The tension in the string B) It quadruples.

Explanation:

The ball is in uniform circular motion in a horizontal circle, so the tension in the string is providing the centripetal force that keeps the ball in circular motion. So we can write:

T= m\frac{v^2}{r}

where:

T is the tension in the string

m is the mass of the ball

v is the speed of the ball

r is the radius of the circle (the lenght of the string)

In this problem, we are told that the speed of the ball is doubled, so

v' = 2v

Substituting into the previous equation, we find the new tension in the string:

T' = m \frac{(2v)^2}{r}=4(m\frac{v^2}{r})=4T

Therefore, the tension in the string will quadruple.

A circular loop carrying a current of 1.6 A is oriented in a magnetic field of 0.30 T. The loop has an area of 0.14 m 2 and is m
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The torque on the loop is 2.4 \times 10^{-2} Nm

Explanation:

Given:

Current I = 1.6 A

Magnetic field B = 0.30 T

Area of loop A = 0.14 m^{2}

Angle between magnetic field and area vector \theta = 21°

Form the formula of  torque in case of magnetic field,

 г = MB \sin \theta

Where M = magnetic moment

  M = IA

 г = IAB \sin 21

 г = 1.6 \times 0.30 \times 0.14 \times 0.3583

 г =2.4 \times 10^{-2} Nm

Therefore, the torque on the loop is 2.4 \times 10^{-2} Nm

Answer: 40.4M/s

Solution: 46.6/1.15 = 40.4347826 then round it to a single decimal point, since 3 is lower than 5 it will be rounded to 40.4
