Where is Earth’s magnetic south pole located? What about the magnetic north pole? What does this say about how a compass needle

will react to the poles?

Dominik [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Currently, the magnetic south pole lies about ten degrees distant from the geographic north pole, and sits in the Arctic Ocean north of Alaska. The north end on a compass therefore currently points roughly towards Alaska and not exactly towards geographic north.

A .5 kg air puck moves to the right at 3 m/s, colliding with a 1.5kg air puck that is moving to the left at 1.5 m/s.
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Total momentum of the system before the collision

.5 x 3 - 1.5 x 1.5 = -0.75 kg m/s towards the left

If v be the velocity of the stuck pucks

momentum after the collision = 2 v

Applying conservation of momentum

2 v = -  .75

v =  - .375 m /s

Let after the collision v be the velocity of .5 kg puck

total momentum after the collision

.5 v + 1.5 x .231 = .5v +.3465

Applying conservation of momentum law

.5 v +.3465 = - .75

v = - 2.193 m/s

2 ) To verify whether the collision is elastic or not , we verify whether the kinetic energy is conserved or not.

Kinetic energy before the collision

= 2.25 + 1.6875

=3.9375 J

kinetic energy after the collision

= .04 + 1.2 =1.24 J

So kinetic energy is not conserved . Hence collision is not elastic.

3 ) Change in the momentum of .5 kg

1.5 - (-1.0965 )

= 2.5965

Average force applied = change in momentum / time

= 2.5965 / 25 x 10⁻³

= 103.86 N

Why does sound propagate faster in solid bodies than in liquids and faster in liquids than in air?
storchak [24]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

this is because particles in solids are packed very closely together, thus , the particles collide with each other frequently and thus transfer of energy is faster. however, particles in liquid are closely packed but not as close as in solid so the particles do not collide as frequently. thus, transfer of energy slower than in solid. furthermore, the particles in gas are spaced far apart from each other, thus the particles don't collide with each other frequently, thus transfer of energy is very slow in gas.

A 12-kg piece of metal displaces 1.6 L of water when submerged. Part A Find its density. Express your answer to two significant
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

ρ = 7500 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m = 12 kg

Displace volume ,V= 1.6 L

We know that

1000 m ³ = 1 L

Therefore V= 0.0016 m ³

When metal piece is fully submerged

We know that

mass = Density x volume

m=\rho \times V

Now by putting the values in the above equation

\rho=\dfrac{12}{0.0016}\ kg/m^3

ρ = 7500 kg/m³

Therefore the density of the metal piece will be  7500 kg/m³.

A positive charge +q1 is located to the left of a negative charge -q2. On a line passing through the two charges, there are two
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

please the answer below

Explanation:

(a) If we assume that our origin of coordinates is at the position of charge q1, we have that the potential in both points is

V_1=k\frac{q_1}{r-1.0}-k\frac{q_2}{1.0}=0\\\\V_2=k\frac{q_1}{r+5.2}-k\frac{q_2}{5.2}=0\\\\

k=8.89*10^9

For both cases we have

k\frac{q_1}{r-1.0}=k\frac{q_2}{1.0}\\\\q_1(1.0)=q_2(r-1.0)\\\\r=\frac{q_1+q_2}{q_2}\\\\k\frac{q_1}{r+5.2}=k\frac{q_2}{5.2}\\\\q_1(5.2)=q_2(r+5.2)\\\\r=\frac{5.2q_1-5.2q_2}{q_2}

(b) by replacing this values of r in the expression for V we obtain

k\frac{q_1}{\frac{5.2(q_1-q_2)}{q_2}+5.2}=k\frac{q_2}{5.2}\\\\\frac{q_1}{q_2}=\frac{(q_1-q_2)}{q_2}-1.0=\frac{q_1-q_2-q_2}{q_2}=\frac{q_1-2q_2}{q_2}

hope this helps!!
