Answer:

A. T=126N

B. T=63N

Explanation:

To determine the tension in each given blocks, we first determine the acceleration of each block. It obvious that each mass will move with the same acceleration since the string connecting them is massless.

Hence using the equation of force we have

F=ma

Where m=total mass of blocks,

a=acceleration

F= force applied in this case the tension in the string.

For a 134 identical masses with an applied force of 134N, the acceleration of each mass can be computed as

134=134m*a

a=134/134m

a=(1/m )m/s²

a. To calculate the tension in the string between the 126 and 127 block, we use the equation below

T=ma

Since the number of blocks before the string is 126, we multiply the mass of each block by 126.

Hence the tension can be computed as

T=126m*a

Since a=1/m then

T=126m*1/m

T=126N

B.To calculate the tension in the string between the 63 and 64 block, we use the equation below

T=ma

Since the number of blocks before the string is 63, we multiply the mass of each block by 63.

Hence the tension can be computed as

T=63m*a

Since a=1/m then

T=63m*1/m

T=63N

Two parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.7 mm, have only air between them, and each have surface area
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

5.63\cdot 10^{-6} C

Explanation:

The capacitor of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by:

C=\epsilon_0 \frac{A}{d}

where

A is the area of each plate

d is the separation between the plates

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

The energy stored in a capacitor instead is given by

U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2}{C}

where

Q is the charge stored in each plate

Substituting the expression we found for C inside the last formula,

U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2 d}{\epsilon_0 A}

And re-arranging it

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2U\epsilon_0 A}{d}}

Now if we substitute

d=1.7 mm=0.0017 m\\A=16 cm^2 = 16\cdot 10^{-4} m^2\\U = 1.9 J

We find the charge stored on the capacitor:

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.9)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(16\cdot 10^{-4})}{0.0017}}=5.63\cdot 10^{-6} C

Light striking a metal surface causes electrons to be emitted from the metal via the photoelectric effect.In a particular experi
ANEK [815]

The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases if the intensity of the incident light is increased.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

As a result of photoelectric effect, electrons are emitted by the light incident on a metal surface. The emitted electrons count and its kinetic energy can measure as the function of light intensity and frequency. Like physicists, at the 20th century beginning, it should be expected that the light wave's energy (its intensity) will be transformed into the kinetic energy of emitted electrons.

In addition, the electrons count emitting from metal must vary with light wave frequency. This frequency relationship was expected because the electric field oscillates due to the light wave and the metal electrons react to different frequencies. In other words, the number of electrons emitted was expected to be frequency dependent and their kinetic energy should be dependent on the intensity (constant wavelength) of light.

Thus, the maximum in kinetic energy of electrons emitted increases with increase in light's frequency and is experimentally independent of light intensity. So, the number of emitted electrons is proportionate to the intensity of the incident light.

When an unbalanced force acts on an object,
Gwar [14]
When balanced forces follow up on an object, the object won't move. If you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal but opposite force. Neither you nor the wall will move. Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object are unbalanced forces.

A coil has 400 turns and self-inductance 7.50 mH. The current in the coil varies with time according to i = 1680 mA2 cos [πt/(0.
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

(a) 1.58 V

(b) 0.0126 Wb

(c) 0.0493 V

Solution:

As per the question:

No. of turns in the coil, N = 400 turns

Self Inductance of the coil, L = 7.50 mH = 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\ H

Current in the coil, i = 1680cos[\frac{\pi t}{0.0250}] A

where

i_{max} = 1680\ mA = 1.680\ A

Now,

(a)  To calculate the maximum emf:

We know that maximum emf induced in the coil is given by:

e = \frac{Ldi}{dt}

e = L\frac{d}{dt}(1680)cos[\frac{\pi t}{0.0250}]

e = - 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\times \frac{\pi}{0.0250}\times \frac{d}{dt}(1680)sin[\frac{\pi t}{0.0250}]

For maximum emf, sin\theta should be maximum, i.e., 1

Now, the magnitude of the maximum emf is given by:

|e| = 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\times 1680\times 10^{- 3}\times \frac{\pi}{0.0250} = 1.58\ V

(b) To calculate the maximum average flux,we know that:

\phi_{m, avg} = L\times i_{max} = 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\times 1.680 = 0.0126\ Wb

(c) To calculate the magnitude of the induced emf at t = 0.0180 s:

e = e_{o}sin{\pi t}{0.0250}

e = 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\times sin{\pi \times 0.0180}{0.0250} = 2.96\times 10^{- 4} =0.0493\ V
