The needle of a compass will always lies along the magnetic
field lines of the earth.
A magnetic declination at a point on the earth’s surface
equal to zero implies that
the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field line
at that specific point lies along
the line of the north-south magnetic poles. </span>
The presence of a
current-carrying wire creates an additional <span>
magnetic field that combines with the earth’s magnetic field.
Since magnetic
<span>fields are vector quantities, therefore the magnetic field of
the earth and the magnetic field of the vertical wire must be
combined vectorially. </span></span>
<span>
Where:</span>
B1 = magnetic field of
the earth along the x-axis = 0.45 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T
B2 = magnetic field due to
the straight vertical wire along the y-axis
We can calculate for B2
using Amperes Law:
B2 = μ₀ i / [ 2 π R ]
B2 = [ 4π × 10 ⁻ ⁷ T • m / A ] ( 36 A ) / [ 2 π (0.21 m ) ] <span>
B2 = 5.97 × 10 ⁻ ⁵ T = 0.60 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T </span>
The angle can be
calculated using tan function:<span>
tan θ = y / x = B₂ / B₁ = 0.60 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T / 0.45 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T <span>
tan θ = 1.326</span></span>
θ = 53°
<span>
<span>The compass needle points along the direction of 53° west of
north.</span></span>
Answer:
1.24 C
Explanation:
We know that the magnitude of the induced emf, ε = -ΔΦ/Δt where Φ = magnetic flux and t = time. Now ΔΦ = Δ(AB) = AΔB where A = area of coil and change in magnetic flux = Now ΔB = 0 - 0.750 T = -0.750 T, since the magnetic field changes from 0.750 T to 0 T.
The are , A of the circular loop is πD²/4 where D = diameter of circular loop = 16.7 cm = 16.7 × 10⁻²m
So, ε = -ΔΦ/Δt = -AΔB/Δt= -πD²/4 × -0.750 T/Δt = 0.750πD²/4Δt.
Also, the induced emf ε = iR where i = current in the coil and R = resistance of wire = ρl/A where ρ = resistivity of copper wire =1.68 × 10⁻⁸ Ωm, l = length of wire = πD and A = cross-sectional area of wire = πd²/4 where d = diameter of wire = 2.25 mm = 2.25 × 10⁻³ m.
So, ε = iR = iρl/A = iρπD/πd²/4 = 4iρD/d²
So, 4iρD/d² = 0.750πD²/4Δt.
iΔt = 0.750πD²/4 ÷ 4iρD/d²
iΔt = 0.750πD²d²/16ρ.
So the charge Q = iΔt
= 0.750π(Dd)²/16ρ
= 0.750π(16.7 × 10⁻²m 2.25 × 10⁻³ m)²/16(1.68 × 10⁻⁸ Ωm)
= 123.76 × 10⁻² C
= 1.2376 C
≅ 1.24 C
Solution :
Given the laser light which is sent through the double slit produces an interference pattern on the screen placed 3 meters from the slits.
The 8th order maximum occurs at angle = 12
So,
, m = 8
Answer:Our home planet Earth is a rocky, terrestrial planet. It has a solid and active surface with mountains, valleys, canyons, plains and so much more. Earth is special because it is an ocean planet. Water covers 70% of Earth's surface.
