The closest stars are 4 light years away from us. How far away must you be from a 854 kHz radio station with power 50.0 kW for t
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The distance from the radio station is 0.28 light years away.

Solution:

As per the question:

Distance, d = 4 ly

Frequency of the radio station, f = 854 kHz = 854\times 10^{3}\ Hz

Power, P = 50 kW = 50\times 10^{3}\ W

I_{p} = 1\ photon/s/m^{2}

Now,

From the relation:

P = nhf

where

n = no. of photons/second

h = Planck's constant

f = frequency

Now,

n = \frac{P}{hf} = \frac{50\times 10^{3}}{6.626\times 10^{- 34}\times 854\times 10^{3}} = 8.836\times 10^{31}\ photons/s

Area of the sphere, A = 4\pi r^{2}

Now,

Suppose the distance from the radio station be 'r' from where the intensity of the photon is 1\ photon/s/m^{2}

I_{p} = \frac{n}{A} = \frac{n}{4\pi r^{2}}

1 = \frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi r^{2}}

r = \sqrt{\frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi}} = 2.65\times 10^{15}\ m

Now,

We know that:

1 ly = 9.4607\times 10^{15}\ m

Thus

r = \frac{2.65\times 10^{15}}{9.4607\times 10^{15}} = 0.28\ ly

A cyclotron with a magnetic field of 0.47 t is designed to accelerate protons in a circle with a radius 0.68 m. What is the angu
Ghella [55]

The angular frequency of the cyclotron is 0.07 x 10^{8}Hz.

<h3>What is angular frequency?</h3>
  • Angular frequency, abbreviated "ω" is a scalar measure of rotation rate in physics.
  • It describes the rate of change of the argument of the sine function, the rate of change of the phase of a sinusoidal waveform, or the angular displacement per unit of time.
<h3>What is cyclotron?</h3>

The cyclotron device is made to accelerate charge particles to extremely high speeds by applying crossed electric and magnetic fields.

<h3>Calculation of angular frequency:</h3>

Given,

B = 0.47 T

r = 0.68

mass of proton = 1.6x10^{-27}

q = 1.6 x 10^{-19}

so, the frequency is:

f = qB/2\pim

f = 1.6 x 10^{-19} x 0.47/2x3.14x1.6x10^{-27}

f = 0.07 x 10^{8}

Hence, the angular frequency of the cyclotron is  0.07 x 10^{8}Hz.

Consider a loop of wire with a resistor. In the same plane, (with switch S closed) a long wire has a current I flowing from left
Ulleksa [173]

Solution :

The given figure is a loop of a wire with a resistor.

When the switch S is closed for long time and is suddenly opened, the direction of the induced current can be find out by using the rule of right hand screw. According to the right hand screw rule, the direction of the magnetic field at the loop is in the direction that points outwards. The strength of the current rapidly decreases as it is switch off and the magnetic flux that is linked with the loop wire will also decrease.

According to the Lenz's law, the direction of the induced current must be such $\text{that it opposes}$ the decrease in the magnetic flux.  It means the direction of the magnetic field must be outwards and also normal to the plane of the screen. The direction of the induced anti clockwise or from right to left in the resistance.
