Answer:

When the compass is placed below the wire, and the electric current switched on, the needle deflects in the opposite direction. If an electric current is passed through a long coil of wire (a solenoid ) a magnetic field is produced which is the same shape as that of a bar magnet.

Answer:

a changing electric field creates a magnetic field.

Explanation:

if you have a circuit and you send AC current through (AC = Alternating current) so that the electrons move back and forth, they will create a changing electric field.

This produces a magnetic field (because that's what the universe does).

If you were to travel from the equator to the higher latitudes (near either pole) on Saturn, the differential rotation would cau

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.

A 35.4 kg girl is riding on the back of a 15.23 kg cart. the cart and the kid are both moving eastward at 4.25 m/s when she step

Grace [21]

Answer:

The final velocity of the cart is $v_c = 7.02 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the girl is $m_g = 35.4 \ kg$

The mass of the cart is $m_c = 15.23 \ kg$

The speed of the cart and kid(girl) is $v = 4.25 \ m/s$

The final velocity of the girl is $v_g = 3.06 \ m/s$

Let assume that velocity eastward is positive and velocity westward is negative (Note that if we assume vise versa it wouldn't affect the answer )

The total momentum of the system before she steps off the back of the cart

is mathematically evaluated as

$p__{T1}} = (m_g + m_c) * v$

substituting values

$p__{T1}} = (35.4 + 15.23) * 4.25$

$p__{T1}} =215.17 \ kg m /s$

The total momentum after she steps off the back of the cart is mathematically evaluated as

$p__{T2}} = (m_g * v_g ) +( m_c * v_c )$

Where $v_c$ is the final velocity of the cart

substituting values

$p__{T2}} = (35.4 * 3.06 ) +( 15.23 * v_c )$

$p__{T2}} = 108. 324 + 15.23 v_c$

Now according to the law of conservation of momentum

$p__{T1}} =p__{T2}}$

$215.17 \ kg m /s = 108. 324 + 15.23 v_c$

=> $v_c = 7.02 \ m/s$

Since the value is positive it implies that the cart moved eastward

Human fingers are very sensitive, detecting vibrations with amplitudes as low as 2.0x10^-5m. Consider a sound wave with a wavele

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

18,850 Hz

Explanation:

We need to figure out the wavelength of the sound wave.

Thus,

Wavelength = 1000 * Lowest Amplitude Wave

Wavelength = 1000 * 2.0 * 10^(-5)

Wavelength = 0.02

Or,

$\lambda=0.02$

Now, we need the frequency of this wave. It goes by the formula:

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$

Where

f is the frequency in Hz

v is the speed of sound in air (to be 377 m/s)

$\lambda$ is the wavelength (we found to be 0.02)

Substituting, we find the frequency:

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}\\f=\frac{377}{0.02}\\f=18850$

The wave has frequency of 18,850 Hz
