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

1 answer:

7 0

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.

What impulse occurs when an average force of 7.0 N is exerted on a cart for 2.5 s ?

makkiz [27]

Answer: $1.7\times 10$

Explanation:

Given

Force $F=7 N$

time interval $t=2.5 s$

Impulse is given by $=Force \times time\ interval\ for\ applied\ force$

$Impulse=7\times 2.5=17.5$

For two significant Figure

$Impulse=1.7\times 10$

A circular swimming pool has a diameter of 12 m. The circular side of the pool is 3 m high, and the depth of the water is 2.5 m.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Explanation:

Diameter of pool = 12 m

radius of pool, r = 6 m

Total height raised, h = 3 + 2.5 = 5.5 m

density of water, d = 1000 kg/m³

Mass of water, m = Volume of water x density

m = πr²h x d

m = 3.14 x 6 x 6 x 5.5 x 1000

m = 113040 kg

Work = m x g x h

W = 113040 x 9.8 x 5.5

W = 6092856 J
