Answer:
e) indicated that the speed of light is the same in all inertial reference frames.
Explanation:
In 18th century, many scientists believed that the light just like air and water needs a medium to travel. They called this medium <em>aether</em>. They believed that even the space is not empty and filled with aether.
Michelson and Morley tried to prove the presence and speed of this aether through an interference experiment in 1887. They made an interferometer in which light was emitted at various angles with respect to the supposed aether. Both along the flow and against the flow to see the difference in the speed of light. But they did not find no major difference and thus it became the first proof to disprove the theory of aether.
It thus proved that the speed of light remains same in all inertial frames.
Also, it became a base for the special theory of relativity by Einstein.
Answer:
The top of the block has an area of 0.25m².
i) a Calculate the pressure on the top face of the block.
ii) The atmospheric pressure is 1.0 × 10⁵ Pa.
Calculate the pressure on the top face of the block due to the depth h of water.
iii) The density of sea water is 1020kg/m³.
Calculate the depth h.
Answer:
<em>radius of the loop = 7.9 mm</em>
<em>number of turns N ≅ 399 turns</em>
Explanation:
length of wire L= 2 m
field strength B = 3 mT = 0.003 T
current I = 12 A
recall that field strength B = μnI
where n is the turn per unit length
vacuum permeability μ =
= 1.256 x 10^-6 T-m/A
imputing values, we have
0.003 = 1.256 x 10^−6 x n x 12
0.003 = 1.507 x 10^-5 x n
n = 199.07 turns per unit length
for a length of 2 m,
number of loop N = 2 x 199.07 = 398.14 ≅ <em>399 turns</em>
since there are approximately 399 turns formed by the 2 m length of wire, it means that each loop is formed by 2/399 = 0.005 m of the wire.
this length is also equal to the circumference of each loop
the circumference of each loop = 
0.005 = 2 x 3.142 x r
r = 0.005/6.284 =
= 0.0079 m =<em> 7.9 mm</em>
