100 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST! What were the Magdeburg Hemispheres?

The Magdeburg hemispheres are a pair of large copper hemispheres, with mating rims. They were used to demonstrate the power of atmospheric pressure. When the rims were sealed with grease and the air was pumped out, the sphere contained a vacuum and could not be pulled apart by teams of horses.

Answer:

Magdeburg hemispheres are two half-spheres of equal size. Placing them together traps air between them. This air is merely trapped, and not compressed, so the pressure inside is the same as the pressure of the atmosphere outside the spheres. The spheres thus pull apart with nearly no resistance.

Two long, straight parallel wires are placed 38 cm apart, one above the other. The top and bottom wires are carrying currents 4.
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two parallel wire, d = 38 cm = 0.38 m

current in the first wire, I₁ = 4.0 kA

current in the second wire, I₂ = 8.0 kA

Force per unit length, between two parallel wires is given as;

\frac{F}{L} = \frac{\mu_oI_1I_2 }{2\pi d }

where;

μ₀ is constant = 4π x 10⁻⁷ T.m/A

Substitute the given values in the above equation and calculate the force per unit length

\frac{F}{L} = \frac{\mu_oI_1I_2 }{2\pi d } = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*4000*8000 }{2\pi *0.38} = 16.842 \ N/m

Therefore, the force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m

g Incandescent bulbs generate visible light by heating up a thin metal filament to a very high temperature so that the thermal r
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

2577 K

Explanation:

Power radiated , P = σεAT⁴ where σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.6704 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴, ε = emissivity of bulb filament = 0.8, A = surface area of bulb = 30 mm² = 30 × 10⁻⁶ m² and T = operating temperature of filament.

So, T = ⁴√(P/σεA)

Since P = 60 W, we substitute the vales of the variables into T. So,

T = ⁴√(P/σεA)

= ⁴√(60 W/(5.6704 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴ × 0.8 × 30 × 10⁻⁶ m²)

= ⁴√(60 W/(136.0896 × 10⁻¹⁴ W/K⁴)

= ⁴√(60 W/(13608.96 × 10⁻¹⁶ W/K⁴)

= ⁴√(0.00441 × 10¹⁶K⁴)

= 0.2577 × 10⁴ K

= 2577 K

A rock has a mass of 25kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 10m/s and the height of the rock is 42 m. Find the potential energ
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN

Explanation:

 Mass of rock = 25 kg

 Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

 Height = 42 m

 Potential energy, PE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

 PE = 25 x 10 x 42 = 10500 N = 10.5 kN

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN
