Answer: 3.26 light years

Explanation:

Each star has a parallax of one arcsecond at a distance of one parsec, which is equivalent to 3.26 light years.

so the parallax of 1 arcsecond will be at a distance of <em>1/1 × 3.26 light years</em>

A circular coil that has 100 turns and a radius of 10.0 cm lies in a magnetic field that has a magnitude of 0.0650 T directed pe
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

(a) 0.204 Weber

(b) 0.22 Volt

Explanation:

N = 100, radius, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m, B = 0.0650 T, angle is 90 degree with the plane of coil, so theta = 0 degree with the normal of coil.

(a) Magnetic flux, Ф = N x B x A

Ф = 100 x 0.0650 x 3.14 x 0.1 0.1

Ф = 0.204 Weber

(b) B1 = 0.0650 T, B2 = 0.1 T, dt = 0.5 s

dB / dt = (B2 - B1) / dt = (0.1 - 0.0650) / 0.5 = 0.07 T / s

induced emf, e = N dФ/dt

e = N x A x dB/dt

e = 100 x 3.14 x 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.07 = 0.22 V

A 190 g glider on a horizontal, frictionless air track is attached to a fixed ideal spring with force constant 160 N/m. At the i
laiz [17]

(a) Let <em>x</em> be the maximum elongation of the spring. At this point, the glider would have zero velocity and thus zero kinetic energy. The total work <em>W</em> done by the spring on the glider to get it from the given point (4.00 cm from equilibrium) to <em>x</em> is

<em>W</em> = - (1/2 <em>kx</em> ² - 1/2 <em>k</em> (0.0400 m)²)

(note that <em>x</em> > 4.00 cm, and the restoring force of the spring opposes its elongation, so the total work is negative)

By the work-energy theorem, the total work is equal to the change in the glider's kinetic energy as it moves from 4.00 cm from equilibrium to <em>x</em>, so

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em> = 0 - 1/2 <em>m</em> (0.835 m/s)²

Solve for <em>x</em> :

- (1/2 (160 N/m) <em>x</em> ² - 1/2 (160 N/m) (0.0400 m)²) = -1/2 (0.190 kg) (0.835 m/s)²

==>   <em>x</em> ≈ 0.0493 m ≈ 4.93 cm

(b) The glider attains its maximum speed at the equilibrium point. The work done by the spring as it is stretched away from equilibrium to the 4.00 cm position is

<em>W</em> = - 1/2 <em>k</em> (0.0400 m)²

If <em>v</em> is the glider's maximum speed, then by the work-energy theorem,

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em> = 1/2 <em>m</em> (0.835 m/s)² - 1/2 <em>mv</em> ²

Solve for <em>v</em> :

- 1/2 (160 N/m) (0.0400 m)² = 1/2 (0.190 kg) (0.835 m/s)² - 1/2 (0.190 kg) <em>v</em> ²

==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 1.43 m/s

(c) The angular frequency of the glider's oscillation is

√(<em>k</em>/<em>m</em>) = √((160 N/m) / (0.190 kg)) ≈ 29.0 Hz

Small paragraph explaining how how potential and kinetic energy are related
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is energy possessed by a body by virtue of its movement. Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or state. While kinetic energy of an object is relative to the state of other objects in its environment, potential energy is completely independent of its environment.

Match each action to its result. The strength of the electromagnet increases. The electromagnet turns off. The poles of the elec
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

1) The strength of the electromagnet increases   →   Place a magnetic core inside the coil of wire

2) The electromagnet turns off    →    Turn off the battery supply

3) The poles of the electromagnet reverse     →    Change the direction in which the current flows

Explanation:

when current passes through a coil it behaves a an electromagnet.

Magnetic field strength is given by

B = μ N I  

N is no of turns and

I is the current through coil

μ is permeability of the medium or core in the coil.

1). Magnetic core increase permeability μ so it will strengthen magnetic field:

B = <u>μ</u> N I

2). When the battery turns off current becomes zeroi.e I=0

So B = μ N * 0

⇒ B = 0

so electromagnet turns off

3). Direction of magnetic field can be determine by right hand rule, i.e curl the fingers in the direction of current, thumb will point in the direction of north pole.

so changing current direction will change direction of magnetic field.
