Answer:

<em>The bullet was 0.52 seconds in the air.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Motion </u>

It occurs when an object is thrown horizontally with a speed v from a height h.

The object describes a curved path ruled exclusively by gravity until it hits the ground.

To calculate the time the object takes to hit the ground, we use the following equation:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

Note it doesn't depend on the initial velocity but on the height.

The bullet is fired horizontally at h=1.3 m, thus:

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot 1.3}{9.8}}

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2.6}{9.8}}

t = 0.52 s

The bullet was 0.52 seconds in the air.

Two electromagnets contain the same types of magnets
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: The first electromagnet has a more powerful current than

the second

Explanation:

Since the two electromagnets contain the same types of magnets and wires. If the magnet In the first moves much faster than the second. Therefore:

The first electromagnet has a more powerful current than the second

Because the induced EMF is proportional to the induced current.

Where the induced EMF depends on the speed of the magnet according to the formula below

EMF = BVL

So, increase in speed of the magnet will cause more powerful induced current and emf
