When a light beam reflects from a plane mirror, the angle of incidence is measured as the angle between the perpendicular to the surface of the mirror (normal line)  and the incident ray (light beam) that hits the mirror.

Assume that the loop is initially positioned at θ=30∘θ=30∘ and the current flowing into the loop is 0.500 AA . If the magnitude
labwork [276]

Answer:\tau=1.03\times 10^{-4}\ N-m

Torque,

Explanation:

Given that,

The loop is positioned at an angle of 30 degrees.

Current in the loop, I = 0.5 A

The magnitude of the magnetic field is 0.300 T, B = 0.3 T

We need to find the net torque about the vertical axis of the current loop due to the interaction of the current with the magnetic field. We know that the torque is given by :

\tau=NIAB\ \sin\theta

Let us assume that, A=0.0008\ m^2

\theta is the angle between normal and the magnetic field, \theta=90^{\circ}-30^{\circ}=60^{\circ}

Torque is given by :

\tau=1\times 0.5\ A\times 0.0008\ m^2\times 0.3\ T\ \sin(60)\\\\\tau=1.03\times 10^{-4}\ N-m

So, the net torque about the vertical axis is 1.03\times 10^{-4}\ N-m. Hence, this is the required solution.

Water waves in a small tank are 6.6 m long. They travel at a speed of 2.9 m/s. What is the frequency of the water
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

.439 Hz

Explanation:

Wavelength = 6.6 m

speed = 2.9 m/s

  2.9 = 6.6 f

f = 2.9/6.6 =  .439 Hz
