Why is soft iron used for the core of an electromagnet?

Physics
2 answers:
aliina [53]3 years ago

Answer:

Because of the high permeability and high saturation level of holding magnetism.

Explanation:

Soft iron always used in the core of an electromagnet because of the following reason which are discussed below.

  • Permeability: These magnets are highly permeable means they can gain magnetism when current is passes through them and instantly loose magnetism after removal of current.
  • High saturation level: The property of these soft magnets are they have the high value of saturation means they can hold high level of magnetism without easily saturating.

The motion of a particle is described by the position function s(t) = 2t - 15t +33t+17,t&gt;0 , where is measured in seconds and
8090 [49]

The time when the particle is at rest is at 1.63 s or 3.36 s.

The velocity is positive at when the time of motion is at 0.

The total distance traveled in the first 10 seconds is 847 m.

<h3>When is a particle at rest?</h3>
  • A particle is at rest when the initial velocity of the particle is zero.

The time when the particle is at rest is calculated as follows;

s(t) = 2t³ - 15t² + 33t + 17

v = \frac{ds}{dt} = 6t^2 -30t + 33\\\\at \ rest, \ v = 0\\\\6t^2 - 30t + 33 = 0\\\\6(t- \frac{5}{2} )^2- \frac{9}{2} = 0\\\\t = 1.63\ s \ \ or \ 3.36 \ s

The velocity is positive at when the time of motion is as follows;

0.

The total distance traveled in the first 10 seconds is calculated as follows;

2(10)^3 - 15(10)^2 + 33(10) + 17 = 847 \ m

A source produces 20 crests and 20 troughs in 4 seconds. The second crest is 3 cm away from the first crest.Calculate :
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Solution given:

No of waves[N] =20crests & 20 troughs

=20waves

Time[T]=4seconds

distance[d]=3cm=0.03m

Now

<u>Wave</u><u> </u><u>length</u><u>=</u>3cm=3 × {10}^{ - 2}m

<u>Frequency</u>=\frac{No of waves}{time}

=\frac{20}{4}=5Hertz

and

Wave speed:wave length×frequency=3 × {10}^{ - 2}m×5=1.5 × {10}^{ - 1} \tt{ {ms}^{ - 1}}.

When a gas is rapidly compressed (say, by pushing down a piston) its temperature increases. When a gas expands against a piston,
shusha [124]

Answer:

Explained in explanation

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system(ΔU) is equal to the sum of the net heat transfer into the system(Q) and the net work done on the system(W). In equation, this law is;

ΔU = Q + W

Now, when there's gas inside a container with a movable piston that's tightly fitting, we will assume that the piston can move up and down thereby compressing the gas or allowing the gas to expand against it.

Now these gas molecules inside the container possess kinetic energy. Thus, the internal energy(U) of the system is simply the sum of all the kinetic energies of the individual gas molecules present in the container.

Therefore, if the temperature(T) of the gas increases, then the speed and internal energy(U) of the gas molecules will also increase. In the same way, if the temperature of the gas decreases, the speed and internal energy of the gas molecules would also decrease.

Now, back to the question, when the piston is pushed down, it does work on the gas and the gas does negative work on the piston. Thus, the gas will be get compressed to a smaller space, and thereby making the gas molecules to hit the piston at a faster rate. Thus, there is a decrease in speed and as we saw earlier that when there is a decrease in speed, it means temperature has decreased.

Whereas, when the piston is moved up, the gas does positive work on the piston and the speed of the gas molecules will increase. Like I said earlier that increase in speed means increase in temperature.
