An airplane is initially flying horizontally (not gaining or losing altitude), and heading exactly North. Suppose that the earth

's magnetic field at this point is also exactly horizontal, and points from South to North (it really does!). The airplane now starts a different motion. It maintains the same speed, but gains altitude at a constant rate, still heading North. The magnitude of the electric potential difference between the wingtips has...

Note: The answer choices are :

a) Increased

b) Decreased

c) stayed the same

Answer:

The correct option is Increased

The magnitude of the electric field potential difference between the wingtips increases.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric potential difference is the induced emf and is given by the equation:

emf = l (v \times B)

where l = length

v = velocity

B = magnetic field

As the altitude of the airplane increases, the magnetic flux becomes stronger, the speed of the airplane becomes perpendicular to the magnetic field, i.e. v \times B = vB sin90 = vB\\ ,

the induced emf = vlB, and thus increases.

The magnitude of the electric field potential difference between the wingtips increases

xenn [34]

The magnitude of your displacement can be equal to the distance you covered, or it can be less than the distance you covered.  But it can never be greater than the distance you covered.

This is because displacement is a straight line, whereas distance can be a straight line, a squiggly line, a zig-zag line, a line with loops in it, a line with a bunch of back-and-forths in it, or any other kind of line.

The straight line is always the shortest path between two points.

What is the definition of reflection of light?​
Savatey [412]

Answer: Reflection is the change in direction of a wavefront at an interface between two different media so that the wavefront returns into the medium from which it originated. Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves.
