A magnet is moved in and out of a coil of wire connected to a high-resistance voltmeter. If the number of coils doubles, the ind
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

A. Doubles.

Explanation:

In an electromagnetic device such as a generator, when a wire (conductor) moves through the magnetic field between the South and North poles of a magnet, an electromotive force (e.m.f) is usually induced across a wire

The mode of operation of a generator is that a metal core with copper tightly wound to it (conductor coil) rotates rapidly between the two (2) poles of a horseshoe magnet type. Thus when the conductor coil rotates rapidly, it cuts the magnetic field existing between the poles of the horseshoe magnet and then induces the flow of current.

When a high-resistance voltmeter is connected to an electric circuit, a deflection will arise due to the flow of electricity. Moving the magnet towards the coil of wire will cause the needle of the high-resistance voltmeter to move in one direction. Also, as the magnet is moved out from the coil of wire, the needle of the high-resistance voltmeter moves in the opposite direction.

In this scenario, a magnet is moved in and out of a coil of wire connected to a high-resistance voltmeter. If the number of coils doubles, the induced voltage doubles because the number of turns (voltage) in the primary winding is directly proportional to the number of turns (voltage) in the secondary winding.

An ice skater spins at 2.5 rev/s when his arms are extended. He draws his arms in and spins at 10.0 rev/s. By what factor does h
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The moment of inertia decreased by a factor of 4

Explanation:

Given;

initial angular velocity of the ice skater, ω₁ = 2.5 rev/s

final angular velocity of the  ice skater, ω₂ = 10.0 rev/s

During this process we assume that angular momentum is conserved;

I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

Where;

I₁ is the initial moment of inertia

I₂ is the final moment of inertia

I_2 = \frac{I_1 \omega_1}{\omega_2} = \frac{I_1*2.5}{10} \\\\I_2 = 0.25I_1 = \frac{1}{4}I_1

Therefore, the moment of inertia decreased by a factor of 4

We use a battery to cause a continuous potential difference by getting charges to separate. Explain why the terminals of a batte
QveST [7]

Answer:

To create an electric potential difference between the ends of the conductor.

Explanation:

For current to flow, there must exist an electric potential difference between the ends of the conductor. This PD is provided by the electromotive force stored within the battery. Unless there is a connection between the terminals no PD will exist between the terminals.
