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]2 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.

Harry and ron set up this experiment with a glider, whose mass they have measured to be 565 g, and seven washers hanging from th
svetlana [45]
Let's call m=565~g=0.565~kg the mass of the glider and m_w=7\cdot12~g =84~g=0.084~kg the total mass of the seven washers hanging from the string. 
The net force on the system is given by the weight of the hanging washers:
F_{net} = m_w g
For Newton's second law, this net force is equal to the product between the total mass of the system (which is m+m_w) and the acceleration a:
F_{net}=(m+m_w)a
So, if we equalize the two equations, we get
m_w g = (m+m_w)a
and from this we can find the acceleration:
a= \frac{m_w g}{(m+m_w)} = \frac{0.084~kg \cdot 9.81~m/s^2}{(0.565~kg+0.084~kg)}=1.27~m/s^2

(a) A light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.35 m/s2 . How long does it take to reach its top speed of 80.0 km/h,
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

(a) Time t = 16.46 sec

(b) Time t =13.466 sec

(c) Deceleration = 2.677m/sec^2

Explanation:

(a) As the train starts from rest its initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

Acceleration a=1.35m/sec^2

Final speed v = 80 km/hr

80km/hr=\frac{80\times 1000}{3600sec}=22.22m/sec

From first equation of motion v =u+at

So t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{22.22-0}{1.35}=16.46 sec

(b) Now initial speed u = 22.22 m/sec

As finally train comes to rest so final speed v=0 m/sec

Deceleration a=1.65m/sec^2

So t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-22.22}{-1.65}=13.466 sec

(c) We have given that initial velocity = 80 km/hr = 22.22 m/sec

Final velocity v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 8.30 sec

So acceleration is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{0-22.22}{8.3}=-2.6771m/sec^2

As acceleration is negative so it is a deceleration
