It is known that birds can detect the earth's magnetic field, but the mechanism of how they do this is not known. It has been su

ggested that perhaps they detect a motional EMF as they fly north to south, but it turns out that the induced voltages are small compared to the voltages normally encountered in cells, so this is probably not the mechanism involved. To check this out, calculate the induced voltage for a wild goose with a wingspan of 1.2 m flying due south at 13 m/s at a point where the earth's magnetic field is 5 × 10-5T directed downward from horizontal by 40°. The expected voltage would be about

Answer:

EMF = 5.01 \times 10^{-4} Volts

Explanation:

Here we know that the EMF induced in this Field is given as

EMF = vBL

here B = perpendicular component of magnetic field

v = speed of the bird

L = length of the wings

now we have

B = 5\times 10^{-5} sin40

v = 13 m/s

L = 1.2 m

now we have

EMF = (13)(3.21 \times 10^{-5})(1.2)

EMF = 5.01 \times 10^{-4} Volts

Based on the image, which is not a wavelength?
ki77a [65]

The distance that is not a wavelength in the image is C to E.

<h3>What is wavelength?</h3>

Wavelength is the distance between two successive crests or two successive trough or crest to trough.

It is also the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.

Based on the image, the following are wavelengths;

  • A to E, this is wavelength because it is between a crest and a trough.
  • B to F, this is wavelength because it is between two successive crest.
  • D to H, this is wavelength because it is between two successive trough.

Thus, the distance that is not a wavelength in the image is C to E.

A peregrine falcon is the fastest animal in the world. When it dives, it can accelerate to
svp [43]

The speed of the falcon is 144 km/h

Explanation:

The speed of a body is a scalar quantity telling how fast the object is moving, without giving any information about its direction.

It can be calculated as:

speed = \frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time taken

In this problem, the falcon has a speed of

speed = 40 m/s

We want to convert it into km/h. Let's keep in mind that:

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 s

Therefore, we convert as follows:

speed = 40 \frac{m}{s} \cdot \frac{3600 s/h}{1000 m/k}=144 km/h

Answer:

R: 27 u

ou 27g/mol

Explanation:

A massa atômica de um elemento é dada pela soma do número atômico (número de protons) com o número de neutrons. Assim:

A= 13+14 = 27

Ab observer detects an apparent change in the frequency of sound waves produced by an airplane passing overhead. This phenomenon
ss7ja [257]
Hello There

Answer: The Doppler effect

Reason: The Doppler effect is an increase or decrease in the frequency of sound, light,  or waves as the source and observer move to each other. An example would be a firetruck with its siren on driving away from you.

I hope this helps
