What exactly is meant by a "freely falling" object? (i.e. what is the definition of free fall?)?

Free fall is when an object is moving down with only the force of gravity.

In si units, the electric field in an electromagnetic wave is described by ey = 104 sin(1.40 107x − ωt). (a) find the amplitude

melamori03 [73]

Answers:
(a) $B_o = 0.3466$ μT
(b) $\lambda = 0.4488$ μm
(c) f = $6.68 * 10^{14}Hz$

Explanation:
Given electric field(in y direction) equation:
$E_y = 104sin(1.40 * 10^7 x -\omega t)$

(a) The amplitude of electric field is $E_o = 104$ . Hence

The amplitude of magnetic field oscillations is $B_o = \frac{E_o}{c}$
Where c = speed of light

Therefore,
$B_o = \frac{104}{3*10^8} = 0.3466$ μT (Where T is in seconds--signifies the oscillations)

(b) To find the wavelength use:
$\frac{2 \pi }{\lambda} = 1.40 * 10^7$
$\lambda = \frac{2 \pi}{1.40} * 10^{-7}$
$\lambda = 0.4488$ μm

(c) Since c = fλ
=> f = c/λ

Now plug-in the values
f = (3*10^8)/(0.4488*10^-6)
f = $6.68 * 10^{14}Hz$

Answer:

The workdone is $W = -177.275J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial Volume is $Vi = 0.160 L$

The final volume is $V_f = 0.510L$

The external pressure is $P = 5.00 \ atm$

Generally the change in volume is

$\Delta V = V_f - V_i$

Substituting values we have

$\Delta V = 0.510 -0.160$

$= 0.350L$

Generally workdone is mathematically represented as

$W = -P \Delta V$

W is negative because the working is done on the environment by the system which is indicated by volume increase

Substituting values

$W = - 5* 0.350$

$= -1.75 \ L \ \cdot atm$

Now $1 \ L \cdot atm = 101.3J$

Therefore $W = -1.75* 101.3$

$= -177.275J$

The core of a 400 Hz aircraft transformer has a net cross-sectional area of 13 cm2. The maximum flux density is 0.9 T, and there

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

32.76 Volt

Explanation:

frequency, f = 400 Hz

Area of crossection, A = 13 cm²

Maximum flux density, B = 0.9 tesla

Number of turns in secondary coil, N = 70

Let the maximum induced voltage is e.

According to the Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, the induced emf is equal to the rate of change of magnetic flux.

e = dФ/dt

$e=\frac{NBA}{t}$

Time is defined as the reciprocal of frequency.

So, e = N B A f

e = 70 x 0.9 x 13 x 10^-4 x 400

e = 32.76 volt
