An incredible amount of electrical energy passes down the funnel of a large tornado every second. Measurements taken in Oklahoma

at a distance of 9.00 km from a large tornado showed an almost constant magnetic field of 1.50 · 10 -8 T associated with the tornado. What was the average current going down the funnel? (µo = 4π · 10 -7 T·m/A)

Answer:

675 A

Explanation:

B = 1.5 x 10^-8 T

r = 9 km = 9000 m

Let the current be i

The formula for the magnetic filed due to a very long straight conductor is given by

$B =\frac{\mu_{0}}{4\pi }\times \frac{2i}{r}$

$1.5\times 10^{-8} =10^{-7}\times \frac{2i}{9000}$

i = 675 A

Say that you are in a large room at temperature TC = 300 K. Someone gives you a pot of hot soup at a temperature of TH = 340 K.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:0.061

Explanation:

Given

$T_C=300 k$

Temperature of soup $T_H=340 K$

heat capacity of soup $c_v=33 J/K$

Here Temperature of soup is constantly decreasing

suppose T is the temperature of soup at any instant

efficiency is given by

$\eta =\frac{dW}{Q}=1-\frac{T_C}{T}$

$dW=Q(1-\frac{T_C}{T})$

$dW=c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT$

integrating From $T_H$ to $T_C$

$\int dW=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT$

$W=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}33\cdot (1-\frac{300}{T})dT$

$W=c_v\left [ T-T_C\ln T\right ]_{T_H}^{T_C}$

$W=c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]$

Now heat lost by soup is given by

$Q=c_v(T_C-T_H)$

Fraction of the total heat that is lost by the soup can be turned is given by

$=\frac{W}{Q}$

$=\frac{c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]}{c_v(T_C-T_H)}$

$=\frac{T_C-T_H-T_C\ln (\frac{T_C}{T_H})}{T_C-T_H}$

$=\frac{300-340-300\ln (\frac{300}{340})}{300-340}$

$=\frac{-40+37.548}{-40}$

$=0.061$

A solid brass cylinder and a solid wood cylinder have the same radius and mass (the wood cylinder is longer). Released together

Lena [83]

Answer:

a. They will be tie

b. Win the wood cylinder

Explanation:

a.

The both cylinders will reach the bottom at the same time notice the relation in the equation in indepent of the length and both have the same radius and the same rotational inertia.

$I=\frac{1}{2}*m*r^2$

$a=\frac{g*sin(\beta)}{1+I_{com}/m*r^2}$

So both will be tie

b.

$a_{brass}=\frac{g*sin(\beta)}{1+I_{brass}/m*r^2}=a_{wood}=\frac{g*sin(\beta)}{1+I_{wood}/m*r^2}$

The acceleration of the wood cylinder is larger than the acceleration of the brass cylinder so the cylinder of wood will reach the bottom first

$a_{brass}$

So the wood win the race

What is Newton's Second Law?

Rudiy27

Answer:

An object's acceleration depends on its mass and on the net force acting on it.

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the net force and inversely related to its mass. Acceleration of an object depends on two things, force and mass.

Which statements describe magnetic poles? Check all that apply.

Alex_Xolod [135]

Explanation:

Magnet: It has two poles: South pole and North pole.

Magnetic field lines are stronger near the poles of the magnet.

Same poles repel each other. There is a magnetic force of repulsion between the same poles. North- North poles repel each other.

Unlike poles attract each other. There is magnetic force of attraction between the opposite poles. South- North poles attract each other.

Mono poles cannot exist.

From the given statements, the magnetic poles are described by:

A north pole must exist with a south pole.

Two south poles placed near each other will repel each other.

A north pole and a south pole placed near each other will attract each other.
