A coiled telephone cord forms a spiral with 90.0 turns, a diameter of 1.30 cm, and an unstretched length of 57.0 cm. Determine t

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

2.36 μ H

Explanation:

Given,

Number of turns= 90

diameter = 1.3 cm = 0.013 m

unscratched length = 57 cm = 0.57 m

Area, A = π r²

= π x 0.0065² = 1.32 x 10⁻⁴ m²

we know,

$L = \dfrac{\mu_0N^2A}{l}$

$L = \dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 90^2\times 1.32\times 10^{-4}}{0.57}$

L = 2.36 μ H

Hence, the inductance of the unstretched cord is equal to 2.36 μ H

A 5cm tall object is placed 4cm in front of a converging lens that has a focal length of 8cm. Where is the image located in ____

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

a. -8 cm

Explanation:

$d_{o}$ = distance of the object = 4 cm

$d_{i}$ = distance of the image = ?

$f$ = focal length of the converging lens = 8 cm

using the lens equation

$\frac{1}{d_{o}} + \frac{1}{d_{i}} = \frac{1}{f}$

$\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{d_{i}} = \frac{1}{8}$

$d_{i}$ = - 8 cm
