Inductor releases its stored energy before it is removed from the circuit.

<h3>What is an inductor?</h3>

A passive two-terminal electrical device known as an inductor, also known as a coil, choke, or reactor, stores energy in a magnetic field as electric current passes through it.
Typically, an inductor is made out of insulated wire twisted into a coil. According to Faraday's law of induction, the time-varying magnetic field generates an electromotive force (e.m.f.) (voltage) in the conductor as the current through the coil varies.
Lenz's law states that the induced voltage has an opposing polarity (direction) to the change in current that caused it. Inductors so reject any changes in the current flowing through them.

Inductance, which is the ratio of voltage to current change rate, is a property of inductors.

What is the amount of thermal energy needed to make 5 kg of ice at - 10 °C to

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The amount of thermal energy needed is 15167500 joules.

Explanation:

By First Law of Thermodynamics, we see that amount of thermal energy ( $Q$ ), in joules, is equal to the change in internal energy. From statement we understand that change in internal energy consisting in two latent components ( $U_{l,ice}$ , $U_{l,steam}$ ), in joules, and two sensible component ( $U_{s,w}$ ), in joules, that is:

$Q = U_{l,ice} + U_{s, w} + U_{s,ice} + U_{l,steam}$ (1)

By definitions of Sensible and Latent Heat, we expanded the formula:

$Q = m\cdot (h_{f,w}+h_{v,w}+c_{ice}\cdot \Delta T_{ice}+c_{w}\cdot \Delta T_{w})$ (2)

Where:

$m$ - Mass, in kilograms.

$h_{f,w}$ - Latent heat of fussion of water, in joules per kilogram.

$h_{v,w}$ - Latent heat of vaporization of water, in joules per kilogram.

$c_{ice}$ - Specific heat of ice, in joules per kilogram per degree Celsius.

$c_{w}$ - Specific heat of water, in joules per kilogram per degree Celsius.

$\Delta T_{ice}$ - Change in temperature of ice, measured in degrees Celsius.

$\Delta T_{w}$ - Change in temperature of water, measured in degrees Celsius.

If we know that $m = 5\,kg$ , $h_{f,w} = 3.34\times 10^{5}\,\frac{J}{kg}$ , $h_{v,w} = 2.26\times 10^{6}\,\frac{J}{kg}$ , $c_{ice} = 2.090\times 10^{3}\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ , $c_{w} = 4.186\times 10^{3}\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ , $\Delta T_{ice} = 10\,^{\circ}C$ and $\Delta T_{w} = 100\,^{\circ}C$ , then the amount of thermal energy is:

$Q = 15167500\,J$

The amount of thermal energy needed is 15167500 joules.

A long solenoid, of radius a, is driven by an alternating current, so that the field inside is sinusoidal: B(t) = B0 cos(ωt) ˆz.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

B(t) = B0 cos(ωt) • k

Radius r = a

Inner radius r' = a/2 and resistance R.

Current in the loop as a function of time I(t) =?

Magnetic flux is given as

Φ = BA

And the Area is given as

A = πr², where r = a/2

A = πa²/4

Then,

Φ = ¼ Bπa²

Φ(t) = ¼πa²Bo•Cos(ωt)

Then, the EMF is given as

ε(t) = -dΦ/dt

ε(t) = -¼πa²Bo • -ωSin(ωt)

ε(t) = ¼ωπa²Bo•Sin(ωt)

From ohms law,

ε = iR

Then, i = ε/R

I(t) = ¼ωπa²Bo•Sin(ωt) /R

This is the current induced in the loop.

A 75.0-kg man standing on a bathroom scale in an elevator. Calculate the scale in N, reading if the elevator moves upward at a c

Salsk061 [2.6K]

The scale in N, reading if the elevator moves upward at a constant speed of 1.5 m/s^2 is 862.5 N.

weight of man = 75kg

speed of elevator, a = 1.5 $m/ s^{2}$

$F - w = ma \\$

$F = w + ma$

$F = m ( a +g )$

$F = 75 ( 1.5 + 10 ) \\$

$F = 75 ( 11.5 )$

$F = 862.5 N$

So, the scale reading in the elevator is greater than his 862.5 N weight. This indicates that the person is being propelled upward by the scale, which it must do in order to do so, with a force larger than his weight. According to what you experience in quickly accelerating or slowly moving elevators, it is obvious that the faster the elevator acceleration, the greater the scale reading.

Speed can be defines as the pace at which the position of an object changes in any direction. Since speed simply has a direction and no magnitude, it is a scalar quantity.

Melanie completes a long distance run at an average speed of 6 mph. If it takes her 3 hours, how far did she run?

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

18 miles

Explanation:

The average speed is 6 mph

Melanie ran for 3 hours

Speed × Time = Distance

So, 6 mph × 3 h = 18 miles
