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

Alla [95]

Answer:

14.4 m/s

Explanation:

mass of Anna (Ma) = 68 kg

speed of Anna (Va) = 17 m/s

mass of SandraDay (Ms) = 76 kg

speed of SandraDay (Vs) = 12 m/s

We can find their speed (V) immediately after collision from the conservation of momentum where

(Ma x Va) + (Ms + Vs) = (Ma + Ms) x V

where V = speed immediately after collision

(68 x 17) + (76 + 12) = (68 + 76) x V

2068 = 144 V

V = 2068 / 144 = 14.4 m/s

Finger [1]
1) metal
Even though metalloids are also conductors of heat and electricity, malleable they are not as good as metals.
Metals are very good conductors of electricity and heat. They are also very hard to touch. Noble gases and non metals are the exact opposite in physical and chemical properties. Metals readily react with oxygen.

Calculate the average speed and average velocity of a complete round-trip in which the outgoing 250 km is covered at 95 km/h fol
ser-zykov [4K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. From them we will consider speed as the distance traveled per unit of time. Said unit of time will be cleared to find the total time taken to travel the given distance. Later with the calculated average times and distances, we will obtain the average speed.

PART A)

The time taken to travel a distance of 250km with a speed of 95km/h is

t = \frac{d}{v}

t = \frac{250km}{95km/h}

t = 2.63h

Time taken for the lunch is

t = 1h

The time taken travel a distance of 250km with a speed of 55km/h

t = \frac{d}{v}

t = \frac{250}{55}

t = 4.54h

The total time taken is

t = t_{outgoing}+t_{lunch}}t_{return}

t = 2.63+1+4.54

t = 8.17h

The average speed is the ratio of total distance and total time

v = \frac{250+250}{8.17}

v = 61.15km/h

PART B)

As the displacement is zero the average velocity is zero.

A block of size 20m x 10 mx 5 m exerts a force of 30N. Calculate the
Orlov [11]

Answer:

We know that force applied per unit area is called pressure.

Pressure = Force/ Area

When force is constant than pressure is inversely proportional to area.

1- Calculating the area of three face:

A1 = 20m x 10 m =200 Square meter

A2 = 10 mx 5 m = 50 Square meter

A3 = 20m x 5 m = 100 Square meter

Therefore A1 is maximum and A2 is minimum.

2- Calculate pressure:

P = F/ A1 = 30 / 200 = 0.15 Nm⁻²  ( minimum pressure)

P = F / A2 = 30 / 50 = 0.6 Nm⁻²   ( maximum pressure)

Hence greater the area less will be the pressure and vice versa.
