Answer:

computerized x-ray imaging procedure in which a narrow beam of x-rays is aimed at a patient and quickly rotated around the body, producing signals that are processed by the machine’s computer to generate cross-sectional images—or “slices”—of the body. These slices are called tomographic images and contain more detailed information than conventional x-rays. Once a number of successive slices are collected by the machine’s computer, they can be digitally “stacked” together to form a three-dimensional image of the patient that allows for easier identification and location of basic structures as well as possible tumors or abnormalities.

A 23.0 kg iron weightlifting plate has a volume of 2920 cm3 . what is the density of the iron plate in g/cm3?

yanalaym [24]

The first thing you should know for this case is that density is defined as the quotient between mass and volume:
D = M / V
In addition, you should keep in mind the following conversion:
1Kg = 1000g
Substituting the values we have:
D = (23.0 * 1000) / (2920) = 7.88 g / cm ^ 3
answer
the density of the iron plate is 7.88 g / cm ^ 3

A 580-turn solenoid is 18 cm long. The current in it is 36 A. A straight wire cuts through the center of the solenoid, along a 2

Karolina [17]

Answer:

F = 0.078N

Explanation:

In order to calculate the magnitude of the force on the wire you first calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field generated by the solenoid, by using the following formula:

$B=\frac{\mu_oNi}{L}$ (1)

μo: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4π*10^-7 T/A

N: turns of the solenoid = 580

i: current in the solenoid = 36A

L: length of the solenoid = 18cm = 0.18m

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

$B=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(580)(36A)}{0.18m}=0.145T$

Next, you calculate the force exerted on the wire, by using the following formula:

$F=iLBsin\theta$ (2)

i: current in the wire = 27A

L: length of the wire that perceives the magnetic field (the same as the radius of the solenoid) = 2.0 cm = 0.02m

θ: angle between wire and the direction of B

B: magneitc field in the solenoid = 0.145T

The direction of the wire are perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field, hence, the angle is 90°.

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (2):

$F=(27A)(0.02m)(0.145T)sin90\°=0.078N$

The magnitude of the force on the wire is 0.078N

Winds tend to rotate in a counter clockwise direction in the ___ (northern or southern) Hemisphere as they move into a low press

lana [24]

Answer:

Winds tend to rotate in a counter clockwise direction in the center of northern and southern hemisphere.

Explanation:

The wind blows clockwise around a high pressure area in the northern hemisphere and the wind blows counter - clockwise around low pressure.

In the northern hemisphere High-pressure systems rotate clockwise direction and in the southern hemisphere low-pressure systems rotate clockwise direction.
