Why naked wire cannot use in electromagnet<br>​
34kurt

Answer:

Explanation:

The wire in the windings needs to be insulated. Electricity takes the shortest path from one place to another. If the wire is bare, then adjacent turns are touching. The result is the current flows through the shortest path between the leads of the electromagnet, never flowing through a single turn of the coil.

A diamond is underwater; A light ray enters one face of the diamond, then travels at an angle of 30 degrees with respect to the
otez555 [7]
According to snells law 

<span>n1 sin theta1 = n2 sin theta2
</span>n1  = 1.333 (water)
<span>n2  = 2.42 (diamond)</span>
 it is given that theta =30 degrees so 
by putting the values we have 

<span>1.333 sin theta = 2.42 sin 30 </span>

<span>sin theta = (2.42/1.333) *0.5 =65.2 degree
</span>so our conclusion is 

<span>the ray's angle of incidence θ1 on the diamond</span> = 65.2 degree.
hope this helps

A cinder block is sitting on a platform 20m high. It weighs 7.9kg. The block has potential energy. calculate it
Goshia [24]
<span>The formula for potential energy is mass * gravity * height. With height given as 20m and weight given as 7.9kg, we can fill in 7.9 * gravity * 20. Gravity is 9.8m/s constant so 7.9 * 9.8 * 20 = potential energy. The result is 1549.45, with the unit of energy being joules. Final answer 1549.45 J</span>
