Early humans used rocks as tools to make other things as well as to construct buildings. Why was it better for them to use rocks

than another material such as wood?

Explanation:

1. Rocks are tougher and stronger as compared to wood.

2. Rocks can be naturally found in various shapes: pointed, flat etc which makes them usable as a tool right away without any major modifications. In case of wood has to be shaped into desired shape.

3. Wood is more prone to weathering due to atmospheric condition in comparison to stones.

Wood isn't as tough as rock. Wood also breaks down in weather and cracks under pressure. Plus rocks were more accessible.

A solenoidal coil with 25 turns of wire is wound tightly around another coil with 300 turns. The inner solenoid is 25.0 cm long
joja [24]

Answer:

5.65487\times 10^{-8}\ Wb

1.17\times 10^{-5}\ H

-0.020475 V

Explanation:

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m

N_1 = Number of turns of coil  = 25

N_2 = Number of turns of coil 2 = 300

\frac{di_2}{dt} = Rate of current increased = 1.75\times 10^3\ A/s

d = Diameter = 2 cm

r = Radius = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{2}{2}=1\ cm

A = Area = \pi r^2

Magnetic field in the solenoid is given by

B=\mu_0\frac{N_2}{l}I\\\Rightarrow B=4\pi\times 10^{-7}\frac{300}{0.25}\times 0.12\\\Rightarrow B=0.00018\ T

Magnetic flux is given by

\phi=BA\\\Rightarrow \phi=0.00018\times \pi\times 0.01^2\\\Rightarrow \phi=5.65487\times 10^{-8}\ Wb

The average magnetic flux through each turn of the inner solenoid is 5.65487\times 10^{-8}\ Wb

Mutual inductance is given by

L=\frac{N_1\phi}{i_1}\\\Rightarrow L=\frac{25\times 5.65487\times 10^{-8}}{0.12}\\\Rightarrow L=1.17\times 10^{-5}\ H

The mutual inductance of the two solenoids is 1.17\times 10^{-5}\ H

Induced emf is given by

V=-L\frac{di_2}{dt}\\\Rightarrow V=-1.17\times 10^{-5}\times 1.75\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow V=-0.020475\ V

The emf induced in the outer solenoid by the changing current in the inner solenoid is -0.020475 V

What is a step down transformer
ratelena [41]

Answer:

A step down transformer is a device that can be connected to the switch and the appliance. There are two types of transformers that you should know about: step up and step down transformers. Step up transformers generally produce a higher output voltage than the input voltage.

The airport has a new plane that can go from 0 miles per hour to 100 miles per hour in 10 seconds. What is being described about
Nonamiya [84]
<h3 />

<h2 /><h2 /><h2>Acceleration : </h2>

Acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as ❝ rate of change in velocity ❞

And as per the question, the plane can go from 0 miles to 100 miles/hour in 10 seconds that shows rate of change in its velocity. that is :

from 0 miles/hour to 100 miles/hour. hence Acceleration is the quantity being described about the new plane.

  • \qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a =  \dfrac{v - u}{t}

[ v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time ]

  • \qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a =  \dfrac{100 - 0}{10}

  • \qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a =  \dfrac{100}{10}

  • \qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a = 10 \:

So, the Acceleration of the new plane is 10 miles/hour²

What gives ocean waves energy? a. spits c. sea stack b. wave erosion d. wind
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

Waves are generally caused by the wind that blows over the oceans. The waves formed by the wind are known as the wind driven waves. They are also known as the surface waves. When the wind blows over the surface of the ocean water, it creates a friction between them, as a result of which these surface waves are generated. This wind as well as the pressure differences below the ocean surface provides energy to the ocean waves. These waves are constantly moving in all the parts of oceans and are affected by the Coriolis force that results due to the rotation of the earth.

Hence, the correct answer is option (4).
