If a copper tube has current flowing to the right in the presence of a magnetic field going forward ("into the board"), we expec

t the weight on the scale to be lighter than with no current flowing.

Answer:

False, because current flow has no effect in the weight of a conductor.

Explanation:

Current flow has no effect in the weight of a conductor. Thus, the weight on the scale will be the same when current is flowing and when current is not flowing in the copper tube.

Therefore, If a copper tube has current flowing to the right in the presence of a magnetic field going forward ("into the board"), we expect the weight on the scale to be the same whether current is flowing or not.

A weight suspended from a spring is seen to bob up and down over a distance of 20 cm triply each second. What is the period? Wha
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

1) Hence, the period is 0.33 s.

2) The amplitude is 10 cm.

Explanation:

1) The period is given by:

T = \frac{1}{f}

Where:

f: is the frequency = 3 bob up and down each second = 3 s⁻¹ = 3 Hz

T = \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{3 Hz} = 0.33 s

Hence, the period is 0.33 s.

2) The amplitude is the distance between the equilibrium position and the maximum position traveled by the spring. Since the spring is moving up and down over a distance of 20 cm, then the amplitude is:          

A = \frac{20 cm}{2} = 10 cm  

Therefore, the amplitude is 10 cm.          

I hope it helps you!

Think about the way optical fibers are designed. why are the ends of the fibers glowing very brightly while the sides of the fib
Effectus [21]

Answer:

D. because the light is reflected back into the fiber along its sides

Explanation:

The fiber is constructed in a way that the light is bent/reflected/refracted toward the center core of glass. So, from the center core, there is a layer above it that has a different propagation than the core, and above that the same thing. To give you a real world visual example, if you look down in a pool of water, then stick a straight stick into it, you see that the straight stick appears to bend. That is what is happening to the light as it travels through a different medium (air to water). This same effect is incorporated in the fiber optic cable construction.

A negatively charged particle is moving to the right, directly above a wire have a current flowing to the right. In which direct
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

C) upward

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the right-hand rule.

First of all, we notice at the location of the negatively charged particle (above the wire), the magnetic field produced by the wire points out of the page (because the current is to the right, so by using the right hand, putting the thumb to the right (as the current) and wrapping the other fingers around it, we see that the direction of the field above the wire is out of the page).

Now we can apply the right hand rule to the charged particle:

- index finger: velocity of the particle, to the right

- middle finger: direction of the magnetic field, out of the page

- thumb: direction of the force, downward --> however, the charge is negative, so we must reverse the direction --> upward

Therefore, the direction of  the magnetic force is upward.
