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

Physics
1 answer:
stepan [7]3 years ago
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.

The acceleration of the body is 2 m/s^2 while the deceleration is - 1.2 m/s^2.

<h3>What is the acceleration?</h3>

Let us recall that the acceleration is the change in the speed of a body with time. We have been told that the body accelerates for 3s and then decelerates to 2s. This implies that the total time that the object spent in motion is 5 s.

Thus;

v = u + at

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time taken

v - u/t = a

a = 6 - 0/3

= 2 m/s^2

Again;

v - u/t = a

a = 0 - 6/5

a = - 1.2m/s^2

If i have a kinematic equation vf^2=vi^2-2*a(xf-xi), how can i solve for xi step by step
azamat

Answer:

Explanation:

v_f^2 = v_i^2-2a(x_f-x_i)

Subtract both sides by v_i^2:

- v_i^2+v_f^2 = -2a(x_f-x_i)

Divide both sides by -2*a:

\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a} =x_f-x_i

Add both sides by x_i:

x_i+\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a} =x_f

Subtract both sides by \frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a}:

x_i=x_f-\frac{v_i^2 - v_f^2}{2a}

worty [1.4K]
Big Bang is a theory that, as stated above, has grown to become widely acceptable scientific explanation of the origin of things. Research would say that according to this theory, the Earth originated billion years ago through an explosive of a highly energized point.

Through this explosion, the elements were formed. However, only the lightest of the elements including hydrogen and helium, with traces of lithium and beryllium. From the choices, the answer would have to be the second choice, helium.
