The initial velocity of the train is 12.56 m/s.

<h3>Initial velocity</h3>

The initial velocity of the train can be determined by using the first kinematic equation as shown below;

v = u + at

u = v - at

where;

v is the final velocity = 110 km/h = 30.56 m/s
u is the initial velocity

u = 30.56 - (36 x 0.5)

u = 12.56 m/s

Thus, the initial velocity of the train is 12.56 m/s.

A long solenoid has 103 turns/cm and carries current i. An electron moves within the solenoid in a circle of radius 2.60 cm perp

Aneli [31]

Answer:

0.23348 A

Explanation:

B = Magnetic field

v = Velocity of electron = $1.38\times 10^7\ m/s$

q = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

$\mu_0$ = Vacuum permeability = $4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m$

r = Radius of circle = 0.026 m

N = Number of turns = 103 turns/cm = $103\times 100\ turns/m$

I = Current

The magnetic and centripetal force will be balanced

$Bqv=m\frac{v^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow B=\frac{mv}{qr}$

The magnetic field in solenoid is given by

$B=N\mu_0 I\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{B}{N\mu_0}$

From the first equation

$I=\frac{\frac{mv}{qr}}{N\mu_0}\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{mv}{N\mu_0qr}\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 1.38\times 10^7}{103\times 100\times 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.026}\\\Rightarrow I=0.23348\ A$

The current in the solenoid is 0.23348 A

Which waves cause the medium to vibrate only in a direction parrallel?

34kurt

A longitudinal wave is a mechanical wave that causes the medium to vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. Its wave’s forces travel through multiple rarefactions and compressions where compression is the closest distance in the longitudinal wave and rarefaction is the farthest distance apart in the said wave.
