . . . -1 elementary charge

Mass . . . 0.00055 AMU

Relative penetrating power . . . medium

The effect an electric field would have on it . . . repelled by other negative charges, and attracted toward positive charges.

<em>Gamma radiation</em>: electromagnetic wave, verrrrry short wave, high frequency

Charge . . . electromagnetic wave, no charge

Mass . . . electromagnetic wave, no mass

Relative penetrating power . . . high

The effect an electric field would have on it . . . electromagnetic wave, no effect

Which energy output objects work with the turbine

viktelen [127]

Answer:

The energy output object that works with the turbine is the alternator (generator)

Explanation:

In energy generation the turbine receives input energy from high pressured steam, high energy water etc. Which impinges and turn the blades of the turbine, this turbine is connected by means of a shaft to the alternator that converts the rotational motion of the shaft to electrical energy through Electro magnetic induction principles and also outputs the energy for consumption.

What were two arguments or lines of evidence in support of the geocentric model?

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Two arguments or lines of evidence in support of the geocentric model are:

Geocentric model: This model describe that the earth is in the center of the universe and all the planets. Moon and the sun are revolved around the earth. This model explained the predominant description.

Heliocentric model: In this model the earth and the sun are consider moving and the sun are in the center of the solar system. And the sun is at the center position where all the planets are revolving around it, being dissimilar to the geocentric model.
