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

Physics
1 answer:
slavikrds [6]2 years ago

<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.','.

Number 3 How to do?​
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

1 m/s

Explanation:

Impulse = Change in momentum

Force × Time = Mass(Final velocity) - Mass(Initial Velocity)

(1.0)(1.0) = (1.0)(Final Velocity) - (1.0)(0)

Final velocity = <u>1 m/s</u>

Sammy squirrel is steering his boat at a heading of 327 degree at 18mph. The current is flowing at 4mph at a heading of 60 degre
Tanya [424]

Answer:

  • 59.97 º at 18.23 mph

Explanation:

To find Sammy's course you have to add the two velocities (vectors), 18 mph 327º and 4 mph 60º.

To add the two vectors analytically you decompose each vector into their vertical and horizontal components.

<u>1. 18 mph 327º</u>

  • Horizontal component: 18 mph × cos (327º) = 15.10 mph

  • Vertical component: 18 mph × sin (327º) = - 9.80 mph

  • Vector notation:

       15.10\hat i-9.80\hat j

<u>2. 4 mph 60º</u>

  • Horizontal component: 4 mph × cos (60º) = 2.00 mph

  • Vertical component: 4 mph × sin (60º) = 3.46 mph

  • Vector notation:

       2.00\hat i+3.46\hat j

<u>3. Addition:</u>

You add the corresponding components:

15.10\hat i-9.80\hat j+2.00\hat i+3.46\hat j\\ \\ 17.10\hat i-6.34\hat j

To find the magnitude use Pythagorean theorem:

  • \sqrt{17.1^2+6.34^2}= 18.23

<u>4. Direction:</u>

Use the tangent ratio:

  • tan(\alpha )=opposite/adjacent=3.46/2.00=1.73

Find the inverse:

  • arctan (1.73) ≈ 59.97º

A temperature of 200°F is equivalent to approximately
aev [14]
<span>93.3°C
A temperature in Fahrenheit (°F) can be converted to Celsius (°C), using the formula
[°C] = ([°F] − 32) ×  5⁄9. Here we have to convert a temperature of 200°F in to Celsius. Thus Subtract 32 from Fahrenheit and multiply by 5 then divide by 9 . That is (200°F - 32) × 5/9=168 × 5/9
                                          =840/9
                                          =93.333333333°C
                                          = 93.3°C</span>

You pull downward with a force of 27.3 N on a rope that passes over a disk-shaped pulley of mass 1.43 kg and radius 0.0792 m. Th
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The tension in the left side string = 17.21 N

The tension in the right side string = F = 27.3 N

Explanation:

Given that

F= 27.3 N

M= 1.43 kg ,r= 0.0792 m

Moment of inertia of disk ,I = 0.5 m r²

I = 0.5 x 1.43 x 0.0792² = 0.0044 kg.m²

m= 0.7 kg

Lets take linear acceleration of system is a m/s²

Lets take tension in left side string = T

From Newtons law

T- mg = ma  

T- 0.7 x 10 = 0.7 a  ----------1

(F - T) r = I α      

α = Angular acceleration of disk

a = α  r

(F - T) r = I α  

(F - T) r² = I a  

( 27.3 - T) x 0.0792² = 0.0044 a        --------2

Form equation 1 and 2

a= 1.42 T - 10 m/s²

a = 1.42 ( 27.3 - T)  m/s²

1.42 T - 10 = 38.9 - 1.42 T

T=17.21 N

The tension in the right side string = F = 27.3 N
