The force is greatest when the wire is perpendicular to the magnetic field.

In fact, the expression for the magnetic force is
$F=ILB \sin \theta$
where I is the current, L the length of the wire, B the magnetic field intensity and $\theta$ is the angle between the directions of I and B.

We can see that F is maximum when $\sin \theta=1$ , so when $\theta = 90^{\circ}$ , so when the wire and the magnetic field are perpendicular to each other.

A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 80.6 m/s at ground level.

kow [346]

Before the engines fail, the rocket's altitude at time <em>t</em> is given by

$y_1(t)=\left(80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac12\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2$

and its velocity is

$v_1(t)=80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}+\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t$

The rocket then reaches an altitude of 1150 m at time <em>t</em> such that

$1150\,\mathrm m=\left(80.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t+\dfrac12\left(3.90\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2$

Solve for <em>t</em> to find this time to be

$t=11.2\,\mathrm s$

At this time, the rocket attains a velocity of

$v_1(11.2\,\mathrm s)=124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

When it's in freefall, the rocket's altitude is given by

$y_2(t)=1150\,\mathrm m+\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2$

where $g=9.80\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}$ is the acceleration due to gravity, and its velocity is

$v_2(t)=124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt$

(a) After the first 11.2 s of flight, the rocket is in the air for as long as it takes for $y_2(t)$ to reach 0:

$1150\,\mathrm m+\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=32.6\,\mathrm s$

So the rocket is in motion for a total of 11.2 s + 32.6 s = 43.4 s.

(b) Recall that

${v_f}^2-{v_i}^2=2a\Delta y$

where $v_f$ and $v_i$ denote final and initial velocities, respecitively, $a$ denotes acceleration, and $\Delta y$ the difference in altitudes over some time interval. At its maximum height, the rocket has zero velocity. After the engines fail, the rocket will keep moving upward for a little while before it starts to fall to the ground, which means $y_2$ will contain the information we need to find the maximum height.

$-\left(124\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2=-2g(y_{\rm max}-1150\,\mathrm m)$

Solve for $y_{\rm max}$ and we find that the rocket reaches a maximum altitude of about 1930 m.

(c) In part (a), we found the time it takes for the rocket to hit the ground (relative to $y_2(t)$ ) to be about 32.6 s. Plug this into $v_2(t)$ to find the velocity before it crashes:

$v_2(32.6\,\mathrm s)=-196\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

That is, the rocket has a velocity of 196 m/s in the downward direction as it hits the ground.

Is a process that modifies light waves so they vibrate in a single plane

madam [21]

The process you're fishing for is "polarization", but that's a

misleading description.

Polarization doesn't do anything to change the light waves.

It simply filters out (absorbs, as with a polarizing filter) the

light waves that aren't vibrating in the desired plane, and

allows only those that are to pass.

The intensity of a light beam is always reduced after

polarizing it, because much (most) of the original light

has been removed.

A laser light source may be thought of as an exception,

since everything coming out of the laser is polarized.

a gym consists of a rectangular region with a semi-circle on each end. if the perimeter of the room is to be a 200 m running tra

Nikolay [14]

The dimensions of the rectangle are:

l = 50 m

b = $100/\pi$ m

<h3>What is a perimeter in math?</h3>

The perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square you have to add the lengths of all the four sides.

<h3>How do we find a perimeter of a rectangle?</h3>

The perimeter of a rectangle,denoted by P is given by the formula, P=2l+2b, where l is the length and b is the breadth of the rectangle.

<h3>Given:</h3>

As per the question:

Perimeter of the room is given as P = 200 m

The region is rectangular having a semicircle at each end.

Now,

Let 'l' be the length of the rectangle, 'b' be its breadth and 'r' be the radius of the semi-circle at each end.

Then, Area of the given rectangle, A = lb

Perimeter of the room, P is = $\pi r+l+\pi r+l=2\pi r+2l=\pi b+2l$

Therefore, $\pi b+2l=200$

$b=(200-2l)/\pi$

Now,

Area, A = $l(200-2l)/\pi=(200l-2l^{2} )/\pi$

Now, differentiate A w.r.t l:

Again differentiating w.r.t 'l', we get:

$d^{2} A/dl^{2} =-4l/\pi$ < 0

Thus we get maximum are when $dA/dl=0$

Therefore,

$(200-4l)/\pi=0$

l = 50 m

Now, from

$\pi b+2l=200$

$\pi b=200-2*50$

$b=100/\pi$

$r=b/2=50/\pi$

Two resistors have resistances R(smaller) and R(larger), where R(smaller) < R(larger). When the resistors are connected in se

just olya [345]

Answer:

1.61ohms and 4.39ohms

Explanation:

According to ohm's law which States that the current (I) passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference (V) across its ends. Mathematically, E = IRt where;

E is the electromotive force

I is the current

Rt is the effective resistance

Let the resistances be R and r

When the resistors are connected in series to a 12.0-V battery and the current from the battery is 2.00 A, the equation becomes;

12 = 2(R+r)

Rt = R+r (connection in series)

6 = R+r ...(1)

If the resistors are connected in parallel to the battery and the total current from the battery is 10.2 A, the equation will become;

12 = 10.2(1/R+1/r)

Since 1/Rt = 1/R+1/r (parallel connection)

Rt = R×r/R+r

12 = 10.2(Rr/R+r)

12(R+r) = 10.2Rr ... (2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously to get the resistances. From (1), R = 6-r...(3)

Substituting equation 3 into 2 we have;

12{(6-r)+r} = 10.2(6-r)r

12(6-r+r) = 10.2(6r-r²)

72 = 10.2(6r-r²)

36 = 5.1(6r-r²)

36 = 30.6r-5.1r²

5.1r²-30.6r +36 =

r = 30.6±√30.6²-4(5.1)(36)/2(5.1)

r = 30.6±√936.36-734.4/10.2

r = 30.6±√201.96/10.2

r = 30.6±14.2/10.2

r = 44.8/10.2 and r = 16.4/10.2

r = 4.39 and 1.61ohms

Since R+r = 6

R+1.61 = 6

R = 6-1.61

R = 4.39ohms

Therefore the resistances are 1.61ohms and 4.39ohms

An amount of energy is added to ice, raising its temperature from -10Â°C to -5Â°C. A larger amount of energy is added to the sam

lara [203]

Answer:

The correct option is;

B) The specific heat of ice is less than that of water.

Explanation:

Here we have

Let the amount of energy added to the ice at -10 C to raise the temperature to -5 C be X J

Let the amount of energy added to the water at 15 C to raise the temperature to 20 C be Y J

We know that the heat required, ΔQ to raise the temperature of a substance is given by

ΔQ = m·c·Δθ

Where:

m = Mass of the substance

c = Specific heat capacity

Δθ = Temperature change

Since the mass of the ice and the water are the same, so also is the change in temperature, (-5 - (-10) = 5 and 20 - 15 = 5) we have

for m₂·c₂·Δθ₂ > m₁·c₁·Δθ₁

Where:

m₁, c₁, Δθ₁, is for the ice and m₂, c₂, Δθ₂ is for the water and

m₁ = m₂

Δθ₁ = Δθ₂

Therefore,

c₂ > c₁ = c₁ < c₂

That is the specific heat capacity of the ice is lesser than the specific heat capacity of the water.
