Does a compass remain stable or it fluctuate?

A compass is stable in it's attraction to a specific magnetic pole. Any instability detected is the fluctuation of the always moving magnetic field. Or probably more typically has been induced by vibration of the compass


When a proton move freely in a magnetic field what will be effect on momentum and speed?

When a proton moves freely in a magnetic field, its momentum will not change but its direction will be affected. The proton will experience a force perpendicular to its velocity, causing it to move in a circular path, hence its speed will remain constant.


What happens when you randomly move the bar magnet round about and above the compass one foot or farther?

When you move the bar magnet around and above the compass about one foot away or farther, the compass needle will not be affected by the magnetic field of the bar magnet. The influence of the magnetic field decreases with distance, so at one foot or more away, the compass needle will remain pointing north as it is not close enough to be affected.


How does a speedometer needle move when a car is moving with constant velocity speeding up and slowing down?

When a car is moving with constant velocity, the speedometer needle will remain steady and point to a consistent speed. When the car speeds up, the needle will move clockwise to reflect the increase in speed. Conversely, when the car slows down, the needle will move counterclockwise to indicate the decrease in speed.


Why does a solid needle placed horizontally on the surface of the water float?

The surface tension of water creates a layer that the needle rests on, despite being denser than water. The needle's weight is dispersed over a large enough area that it balances the upward force of surface tension. This allows the needle to remain afloat on the water's surface.

What is the difference between magnetic meridian and geographical meridian?

the vertical plane passing through magnetic axis is magnetic meridain and the vertical plane passing through geographical axis in geographical meridain.the intersting fact is they are not parallel...but remain at certain angle ..the maximum angle made is 17 degree


What direction does the needle on a compass point when a horseshoe magnet is put beside it?

The direction of the needle will remain unchanged. This is due to magnetic forces, the needle will remain in line with the lines of magnetic force which flow between the north and south poles.

What change do you think there would be in the magnetic fied if the current went down instead of up the wire?

If the current direction in the wire changes from going up to going down, the direction of the magnetic field around the wire will reverse. This is governed by the right-hand rule, where the direction of the magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of current flow. Overall, the magnitude of the magnetic field would remain the same, but its direction would be opposite.


What is the difference between parallel and perpendicular planes?

Parallel lines never intersect and remain equal distance from each other but perpendicular lines intersect at right angles


How are the prisms similar?

They all have cross sections that remain constant when intersected by a plane perpendicular to their lengths.


Will steel nails that are joined by a magnet remain joined if the magnet is removed?

In general, steel nails will not remain "joined" if a magnet touching them is removed. It is important to note that nails affected by a magnet retain a weak "impression" of the field and remain slightly magnetic. But the magnetic field "impressed" on the nails will be quite small and will not hold the nails together once the magnetic is removed.


What is directional properties of a magnet?

The directive property of magnetism states that when a magnet is suspended in air, it's N and S (north and south) axis's will remain in the same direction as the earths magnetic meridian. I.e. It will continuously point north and south. If you were to mark one side red and one side blue and spin the magnetic 6 times it would still resort back to the original direction it was in.


Can things hover in a magnetic field?

Yes, certain objects can be suspended or "hover" in a magnetic field due to magnetic levitation. This occurs when a magnetic force counters the gravitational force acting on the object, allowing it to remain suspended in mid-air.


What is the word that means magnetic properties of minerals that remain in rocks after they harden?

The word is "remnant magnetization."
