Answer:

C. 0.25J

Explanation:

Energy stored in the magnetic field of the inductor is expressed as E = 1/2LI² where;

L is the inductance

I is the current flowing in the inductor

Given parameters

L = 20mH = 20×10^-3H

I = 5A

Required

Energy stored in the magnetic field.

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 5²

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25

E = 10×10^-3 × 25

E = 0.01 × 25

E = 0.25Joules.

Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules

A cannon fires a shell straight upward; 1.8 s after it is launched, the shell is moving upward with a speed of 17 m/s. Assuming

goblinko [34]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of acceleration according to the laws of kinetics. Acceleration can be defined as the change in velocity per unit time, that is,

$a = \frac{v-u}{t}$

Here,

v = Final velocity

u = Initial velocity

t = Time

Rearranging to find the initial velocity,

$u = v-at$

Now the acceleration is equal to the gravity, then,

$u = v+gt$

$u = 17+(9.8)(1.8)$

$u = 34.64m/s$

The velocity of the shell at 5.5s after the launch is,

$v = u+at$

$v = u-gt$

$v = 34.64-(9.8)(5.5)$

$v = -19.26m/s$

Therefore the magnitude of the velocity of the shell at 5.5s is -19.26m/s

A uniform electric field, with a magnitude of 370 N/C, is directed parallel to the positive x-axis. If the electric potential at

dem82 [27]

Answer:

$\Delta U = 0.2072 J$

Explanation:

Potential difference between two points in constant electric field is given by the formula

$\Delta V = E.\Delta x$

here we know that

$E = 370 N/C$

also we know that

$\Delta x = 2.1 - 1.9 = 0.2 m$

now we have

$\Delta V = 370 (0.2) = 74 V$

now change in potential energy is given as

$\Delta U = Q\Delta V$

$\Delta U = (2.80 \times 10^{-3})(74)$

$\Delta U = 0.2072 J$

How do I figure out the GPE of an object on the ground? question 28.

Leona [35]

In this scenario, only conservative force is acting on the ice-cream hence energy is conserved.
Now, you know that ice-cream was held at a height of 1.75 m from ground. Taking ground( h= 0 meters) as reference,

Total energy of ice-cream before it fell = Total energy after it reached the ground.

Once ice-cream falls, all its GPE is converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy will be maximum just before it hits the ground. And since ice-cream is inelastic substance, it will come to at rest. That is, its GPE will be zero on the ground
