A piece of copper wire with thin insulation, 200 m long and 1.00 mm in diameter, is wound onto a plastic tube to form a long sol
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

 N= 3

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Faraday's law

          E = - dФ / dt

         Ф = B . A = B Acos θ

tje bold indicate vectors. As it indicates that the variation of the field is linear, we can approximate the derivatives

         E = - A cos θ (B - B₀) / t

The angle enters the magnetic field and the normal to the area is zero

         cos 0 = 1

         A = π r²

   

In the length of the wire there are N turns each with a length L₀ = 2π r

          L = N (2π r)

          r = L / 2π N

    we substitute

          A = L² / (4π N²)

The magnetic field produced by a solenoid is

           B = μ₀ N/L   I

for which

            B₀ = μ₀  N/L   I

           

The final field is zero, because the current is zero

            B = 0

We substitute

           E = - (L² / 4π N²)  (0 - μ₀ N/L I) / t

           E = μ₀ L I / (4π N t)

           N = μ₀ L I / (4π t E)

The electromotive force is E = 0.80 mV = 0.8 10⁻³ V

let's calculate

           N = 4π 10⁻⁷ 200 1.60 / (4π 0.120 0.8 10⁻³)]

           N  = 320 10⁻⁷ / 9.6 10⁻⁶

           N = 33.3 10⁻¹

          N= 3

A box of mass m = 1.80 kg is dropped from rest onto a massless, vertical spring with spring constant k = 2.00 ✕ 102 N/m that is
Rudik [331]

Answer:

spring compressed is 0.724 m

Explanation:

given data

mass = 1.80 kg

spring constant k = 2 × 10²  N/m

initial height = 2.25 m

solution

we know from conservation of energy is

mg(h+x)  = 0.5 × k × x²       ...................1

here x is compression in spring

so put here value in equation 1 we get

1.8 × 9.8 × (2.25+x)  = 0.5 × 2× 10² × x²

solve it we get

x = 0.724344

so spring compressed is 0.724 m
