How does a compass, which contains a magnetized needle, tell direction?

Physics

<h2>Answer::</h2>

A compass works by detecting and responding to the Earth's natural magnetic fields. The Earth has an iron core that is part liquid and part solid crystal, due to gravitational pressure. It is believed that movement in the liquid outer core is what produces the Earth's magnetic field.','.

How would gravity cause planets to move if they did not have inertia?
daser333 [38]
I’d think the answer would be C. i’m just kinda guessing but my thought process is this (as simply as i can put it because physics is confusing):

so for example say you throw a ball across a flat surface. inertia is what keeps the ball rolling straight in a line, so unless you were to maybe put your hand in front of the ball or something, it would just go straight forever.

this is what happens with the planets. they go in a straight line, but since there’s gravity, the planets are also being pulled towards the sun. so gravity and inertia are why the planets orbit in the circle pattern they do. so when we remove inertia, we’re removing the state in which the planets keep going straight while being pulled towards a center point (the sun). this causes gravity to be the only factor in the planets orbiting. so that being said, the planets would just be pulled towards the sun. :)

An aircraft with a mass of 10,000 kg starts from rest at sea level and takes off, then flies to a cruising speed of 620 km/h and
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The change in potential energy and kinetic energy are 980 MJ and 148.3 MJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of aircraft = 10000 kg

Speed = 620 km/h = 172.22 m/s

Altitude = 10 km = 1000 m

We calculate the change in potential energy

\Delta P.E=mg(h_{2}-h_{1})

\Delta P.E=10000\times9.8\times(10000-0)

\Delta P.E=10000\times9.8\times10000

\Delta P.E=980000000\ J

\Delta P.E=980\ MJ

For g = 10 m/s²,

The change in potential energy will be 1000 MJ.

We calculate the change in kinetic energy

\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_{2}^2-v_{1}^2)

\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times10000\times(172.22^2-0^2)

\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times10000\times(172.22^2)

\Delta K.E=148298642\ J

\Delta K.E=148.3\ MJ

For g = 10 m/s²,

The change in kinetic energy will be 150 MJ.

Hence, The change in potential energy and kinetic energy are 980 MJ and 148.3 MJ.
