Answer:

S = \dfrac{1}{2.5}

Explanation:

given,

side slope = 1 : 1

hydraulic depth(y) = 5 ft

bottom width (b)= 8 ft

x = 1

Q = 2,312 ft³/s

n = 0.013

slope of channel = ?

R = \dfrac{A}{P}

R = \dfrac{y(b + xy)}{b+2y\sqrt{1+x^2}}

R = \dfrac{5(8+ 5)}{8+2\times 5\sqrt{1+1^2}}

R = 4.69 m

using manning's equation

Q = \dfrac{1}{n}AR^{2/3} S^{1/2}

2312= \dfrac{1}{0.013}\times (5(8+5))\times 4.69^{2/3} S^{1/2}

2312=14009.37\times S^{1/2}

S = 0.406

S = \dfrac{1}{2.5}

The charges are in a uniform electric field whose direction makes an angle 36.8 ∘ with the line connecting the charges. What is
astraxan [27]

Complete question:

Point charges q1=- 4.10nC and q2=+ 4.10nC are separated by a distance of 3.60mm , forming an electric dipole. The charges are in a uniform electric field whose direction makes an angle 36.8 ∘ with the line connecting the charges. What is the magnitude of this field if the torque exerted on the dipole has magnitude 7.30×10−9 N⋅m ? Express your answer in newtons per coulomb to three significant figures.

Answer:

The magnitude of this field is 826 N/C

Explanation:

Given;

The torque exerted on the dipole, T = 7.3 x 10⁻⁹ N.m

PEsinθ = T

where;

E is the magnitude of the electric field

P is the dipole moment

First, we determine the magnitude dipole moment;

Magnitude of dipole moment = q*r

P = 4.1 x 10⁻⁹ x 3.6 x 10⁻³ = 1.476 x 10⁻¹¹ C.m

Finally, we determine the magnitude of this field;

E = \frac{T}{P*sin(\theta)}=  \frac{7.3 X 10^{-9}}{1.476X10^{-11}*sin(36.8)}\\\\E = 825.6 N/C

E = 826 N/C (in three significant figures)

Therefore, the magnitude of this field is 826 N/C

Draw/Label a motor OR give directions in words on how to build a motor.
Nina [5.8K]

you take a length of ordinary wire, make it into a big loop, and lay it between the poles of a powerful, permanent horseshoe magnet. Now if you connect the two ends of the wire to a battery, the wire will jump up briefly.When an electric current starts to creep along a wire, it creates a magnetic field all around it. If you place the wire near a permanent magnet, this temporary magnetic field interacts with the permanent magnet's field.

A bar magnet is dropped toward a conducting ring lying on the floor. As the magnet falls toward the ring, does it move as a free
REY [17]

Explanation:

According to the Faraday-Lenz law, a conductive ring generates an induced current due to the change in the magnetic flux caused by the motion of the bar magnet. This induced current generates a magnetic field opposite to the magnetic field of the bar, generating an upward force that opposes the weight of the bar magnet, Therefore, it does not move as a freely  falling object.
