The resistance of the cylindrical wire is R=\frac{\rho l}{A}.

Here R is the resistance, l is the length of the wire and A is the area of cross section. Since the wire is cylindrical A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4} . Rearranging the above equation,

A=\frac{\rho l}{R}\\  \frac{\pi d^2}{4}=\frac{\rho l}{R}\\  l=\frac{\pi d^2 R}{4 \rho}

Here d=0.15, R=15, \rho=1.68(10^{-8}).

Substituting numerical values,

l=\frac{\pi 0.15^2(10^{-6}) (15)}{4 (1.68)(10^{-8})}  \\ l=15.78

The length of the wire is 15.78 \;\;m

A loop of wire is in a magnetic field such that its axis is parallel with the field direction. Which of the following would resu
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

All the given options will result in an induced emf in the loop.

Explanation:

The induced emf in a conductor is directly proportional to the rate of change of flux.

emf = -\frac{d \phi}{dt} \\\\where;\\\\\phi \ is \ magnetic \ flux\\\\\phi = BA\ cos \theta

where;

A is the area of the loop

B is the strength of the magnetic field

θ is the angle between the loop and the magnetic field

<em>Considering option </em><em>A</em>, moving the loop outside the magnetic field will change the strength of the magnetic field and consequently result in an induced emf.

<em>Considering option </em><em>B</em>, a change in diameter of the loop, will cause a change in the magnetic flux and in turn result in an induced emf.

Option C has a similar effect with option A, thus both will result in an induced emf.

Finally, <em>considering option</em> D, spinning the loop such that its axis does not consistently line up with the magnetic field direction will<em> </em>change the angle<em> </em>between the loop and the magnetic field. This effect will also result in an induced emf.

Therefore, all the given options will result in an induced emf in the loop.

When a hammer thrower releases her ball, she is aiming to maximize the distance from the starting ring. Assume she releases the
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The angular velocity is 15.37 rad/s

Solution:

As per the question:

\theta = 54.6^{\circ}

Horizontal distance, x = 30.1 m

Distance of the ball from the rotation axis is its radius, R = 1.15 m

Now,

To calculate the angular velocity:

Linear velocity, v = \sqrt{\frac{gx}{sin2\theta}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8\times 30.1}{sin2\times 54.6}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8\times 30.1}{sin2\times 54.6}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{294.98}{sin109.2^{\circ}}} = 17.67\ m/s

Now,

The angular velocity can be calculated as:

v = \omega R

Thus

\omega = \frac{v}{R} = \frac{17.67}{1.15} = 15.37\ rad/s
