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 soft iron inside the coil makes the magnetic field stronger because it becomes a magnet itself when the current is flowing. Soft iron is used because it loses its magne

A bystander observes the musicians heading toward each other. When musician #1 is 100 m away, the intensity is 1.24 x 10-8 W/m^2

777dan777 [17]

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance 1, r = 100 m

Intensity, $I_1=1.24\times 10^{-8}\ W/m^2$

If distance 2, r' = 25 m

We need to find the intensity and the intensity level at 25 meters. Intensity and a distance r is given by :

$I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}$ .........(1)

Let I' is the intensity at r'. So,

$I'=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r'^2}$ ............(2)

From equation (1) and (2) :

$I'=\dfrac{Ir}{r'^2}$

$I'=\dfrac{1.24\times 10^{-8}\times 100}{25^2}$

$I'=1.98\times 10^{-9}\ W/m^2$

Intensity level is given by :

$dB=10\ log(\dfrac{I'}{I_o})$ , $I_o=10^{-12}\ W/m^2$

$dB=10\ log(\dfrac{1.98\times 10^{-9}}{10^{-12}})$

dB = 32.96 dB

Hence, this is the required solution.

A stone is dropped from the upper observation deck of a tower, "500" m above the ground. (Assume g = 9.8 m/s2.) (a) Find the dis

Yuri [45]

Answer:

h₍₁₎ = 495,1 meters

h₍₂₎ = 480,4 m

h₍₃₎ = 455,9 m

...

Explanation:

The exercise is "free fall". t = $\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }$

Solving with this formula you find the time it takes for the stone to reach the ground (T) = 102,04 s

The heights (h) according to his time (t) are found according to the formula:

h(t) = 500 - 1/2 * g * t²

Remplacing "t" with the desired time.

For a projectile launched horizontally, which of the following best describes the downward component of a projectile's velocity?

Angelina_Jolie [31]

C. The downward component of the projectile's velocity continually increases

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (with constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- A uniformly accelerated motion, with constant acceleration (equal to the acceleration of gravity) in the downward direction

Here we want to study the downward component of the projectile's velocity. Since the vertical motion is a uniformly accelerated motion, the vertical velocity is given by:

$v=u+at$
