Why does a magnet attract a steel nail

Physics
1 answer:
SVEN [57.7K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The nail will stick to the bar magnet because it will become magnetized, and it's metal. The presence of the nearby north pole rearranges the magnetic domains inside the steel so that their south poles all point toward the north pole of the permanent magnet. As a result, the other end of the nail becomes a north pole.Magnets attract iron due to the influence of their magnetic field upon the iron. ... When exposed to the magnetic field, the atoms begin to align their electrons with the flow of the magnetic field, which makes the iron magnetized as well. This, in turn, creates an attraction between the two magnetized objects.

One end of a horizontal spring with force constant 76.0 N/m is attached to a vertical post. A 5.00-kg can of beans is attached t
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

a. The speed is 2.39 m/s

b. The acceleration of the block is 10.2\frac{m}{s^{2} }

Explanation:

First, we have to do the energy balance where we consider two states, the first where the spring remains still and the second when it is stretched 0.400m:

K_{1} +U_{1}+W_{ext}=K_{2}+U_{2}\\K_{1}=0\\U_{1}=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} _{1} =0\\W_{ext}=FΔx=(0.400m)\\

W_{ext}=20.4 Nm

U_{2} =\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} =\frac{1}{2} (76.0N/m)0.400^{2}=6.08Nm\\k_{2} =\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} _{2}  \\\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{2}=W_{ext}-U_{2}\\v_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{W_{ext}-U_{2}}{m} } \\v_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{20.4Nm-6.08Nm}{2.5kg} } \\v_{2}=2.39 \frac{m}{s}

To determine, the acceleration we solve the following equation for a:

F=ma\\a=\frac{F}{m} =\frac{51.0N}{5.00kg}\\a=10.2\frac{m}{s^{2} }

What aspect of bouncing balls relates to matter
Lynna [10]

Answer: An aspect of the event of various types of balls bouncing off the same floor, being matter is that all the balls consist of matter. They all occupy space and have a form of energy when moved by a force, such as a person. And for energy, like I just said, when they bounce they create energy as they bounce up and down, so if the ball were to hit some other object, it would have an impact on the still object.

The combination of the material properties of a ball (surface textures, actual materials, amount of air, hardness/ softness, and so on) affects the height of its bounce.

Hope this helps.......... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!! :D

Explain what was ultimately responsible for London’s “killer fog” in 1952.
stellarik [79]

Answer:

possible answer from edge

Explanation:

After World War II the only coal available to burn residentially, either for cooking or warmth, was of poor quality and contained large amounts of contaminants that made its fumes toxic. So when millions of homes in London burned this low quality coal and the local atmosphere over and around London stagnated, there was nowhere for the fumes to go. This stagnation allowed the toxic coal fumes to build up until they became physically harmful to humans and animals.
