What Are the Key Concepts and Applications of Magnetism?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on key concepts and applications of magnetism, with specific questions about material properties, magnetic fields around conductors, solenoid field directions, relay actions, and the relationship between magnetism and telephone development. Participants emphasize the importance of understanding concepts rather than simply seeking answers, urging the questioner to research independently before asking for clarification. There is a tension between the desire to help and frustration over repeated questions without effort to learn. The conversation highlights the need for respectful communication and constructive engagement in educational discussions. Overall, the thread underscores the significance of foundational knowledge in magnetism for practical applications.

I just have some questions about this stuff...

How can the nature of a material determine if it can be made into a magnet?

Whats the field around a straight conducter look like?

Whats the direction of the magnetic field of a soleniod?

Whats the action of a relay?

How are the principles of magnetism related to the development of the telephone?

You can't just post questions verbatim in the homework thread - we are here to help and explain not just to copy out answers.
Especially when you were told about this yesterday and have simply reposted the same questions as a new thread.
Irrespective of the official sanctions about this, people will simply start ignoring any threads by you.

I suggest you look at wikipedia first then come back and ask about any specific points you don't understand.
 
Whoa calm it down, seroiusly wat is your problem? I am asking the question becuase i do not understand the answers? and i thought the thing from yesterday was telling me that my questions didnt make sense and i had to reword them, like you can either help or not but don't run me down on what i feel i need help on. thanks.!
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
