A uniform brick of length 21 m is placed over
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

15.75 m

Explanation:

First, let's look at the top brick by itself.  In order for it not to tip over the bottom brick, its center of gravity must be right at the edge of the bottom brick.  So the edge of the top brick must be 10.5 m from the edge of the bottom brick.

Now let's look at both bricks as a combined mass.  We know the total length of this combined brick is 10.5 m + 21 m = 31.5 m.  And we know that for it to not tip over the edge of the surface, its center of gravity must be at the edge.  So the edge of the combined brick must be 31.5 m / 2 = 15.75 m from the edge of the surface.

The magnetic field at point P due to a 2.0-A current flowing in a long, straight, thin wire is 8.0 μT. How far is point P from t
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

r = 0.05 m = 5 cm

Explanation:

Applying ampere's law to the wire, we get:

B = \frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}\\\\r =  \frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi B}

where,

r = distance of point P from wire = ?

μ₀ = permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ N/A²

I = current = 2 A

B = Magnetic Field = 8 μT = 8 x 10⁻⁶ T

Therefore,

r = \frac{(4\pi\ x\ 10^{-7}\ N/A^2)(2\ A)}{2\pi(8\ x\ 10^{-6}\ T)}\\\\

<u>r = 0.05 m = 5 cm</u>

At the beginning of a unit on forces, Ms. Alton is leading a class discussion asking her students
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

(iv), (v), (vi) would be incorrect.

Explanation:

(iv) Force isn't transferred from one colliding object to another, but momentum can be.

(v) An object doesn't stop immediately a force stops acting on it. Think of a thrown ball.

(vi) For an object not to move, it means that the net force on the object is zero, and not necessarily that there are no forces acting on the object. For example, an object could be pushed on one side, and be pushed on the other side with an equal force in the opposite direction. The forces would cancel each other and the net force would be zero.

The rest should be correct.
