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

Issac newton how did he shape the new worldview?
gulaghasi [49]

Accordingly Newton's findings, astronomy and physics have industrialized hugely over the period.  Scientists now recognize that every object in the world has a force that draws each other and the power of the force hinge on the mass of the object.  Also, Newton's Laws of Motion offer individuals a better understanding of what is likely concerning movement.  This is very helpful, particularly in  mechanics and space travel.  Generally, Newton had a huge and permanent impact on science.

I do not understand the full question, however if you are wondering which way Simone and the dog will go, they will go right because the force of 34 N from the dog is higher than the force of 16 N from Simone.

Earth's gravity attempts to change the velocity of all objects on Earth's surface toward _____ at a rate of 9.8 meters per secon
umka21 [38]

The answer is to the ground.


Gravity refers to the force that holds together the universe. On Earth, the gravity attempts to change the velocity of all the objects on the Earth's surface toward the ground at a rate of 9.8 meters per second squared according to Galileo.

A cannon is fired horizontally at 243 m/s off of a 62 meter tall, shear vertical cliff. How far in meters from the base of the c
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

865.08 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

62 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 62/4.9

Take the square root of both side.

t = √(62/4.9)

t = 3.56 s

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Time (t) = 3.56 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 243 × 3.56 s

s = 865.08 m

Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.
