15/4 = 3.75 m/s2. Do not try this formula all the time. This is an exception

A 0.130 m radius, 485-turn coil is rotated one-fourth of a revolution in 4.17 ms, originally having its plane perpendicular to a

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The magnetic field strength needed is 1.619 T

Explanation:

Given;

Number of turns, N = 485-turn

Radius of coil, r = 0.130 m

time of revolution, t = 4.17 ms = 0.00417 s

average induced emf, V = 10,000 V.

Average induced emf is given as;

V = -ΔФ/Δt

where;

ΔФ is change in flux

Δt is change in time

ΔФ $= -NBA(Cos \theta_f - Cos \theta_i)$

where;

N is the number of turns

B is the magnetic field strength

A is the area of the coil = πr²

θ is the angle of inclination of the coil and the magnetic field,

$\theta_f = 90^o\\\theta_i = 0^o$

V = NBACos0/t

V = NBA/t

B = (Vt)/NA

B = (10,000 x 0.00417) / (485 x π x 0.13²)

B =1.619 T

Thus, the magnetic field strength needed is 1.619 T

Light of wavelength 608.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 88.5 cm from the slit.

Effectus [21]

Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.167 mm

Explanation:

Wavelength of light, $\lambda=608\ nm=608\times 10^{-9}\ m$

Distance from screen to slit, D = 88.5 cm = 0.885 m

The distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is 1.61 cm, y = 1.61 cm = 0.0161 m

We need to find the width of the slit. The formula for the distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is :

$y=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{a}$

where

a = width of the slit

$a=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{y}$

$a=\dfrac{5\times 0.885\ m\times 608\times 10^{-9}\ m}{0.0161\ m}$

a = 0.000167 m

$a=1.67\times 10^{-4}\ m$

a = 0.167 mm

So, the width of the slit is 0.167 mm. Hence, this is the required solution.

A wooden block is sitting on an inclined plane near the bottom. The student gave the block a flick and it moved up the inclined

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The block didn't slide due to balancing of gravitational force with friction force

Explanation:

When the block was given a flick the force provided an acceleration to it and it moved up the inclined plane. when the block reached top it was expected that it would slide back but it didn't this happened because of the frictional force acting on the bottom the block which was balancing the gravitational force component along the plane and this prevented sliding back of the block.

static friction was balancing mg*sin(theta)

fs = mg*sin(theta)

Which statement is the best example of pseudoscience?

Nady [450]

<span>pseudoscience includes beliefs theories, or practices that have been or are considered scientific, but have no basis in scientific fact.
This could mean the were disproved scientifically, can't be tested or lack evidence to support them.
Examples:Channeling- involves communicating with a spirit through a person

Astrology- beliefs that humans are affected by the position of celestial bodies
