Ashley made a paper boat and attached paperclips to the edges. In order to control her boat she used a horseshoe magnet. How is

Ashley able to control her boat without touching it?
A) The boat is moving with currents in the water.
B) The boat is attracted to the magnet by the force of gravity.
C) The boat is attracted to the magnet by the force of magnetism.
D) Ashley would not be able to do this without touching the boat.

The true answer is C.

The boat is attracted to the magnet by the force of magnetism.

Let me explain. If Ashley made the paper boat and place it on the water, gravity will try to pull the boat down, however no magnets are used in this situation.

Now if magnets are used in this situation and the paper clip is attach to the boat, rather than gravity pulling it down, the magnet will be pulling paper clip, causing the boat to move, so instead of gravity, it's magnetism.

Note: Magnets=Magnetism

A fan is to accelerate quiescent air to a velocity of 12.5 m/s at a rate of 9 m3/s. Determine the minimum power that must be sup
Reika [66]

Answer:

= 829.69 Watt

≅ 830 Watt

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of air flow = 12.5m/s

Rate of flow of air = 9m³/s

Density of air = 1.18kg/m³

power by kinetic energy = 1/2(mv²)

mass = density × volume

m = 1.18 × 9

  = 10.62 kg/s

power = 1/2 mV²

           = 1/2 (10.62 × 12.5²)

           = 829.69 Watt

Which statements about inertia and centripetal force are correct? Check all that apply. Inertia is always present. Inertia cause
allsm [11]
Inertia IS always present. Inertia is NOT the force that causes objects to continue moving in circles, that is centripetal force. Centripetal force is NOT always present. Centripetal force DOES pull objects toward the center of a circle. <span> Inertia and centripetal force DOES cause circular motion. Thank you and eat sand fren ;)</span>

A stone is held at a height h above the ground. A second stone with four times the mass of the first one is held at the same hei
QveST [7]

gravitational potential energy is given by formula

U = mgh

here we need to compare the gravitational potential energy of stone 2 with respect to stone 1

so we will say

\frac{U_2}{U_1} = \frac{m_2gh}{m_1gh}

\frac{U_2}{U_1} =\frac{m_2}{m_1}

given that

m_2 = 4 m_1

now we have

\frac{U_2}{U_1} = 4

An electric dipole with dipole moment p⃗ is in a uniform electric field E⃗ . A. Find all the orientation angles of the dipole me
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

A) When a dipole is placed in an electric field , it experiences a torque equal to the following

torque = p x E = p E sinθ , where θ is angle between direction of p and E .

It will be zero if θ = 0

or if both p and E are oriented in the same direction.

It is the stable orientation of dipole.

If θ = 180° ,

Torque = 0

In this case both p and E are oriented in opposite direction .

It is the unstable orientation of the dipole because if we deflect the dipole by even small angle , it goes back to most stable orientation due to torque acting on it by electric field.

an input force of 50 Newtons is applied through a distance of 10 meters to machine with mechanical advantage of 3. If the work o
gladu [14]
The output of the machine is

                                      (output work) =  (output force) x (distance)

                                        450 N-m      =  (output force) x (3 meters)

Divide each side
by  3 meters:                Output force = (450 N-m) / (3 m)

                                                           =    150 newtons .

With all the information given about the output work, we don't need
to know anything about the input work, or even the fact that we're
dealing with a machine.

It's comforting, though, to look back and notice that the output work
(450 N-m) is not more than the input work (500 N-m).  So everything
is nice and hunky-dory.
___________________________________

Well, my goodness !
I didn't even need to go through all of that.

Given:

-- The input force to the machine is 50 newtons.

-- The mechanical advantage of the machine is 3 .

That right there tells us that

-- The output force of the machine is 150 newtons.

We don't need any of the other given information.
