Two common uses for electromagnets are _____.
Novosadov [1.4K]

Two common uses for electromagnets are _producing strong magnetic fields_& __electrical switches_.

Explanation:

An electric current can turn a ferromagnetic material temporarily magnetic using Faraday's principle, if the wire carrying the current is wound in coils around the ferromagnetic material. When the electric current is turned on the ferromagnetic material, such as iron, becomes magnetic but loses the magnetism when the current is switched off. This application can be used in a junkyard where a crane with a ferromagnetic arm can lift scrap cars from one point and dump them is a scrapper.

An electromagnet switch can also be applied in the switching on and off of a larger current. These are called relay switches. When the smaller current is turn on, it magnetizes a ferromagnetic material. The magnet then attracts another metal that is attached to a contact arm of a switch. The attraction results in the closing of a switch  of a larger current. When the smaller current is switched off, the loss of magnetism causes the metal with the contact arm to open the larger switch.

Calculate the osmotic pressure of a 5.5M glucose solution at 20 degrees Celsius
NeTakaya

The osmotic pressure is a colligative property which depends upon the number of molecules and not the type of molecules

The relation between osmotic pressure and concentration is

πV = nRT

where

π = Osmotic pressure [ unit atm] = ?

V = volume

n = moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm / mol K

T = temperature = 20°C = 20 + 273.15 K = 293.15 K

also

Molarity = moles / Volume

So

Molarity = n/V = 5.5 M

Putting values

π = MRT

π = 5.5 X 0.0821 X 293.15 = 132.37 atm

Osmotic pressure of given glucose solution will be 132.37 atm

In your own words, describe the concept of specific heat capacity and the effects that it has on temperature changes. Give an ex
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity is the heat that a body or a system needs to administer so that it can increase its internal temperature.

Explanation:

The calorific capacity is measured in several units, it varies a lot between products, reactants or the same systems since each one is independent in its composition and this conditions it.

As for its mathematical calculation, it is the quotient, that is, the division between the dose of energy transferred to a body and the change in temperature that it experiences.
