In equal-arm balances from the early twentieth century, it is sometimes observed that an aluminum sheet hangs from one of the ar

ms and passes between the poles of a magnet. This causes the oscillations of the equal-arm balance to decay rapidly. In the absence of such magnetic braking, the oscillation might continue for a very long time, so that the experimenter would have to wait to take a reading. The oscillations decay because which of the following reasons? A. Aluminum is paramagnetic. B. Currents in the aluminum sheet set up a magnetic field that opposes the oscillations. C. The aluminum sheet is attracted to the magnet.

Answer:

Currents in the aluminum sheet set up a magnetic field that opposes the oscillations

Explanation:

It has been stated in the question that the aluminum sheet hangs from one of the arms and passes between the poles of the magnet and causes the magnetic field to decay rapidly. In the absence of this magnetic breaking, the oscillation may continue for a long time.

As the aluminum hangs from one of the sheets and passes between the poles of the magnet, the magnetic flux linked to the sheet changes and emf is induced in the sheet according to Lenz law. As a result of this induced emf, eddy currents are developed on the plate. The Eddy currents opposes the magnetic force on the aluminum sheets. This opposes the oscillation of the aluminum sheet and causes it to come to rest.

An automobile tire at 30°C has a pressure of 3.00 atm. Temperature decreases to -5°C. Assume that there is no volume change in t
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

P₂ = 2.7 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature = 30°C

Initial pressure = 3.00 atm

Final temperature = -5°C

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

Initial temperature = 30°C = 30 + 273 = 303 K

Final temperature = -5°C = -5 + 273 = 268 K

According to Gay-Lussac Law,

The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.

Mathematical relationship:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula:

3.0 atm / 303 K = P₂/268 K

P₂ = 3.0 atm × 268 K / 303 K

P₂ = 804 atm. K /293 K

P₂ = 2.7 atm

il63 [147K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

<u>The first law of thermodynamics</u> establishes a relationship between the internal energy of the system and the energy that it exchanges with the environment in the form of heat or work.

The first law of thermodynamics determines that the internal energy of a system increases when heat is transferred or work is done on it.

Like all the principles of thermodynamics, the first principle is based on systems in equilibrium.

On the other hand, it is likely that you have heard more than once that energy is neither created nor destroyed, only transformed. It is the general principle of energy conservation. Well, the first law of thermodynamics is the application to thermal processes of this principle.

The universe as a whole could be considered an isolated system, and therefore its total energy remains constant.
