A scientist runs an electric current along a wire. A magnetic compass is placed near the wire. The scientist observes that whene

ver the current is turned on, the compass needle moves. Why does the compass needle move? Question 9 options: The current creates an electric field around the wire The current creates a magnetic field around the wire The current increases the force of gravity on the compass needle. The current adds electric charge to the compass needle.

The magnetic field causes deflection of the needle of a compass . The electric current causes a magnetic field around the wire due to which the compass needle moves.

<h3> what is a solenoid?</h3>

A solenoid is an electric current-conducting coil of wire. An electromagnet built with a wire helical coil is known as a solenoid.

A magnetic field is created when an electric current is sent through the coil. When an electric current runs through a solenoid. It creates a magnetic field.

To learn more about the solenoid refer to the link ;

The system consists of a 20-lb disk A, 4-lb slender rod BC, and a 1-lb smooth collar C. If the disk rolls without slipping, dete
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the collar will be 3.076 ft/s

Explanation:

Given data

weight of the disk, Wa = 20lb

weight of rod BC, Wbc = 4lb

weight of collar, Wc = 1lb

Considering the equation of equilibrium

Vb = 1.5Wbc

Wa = 1.875 Wbc

to calculate the velocity of the collar using energy conservation equation

T1 + V1 = T2 + V2

0+4(1.5 \sin 45)+2(3 \sin 45)=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{20}{32.2}\right)(0.8)\right)              

=>(1.875 W b c)+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{20}{32.2}\right)(1.5 W b c)+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{20}{32.2}\right)

=>(1.5 W b c) \frac{1}{2}\left\{\frac{1}{12}\left(\frac{4}{32.2}\right)(3)\right\}+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{32.2}\right)

=>(2.598 W b c)+4(1.5 \sin 0)+2(3 \sin 0)

Wbc = 1.18rad/sec

i.e.                                    

V _c=2.598 \times 1.18

= 3.076 ft/ s

A Cessna aircraft has a liftoff speed of 120 km/h What minimum constant acceleration does the aircraft require to be airborne af
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

<h3>2.3125m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion v² = u²+2aS

v is the final velocity = 120km/hr

120km/hr = 120 * 1000/1 * 3600 = 33.3m/s

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

a is the acceleration

S is the distance covered = 240m

On substituting the given parameters

33.3² = 0²+2a(240)

33.3² = 480a

1110 = 480a

a = 1110/480

a = 2.3125m/s²

Hence the minimum constant acceleration that the aircraft require to be airborne after a takeoff run of 240 m is 2.3125m/s²

HELP PLEASE THIS IS DUE RIGHT NOW. What is the difference between constant acceleration and instantaneous acceleration?​
ladessa [460]
Constant acceleration is when the velocity changes the same amount in every equal time period. For example : 9.8 m/s^2

Instantaneous acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes at a specific instant in time. For example: at one point it might be 8m/s^2 and at another point 13m/s^2

The "Garbage Project" at the University of Arizona reports that the amount of paper discarded by households per week is normally
Lorico [155]

Answer:

54%

Explanation:

We are given that

S.D=4.2 lb

Mean=\mu=9.4 lb

We have to find the percentage of household throw out at least 9 lb of paper  a week.

Normal distribution formula :

P(X\geq a)=P(z\geq \frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})

We have a=9

P(X\geq 9)=P(z\geq \frac{9-9.4}{4.2})=P(z\geq -0.1)

P(X\geq 9)=1-P(z

P(X\geq 9)=1-0.4602=0.5398\times 100=54%

Hence, the  percentage of household throw out at least of paper a week=54%
