How might the ability of magnets to attract certain metals relate to the crane?

Physics

stepan [7]3 years ago

Answer:

When the elctromagnet is ON, it picks up the iron pieces from the other scrap (copper, brass, bronze, aluminium, rubber, plastic, glass etc. that is non-magnetic. Then the crane moves to the designated spot where the iron is to be dumped. Then the electromagnet is OFF and the pieces drop - that is the beauty of soft magnetic materials like iron and electromagnetism. When the current is switched off the magnetism disappears and gravity takes over….

If we used a permanent magnet, the iron pieces would be picked up, but they would be stuck to the powerful magnet and removing them would be a tough task.

Suppose the electric field in problems 2 was caused by a point charge. The test charge is moved to a distance twice as far from
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

it is reduced four times.

Explanation:

By definition, the electric field is the force per unit charge created by a charge distribution.

If the charge creating the field is a point charge, the force exerted by it on a test charge, must obey Coulomb´s Law, so, it must be inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

So, if the distance increases twice, as the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, and the square of 2 is 4, this means that the magnitude of the force exerted on the test charge must be 4 times smaller.

Which of these is most likely consequence of failing petroleum prices
melisa1 [442]

More sales of traditional, large cars are the most likely consequence of falling petroleum prices.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Since the majority of conventional, large cars employ combustion engines, these engines need petroleum fuel to operate.

As a result, <em>Choice C—more sales of conventional, large cars</em>—is one of the effects of dropping oil prices that is most likely to occur.

In a ballistics test, a 52g bullet hits a sand bag and stops after moving 1.34 m. If the initial bullat
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Friction force on the bullet is 58.7 N opposite to its velocity

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the bullet is 55 m/s

after travelling into the sand bag by distance d = 1.34 m it comes to rest

so final speed

v_f = 0

now we can use kinematics top find the acceleration of the bullet

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

so we have

0 - 55^2 = 2(a)(1.34)

a = -1128.7 m/s^2

now by Newton's II law we know that

F = ma

so we have

F = (0.052)(-1128.7)

F = -58.7 N
