Answer:

C. 590 mph

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph$

Explanation:

Given:

velocity of jet, $v_j=500\ mph$
direction of velocity of jet, east relative to the ground
velocity of Cessna, $v_c=150\ mph$
direction of velocity of Cessna, 60° north of west

Taking the x-axis alignment towards east and hence we have the velocity vector of the jet as reference.

Refer the attached schematic.

So,

$\vec v_j=500\ \hat i\ mph$

&

$\vec v_c=150\times (\cos120\ \hat i+\sin120\ \hat j)$

$\vec v_c=-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph$

Now the vector of relative velocity of Cessna with respect to jet:

$\vec v_{cj}=\vec v_j-\vec v_c$

$\vec v_{cj}=500\ \hat i-(-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j )$

$\vec v_{cj}=575\ \hat i-75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph$

Now the magnitude of this velocity:

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=\sqrt{(575)^2+(75\sqrt{3} )^2}$

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph$ is the relative velocity of Cessna with respect to the jet.

A string of length L is under tension, and the speed of a wave in the string is v. What will be the speed of a wave in the strin

lawyer [7]

Answer:

The speed increases by square root 2 times.

Explanation:

Let the wave velocity initially be 'v' with tension in the string as 'T' of mass 'm'.

Given:

Initial length of the string (L₁) = L

Final length of the string (L₂) = 2L

Wave velocity in a stretched string of length 'L' is given as:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{LT}{m}}$

From the above equation we can conclude that if tension 'T' and mass 'm' remains the same, the wave velocity is directly proportional to the square root of length of the stretched string. Therefore,

$v=k\sqrt L\\\\\frac{v_1}{\sqrt{L_1}}=\frac{v_2}{\sqrt{L_2}}$

Now, plug in the given values and solve for v₂ in terms of v₁. This gives,

$v_2=\frac{v}{\sqrt{L}}\times \sqrt{2L}\\\\v_2=\sqrt2 v$

Therefore, the speed of the wave is increased by square root 2 times.

A coil is wrapped with 300 turns of wire on the perimeter of a circular frame (radius = 8.0 cm). Each turn has the same area, eq

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Approximately 18 volts when the magnetic field strength increases from $\rm 20\; mT$ to $\rm 80\;mT$ at a constant rate.

Explanation:

By the Faraday's Law of Induction, the EMF $\epsilon$ that a changing magnetic flux induces in a coil is:

$\displaystyle \epsilon = N \cdot \frac{d\phi}{dt}$ ,

where

$N$ is the number of turns in the coil, and
$\displaystyle \frac{d\phi}{dt}$ is the rate of change in magnetic flux through this coil.

However, for a coil the magnetic flux $\phi$ is equal to

$\phi = B \cdot A\cdot \cos{\theta}$ ,

where

$B$ is the magnetic field strength at the coil, and
$A\cdot \cos{\theta}$ is the area of the coil perpendicular to the magnetic field.

For this coil, the magnetic field is perpendicular to coil, so $\theta = 0$ and $A\cdot \cos{\theta} = A$ . The area of this circular coil is equal to $\pi\cdot r^{2} = \pi\times 8.0\times 10^{-2}\approx \rm 0.0201062\; m^{2}$ .

$A\cdot \cos{\theta} = A$ doesn't change, so the rate of change in the magnetic flux $\phi$ through the coil depends only on the rate of change in the magnetic field strength $B$ . The size of the magnetic field at the instant that $B = \rm 50\; mT$ will not matter as long as the rate of change in $B$ is constant.

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \frac{d\phi}{dt} &= \frac{\Delta B}{\Delta t}\times A \\&= \rm \frac{80\times 10^{-3}\; T- 20\times 10^{-3}\; T}{20\times 10^{-3}\; s}\times 0.0201062\;m^{2}\\&= \rm 0.0603186\; T\cdot m^{2}\cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

As a result,

$\displaystyle \epsilon = N \cdot \frac{d\phi}{dt} = \rm 300 \times 0.0603186\; T\cdot m^{2}\cdot s^{-1} \approx 18\; V$ .

A 235 kg object and a 1.37×1012 kg are located 2.59×104 m away from each other. What is the force due to gravity between the two

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

F = 3.2 x 10⁻⁵ N

Explanation:

The gravitational force of attraction between the two objects is given by Newton's Gravitational law through the following formula:

$F = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}$

where,

F = gravitational force = ?

G = Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

m₁ = mass of object 1 = 235 kg

m₂ = mass of object 2 = 1.37 x 10¹² kg

r = distance between objects = 2.59 x 10⁴ m

Therefore,

$F = \frac{(6.67\ x\ 10^{-11}\ Nm^{2}/kg^{2})(235\ kg)(1.37\ x\ 10^{12}\ kg)}{(2.59\ x\ 10^{4}\ m)^{2}}$

<u>F = 3.2 x 10⁻⁵ N</u>
