Where do you weight more on top of Mt. Everest (Highest Mt. in the world) or at the beach

1 answer:

8 0

You weigh slightly more at the beach than on top of a mountain, because at the beach, you're closer to the center of the Earth.

Two mirrors are at right angles to one another. A light ray is incident on the first at an angle of 30° with respect to the norm

marta [7]

Answer:

reflected angle - secod mirror = 60°

Explanation:

I attached an image with the solution to this problem below.

In the solution the reflection law, incident angle = reflected angle, is used. Furthermore some trigonometric relation is used.

You can notice in the image that the angle of reflection in the second mirror is 60°

A vertical scale on a spring balance reads from 0 to 200 \rm{N}. The scale has a length of 10.0 \rm{cm} from the 0 to 200 \rm{N}

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

m = 12.05 kg

Explanation:

Spring constant in K, N/m

K = 200/10* 100

K = 2000 N/m

Angular Frequency = sqrt (Spring constant / (Mass )

ω = 2 π f

ω = 2π* 2.05 Hz = 12.8805 rad/s

ω^2 = Spring constant / Mass

Mass= Spring constant / ω^2

ω^2 = 165.907 rad^2/s^2

m = 2000 (N/m)/165.907 (rad^2/s^2)

m = 12.05 kg

A coil formed by wrapping 65 turns of wire in the shape of a square is positioned in a magnetic field so that the normal to the

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

377 m

Explanation:

number of turns, N = 65

θ = 36°

B1 = 200 micro Tesla

B2 = 600 micro tesla

t = 0.4 s

induced emf, e = 80 mV

Let a be the side of the square coil.

$e=\frac{d\phi }{dt}=NA\frac{dB}{dt}\times Sinθ$

$0.080=\frac{65\times a^{2}\times Sin36\times\left ( 600 - 200 \right )\times 10^{-6}}{0.4}$

$0.080=0.038a^{2}$

a = 1.45 m

Total length of the wire, L = N x 4a = 65 x 4 x 1.45 = 377 m

Thus, the length of the wire is 377 m.

A series circuit is composed of two resistors:

WITCHER [35]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.3 Amps

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

A circuit with resistors, R1 and R2

R1 = 7 Ω

R2 = 11 Ω

Voltage = 24 V

We are required to calculate the current in the circuit.

<h3>Step 1: We need to find the effective resistance.</h3>

When resistors are arranged in series, the effective resistance is calculated by;

Rt = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ..........Rₙ

Therefore;

Total resistance = 7 + 11

= 18 Ω

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the current in the circuit</h3>

From the ohm's law;

V = IR

Rearranging the formula;

I = V/R

Thus;

I = 24 V ÷ 18 Ω

= 1.333 Amps

= 1.3 Amps

Thus, the current in the circuit is 1.3 Amps
