In the recent android version which is Lollipop the feature of palm showing to mobile to take a selfie after 2 seconds has been removed or I am not able to spot it clearly? There is also a space left in between camera reversal and some beauty thing. Earlier that was there in Kitkat version. Why...

This is completely confusing me, please help. The word that is giving me problems is "direction". The text talks about the "direction of the magnetic field lines" . As I understand it, the fied lines curve around a straight wire. So you can only have two directions, clockwise or anticlockwise...

Compute the force exerted on the palm of you hand by the beam from a 1.0W flashlight. (a) if your hand absorbs the light, and (b) if the light reflects from your hand. What would the mass of the particle that exerts that same force in each case would be if you hold it at Earth's surface? On...

Hey, I have a project where my group needs to design a drill. I am wondering if anyone here knows how to calculate the torque we get from 3 AA-batteries on 3.6 V (10.6 V together). How does it work? It just needs to assemble furniture, so we don't need very much force on it. Do you know what...

Homework Statement Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution Answer is C? But why?

Hey everyone, I was hoping you could help me solve a little problem. I'm having a little difficulty understanding why the right hand rule works for determining the direction of the magnetic field. I've found a similar question posted here...

Homework Statement Refer to solution II , the author used the scalar analysis( dot product) to get the direction of moment ...IMO , this is incorrect ... Only cross product can be determined this way . correct me if I'm wrong . Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution

the moment is r X F = rFsin tetha which means r is projected to F , am i right . If so , then the resultant force should point downwards( by using right hand thumb rule) , am i right?

Lets say I apply a force of 20N to a 10kg block on a frictionless table. Then the acceleration of the block is F= ma = F/m = 2m/s^2 = a. Then, supposing I am standing on the ground with real world friction such that I am not accelerated in the opposite direction when I push the block that is...

When I lower on object towards my palm (e.g. a pendulum on a long string, or a small metal object, etc) I feel a very subtle, but distinct sensation on the palm of my hand. What could be causing this? I don't think it is heat from the other hand. Can an stationary object produce a subtle...

Homework Statement A magnetic field of 0.0200 T (up) is created in a region. a) Find the initial magnetic force on an electron initially moving at 5.00 x 10^6 m/s (N) in the field. b) What is the radius of the circular path? Make a sketch showing the path of the electron. Homework...

Please forgive me as I am inquisitive enough to be dangerous. Question First, Thoughts Behind It: * How much validity is there in the application of Fleming's Left [edit: RIGHT!] Hand Rule towards the orbit of the Earth around the Sun? * I saw that NASA recognizes this but they seem to sort...

I'm taking the PGRE in about 3 months and haven't really began studying. There's loads of study tips out there already, but I'm looking for any first hand experience anyone has had with taking/studying for the PGRE. I've found that no matter what tips you can find, first hand experience is...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has any advice on when to use FLHR and FRHR in the Edexcel A - Level Physics, as I'm mixing them up in questions. Thanks, Abby

Hi, I have been working on this problem for a while: You place a book flat on a table and press down on it with your right hand. The hand-to-book and table-to-book coefficients of kinetic friction are 0.48 and 0.43 respectively. The book's mass is 1.14 kg and your downward push on it is 9.70 N...

Homework Statement I'm going to cut from the initial part of the problem, which I am confident is good to go, and cut straight to the antiderivatives. Homework Equations All antiderivatives are to be integrated on the interval from 0 to π/18 (I1) = -1/9 cos 9x - (I2) (-2/27 * cos3(9x)) + (I3)...

I am designing a flat plate heat exchanger for a project and I am not sure where to start with the hand calculations, specifically the LMTD and E-NTU methods, also how to work out the parameters which i will need to complete these methods such as area and number of plates. My deadline is soon...

I'm just really confused with this right hand rule even though it seems like it's supposed to be pretty simple and obvious. I know the rules, however it doesn't really work for me. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I have three examples I'd like to cover which are related to each other, I hope...

Homework Statement I understand that the right hand rule is a convention to give the movement of charged particles around a current carrying wire, but why is it possible to have a standard convention? Why can't the charge particles move either way? Why does the movement of particles in that...

Hello there, people! I am quite new here; in fact, this is my first post. I am quite strange to this place. Feeling kinda welcome, though. Okay, so short to the point. I am an 8th grader, and my school just started teaching us about electricity. Well, the basics. I knew much about it, much...

Hi, I am familiar with drawing rays through a lens. But when a few lenses are put together, things become confusing to me. For example, if a first positive thin lens at 0 forms a real image 10cm away, what would happen when we put a second positive thin lens, say at 5cm along the optical...

Show that $\lim_{{x}\to{0}}$ $\frac{1}{x}$ does not exist? Please tell me how to make LHL and RHL for this? Explain me all steps used?

More acidity means more electronegativity, and more electronegativity means more dipole moments. I observed that liquids with low dipole moments (bases) often have lower density and surface tension, but not necessarily hydrogen bonds. To contradict it, acetic acid have a low surface tension but...

Hey all, I'm currently working a Calculus problem that requires me to sketch f(x)=(3x-1)/(x-1)^2 without using a calculator. Part A: Requires that we find; i. x-intercept: f(0)=(3*0-1)/(0-1)^2=-1 So f(0)=-1 ii. y-intercept: f(x)=0 therefore; 3x-1=0 or x=1/3 So f(1/3)=0 iii. horizontal...

Homework Statement When an object is static (not moving), forces and moments must balance to zero. A moment here is defined as the force applied to an object multiplied by the distance from the point of rotation (torque). A simple way of thinking about moment balances is to consider a seesaw...

I was watching a program on the worlds largest cruise ship, the Oasis of the Seas. It displaces 243000 tons. They we're discussing the sophisticated maneuvering systems and I got to thinking. Let's say the ship is docked, within a foot of the dock and untethered. If I sat down with my legs...

Hello, Been a while since I posted on here, nice to be back :) . I just want some pointers as to the methodology for an impact load case that I'm looking at. I've attached a very basic sketch of a trolley which is traveling at a known velocity and impacts a rigid structure at it's base. What...

I know that you probably get tired of weird questions like this so I apologize in advance. I was thinking about length contraction in special relativity. I was thinking if superman was moving towards a basket ball at close to the speed of light when he passed it from his frame of reference it...

Can I use Fleming's right hand rule to determine the direction of current when a magnet is moved into a coil(s) of wire? I am finding it difficult because the magnetic field and movement are parallel instead of at right angles. If not, does this mean I am only allowed to use it when a wire...
