How is the scientific meaning of acceleration different from how we use the term acceleration in everyday life?

Physics

raketka [301]3 years ago

Most people think that "acceleration" means "speeding up". 
(Maybe you use the word that way.  I don't.)
I think this comes from the gas pedal in the car being called
the "accelerator".

The real meaning of "acceleration" is: any change in motion ...
speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction even if speed
doesn't change.

Which process requires more energy: completely vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at 1 atm pressure or completely vaporiz
Lilit [14]
The correct answer would be the first option. The process that would need more energy would be vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at a pressure of 1 atmosphere. This can be seen from the latent heat of vaporization of each system. For the saturated water at 1 atm, the latent heat is equal to 40.7 kJ per mole while, at 8 atm, the latent heat is equal to 36.4 kJ per mole. The latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat needed in order to vaporize a specific amount of substance without any change in the temperature. As we can observe, more energy is needed by the liquid water at 1 atm.

A circular coil consists of N = 410 closely winded turns of wire and has a radius R = 0.75 m. A counterclockwise current I = 2.4
Svetllana [295]

The complete question is;

A circular coil consists of N = 410 closely winded turns of wire and has a radius R = 0.75 m. A counterclockwise current I = 2.4 A is in the coil. The coil is set in a magnetic field of magnitude B = 1.1 T.

a. Express the magnetic dipole moment μ in terms of the number of the turns N, the current I, and radius

R.

b. Which direction does μ go?

Answer:

A) μ = 1738.87 A.m²

B) The direction of the magnetic moment will be in upward direction.

Explanation:

We are given;

The number of circular coils;

N = 410

The radius of the coil;R = 0.75m

The current in the coils; I = 2.4 A

The strength of magnetic field;

B =1.1T

The formula for magnetic dipole moment is given as;

μ = NIA

Where;

N is number of turns

I is current

A is area

Now, area; A = πr²

So, A = π(0.75)²

Thus,plugging in relevant values, the magnetic dipole moment is;

μ = 410 * 2.4 * π(0.75)²

μ = 1738.87 A.m²

B) According to Fleming's right hand rule, the direction of the magnetic moment comes out to be in upward direction.
