Why a bulb contains coiled wire?​

Physics
1 answer:
LiRa [457]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The filament is coiled to give it greater length. If the filament was just a piece of straight wire it would only give out a small amount of light. By curling the wire into a coil, a very long length of wire can be stored in a small space. When electricity flows through the coil it can give out much more light.

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid C and 581 km from the center of asteroid
serg [7]

Answer:B

Explanation:

Given

Distance of astronaut From asteroid x is r_x=140 km

Distance of astronaut From asteroid Y is r_y=581 km

Suppose M,M_x,M_y be the masses of Astronaut , asteroid X and Y

If the astronaut is in equilibrium then net gravitational force on it is zero

F_x=F_y

\frac{GMM_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{GMM_y}{r_y^2}

cancel out the common terms we get

\frac{M_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{M_y}{r_y^2}

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{r_x}{r_y})^2

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{140}{581})^2

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=0.05806\approx 0.0581

Identify the areas on the image where the force of repulsion is the least.
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Each magnet has a north pole and a south pole. We know that, from having played with bar magnets in our childhood, that a magnet's north pole will repel another magnet's north pole and attract its south pole.

From this diagram it is easy to see that the two lower bar magnets not only repel each other, but they are quite attracted to each other since their north and south poles are close together.

Therefore the region between the lower two magnets has the least force of repulsion.
