Consider a field of insects, all of which have essentially the same mass.

If the total momentum of the insects is zero, this means all of the insects are at rest or are moving in opposite of each other. Same if the total kinetic energy is zero.

<h3>What is momentum? </h3>

Momentum is the quantity of motion which is multiplied by the amount of matter moved i.e., mass and the velocity at which it moves. Because, the object is in motion, it is a vector quantity, it has both direction and magnitude. It is determined by the product of the object's mass and the velocity of object.

If the total momentum of the insects is zero, this could mean anything of the two things. Either, all of the insects are at rest or an equal amount of insects are moving in opposite direction of each other which cancels out the total momentum of the insects.

If the total kinetic energy of the insects is zero, this means either all of the insects are at rest or an equal amount of insects are moving in opposite direction of one another which results into canceling out the energy.

Travka [436]

Answer:

(a)   ΔФ = -0.109W

(b)  emf = 28.43V

(c)   Iin = emf/R

Explanation:

(a) In order to calculate the magnetic flux you use the following formula:

\Delta\Phi_B=\Phi-\Phi_o=BAcos(90\°)-BAcos(0\°)   (1)

B: magnitude of the magnetic field = 1.40T

A: area of the rectangular coil = (0.23m)(0.34m)=0.078m^2

Where it has been taken into account that at the beginning the normal vector to the cross sectional area of the coil, and the magnetic field vector are parallel. When the coil is rotated the vectors are perpendicular.

Then, you obtain:

\Delta\Phi_B=(1.40T)(0.078m^2)=-0.109W

The change in the magnetic flux is -0.109 W

(b) During the rotation of the coil the emf induced is given by:

emf=-N\frac{\Delta \Phi}{\Delta t}         (2)

N: turns of the coil = 60

ΔФ: change in the magnetic flux = 0.109W

Δt: lapse time of the rotation = 0.230s

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (2):

emf=-(60)(\frac{-0.109W}{0.230s})=28.43V

The induced emf is 28.43V

(c) The induced current in the coil is given by:

I_{in}=\frac{emf}{R}      (3)

R: resistance of the coil     (it is necessary to have this value)

emf :induced emf  = 28.43V

The energy of an onject as it is in motion is defined as?
Ivan

The energy of an object as it is in motion is defined as Kinetic energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The energy that is attained by an object when it is moving is called as Kinetic energy. It is the amount of energy that is essential for inducing an acceleration in an object and making it to displace from its idle position to the destination. When an object attains the acceleration it can have this kinetic energy until there is a change in the speed of the object with which it moves.

The forms of energy changes and it can take any form like thermal, electrical, electromagnetic,etc. Potential and kinetic energy are the two things under which these forms are energy are grouped. There can be a transferring of Kinetic energy from one object to another. The kinetic energy can also take any form of energy.

What is oxygenated blood? De-oxygenated blood?
WITCHER [35]
Oxygenated blood that has oxygen in them while de-oxygenated blood has carbon dioxide. in which the oxygenated blood carries the oxygen throughout the body since that cells need oxygen to function. called "gas exchange." once the cells got their required oxygen. the carbon dioxide needs somewhere to go, thus having deoxygenated blood. and that carbon dioxide needs to get out of the body

Mechanical advantage worksheet
noname [10]

Answer:

the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it, used in assessing the performance of a machine.

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system. The device preserves the input power and simply trades off forces against movement to obtain a desired amplification in the output force. The model for this is the law of the lever.
