Answer:

The thumb of the right hand must point in the direction of the current.

Explanation:

The right hand rule is used to find the direction of magnetic field around a current-carrying wire. In this rule, it is consider to hold a current carrying wire in your right hand such that the thumb shows the direction of current. The curled finger gives the direction of magnetic field.

For example, if the current points in northward direction, then the direction of magnetic field is in anticlockwise direction.

Answer:

Thumb

Explanation:

The direction of the magnetic field can be determined by using the right-hand rule. According to this rule, hold a current carrying wire in your right hand such that the thumb of the right-hand point in the direction of electric current. The curled finger gives the direction of the magnetic field.

Hence, the thumb shows the electric current.

At a construction site, the site manager notices that a crane takes 20 seconds to lift a 500kg steel beam up to a height of 15 m

posledela

The work done is equal to the change in potential energy which is:
P.E = mgh
P.E = 500 x 9.81 x 15
P.E = 73,575 J

Power = work / time
Power = 73,575 / 20
Power = 3,700 Watts

Sam makes six star-shaped cookies out of dough. He puts all of the cookies on a balance and measures the total weight as 36 gram

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is "36 grams".

Explanation:

In this question, the weight of the ball is not mentioned but is the weight of the cookies is declared, which is equal to 36 grams, and all the cookies are squeezes into the ball and after that, it calculates the overall weight so, let assume that ball weight is =0 and then the overall weight is:

$=\text{weight of ball + cookies weight}\\\\=0+36 \ grams \\\\=36 \ grams$
