What is the peak emf generated by rotating a 940-turn, 24 cm diameter coil in the Earth’s 5·10−5 T magnetic field, given th
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The peak emf generated by the coil is 2.67 V

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns, N = 940 turns

diameter, d = 24 cm = 0.24 m

magnetic field, B = 5 x 10⁻⁵ T

time, t = 5 ms = 5 x 10⁻³ s

peak emf, V₀ = ?

V₀ = NABω

Where;

N is the number of turns

A is the area

B is the magnetic field strength

ω is the angular velocity

V₀ = NABω and ω = 2πf = 2π/t

V₀ = NAB2π/t

A = πd²/4

V₀ = N x (πd²/4) x B x (2π/t)

V₀ = 940 x (π x 0.24²/4) x 5 x 10⁻⁵ x (2π/0.005)

V₀ = 940 x 0.04524 x  5 x 10⁻⁵ x 1256.8

V₀ = 2.6723 V = 2.67 V

The peak emf generated by the coil is 2.67 V

What is the wavelength of a wave if its frequency is 256 Hz and speed of the wave is 350 m/s?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation for this is

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} where f is the frequency, v is the velocity, and lambda is the wavelength. Filling in:

256=\frac{350}{\lambda} and

\lambda=\frac{350}{256} which means that

the wavelength is 1.37 m, rounded to the correct number of significant digits.

The sound produced by the loudspeaker in the drawing has a frequency of 11999 Hz and arrives at the microphone via two different
const2013 [10]

The speed at which sound travels through the gas in the tube is 719.94m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Frequency, f = 11999Hz

Wavelength, λ = 0.03m

Velocity, v = ?

Sound speed in the tube is calculated by multiplying the frequency v by the wavelength λ.

As the sound loudness changed from a maximum to a minimum, then we know the sound interference in the case changed from constructive interference (the two sound waves are in phase, i.e. peaks are in a line with peaks and so the troughs), to a destructive interference (peaks coinciding with troughs). The least distance change required to cause such a change is a half wavelength distance, so:

λ/2 = 0.03/2

 λ  = 0.06m

We know,

v = λf

v = 0.06 X 11999Hz

v = 719.94m/s

Therefore, the speed at which sound travels through the gas in the tube is 719.94m/s

Use a common denominator to find-2/3 + -4/5​
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

-22/15

Explanation:

the least common denominator is  15 so first you multiply -2/3 by 5 in both the numerator and denominator making it -10/15

Then you do the same to -4/5 except you multiply the numerator and denominator by 3 giving you -12/15

If you add -10/15+ -12/15 you get -22/15
