Answer:

Electric current produces a magnetic field. This magnetic field can be visualized as a pattern of circular field lines surrounding a wire. ... Magnetic Field Generated by Current: (a) Compasses placed near a long straight current-carrying wire indicate that field lines form circular loops centered on the wire.

An emf of 28.0 mV is induced in a 501 turn coil when the current is changing at a rate of 12.0 A/s. What is the magnetic flux th

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Φ = 5.589×10⁻⁵ Wb

Explanation:

The inductance of a coil is given as

L = e/(di/dt) ..................... Equation 1

Where L = inductance of the coil, e = induced e.m.f, di/dt = rate of change of current in the coil.

Also,

The inductance of each turn of the coil when a magnetic field is step up in the coil is

L = NΦ/i ................. Equation 2

Where N = number of turns, Φ = magnetic field, i = current.

equating equation 1 and equation 2

e/(di/dt) = NΦ/i

making Φ the subject of the equation,

Φ = (e×i)/N.(di/dt) .................. Equation 3

Given: e = 28.0 mV = 0.028 V, N = 501 turns, di/dt = 12.0 A/s, i = 4.00 a

Substitute into equation 3,

Φ = (0.028×4)/(12×501)

Φ = 0.112/2004

Φ = 5.589×10⁻⁵ Weber

Φ = 5.589×10⁻⁵ Wb

Two ropes have equal length and are stretched the same way. The speed of a pulse on rope 1 is 1.4 times the speed on rope 2. Par

Answer:

m1/m2 = 0.51

Explanation:

First to all, let's gather the data. We know that both rods, have the same length. Now, the expression to use here is the following:

V = √F/u

This is the equation that describes the relation between speed of a pulse and a force exerted on it.

the value of "u" is:

u = m/L

Where m is the mass of the rod, and L the length.

Now, for the rod 1:

V1 = √F/u1 (1)

rod 2:

V2 = √F/u2 (2)

Now, let's express V1 in function of V2, because we know that V1 is 1.4 times the speed of rod 2, so, V1 = 1.4V2. Replacing in the equation (1) we have:

1.4V2 = √F/u1 (3)

Replacing (2) in (3):

1.4(√F/u2) = √F/u1 (4)

Now, let's solve the equation 4:

[1.4(√F/u2)]² = F/u1

1.96(F/u2) =F/u1

1.96F = F*u2/u1

1.96 = u2/u1 (5)

Now, replacing the expression of u into (5) we have the following:

1.96 = m2/L / m1/L

1.96 = m2/m1 (6)

But we need m1/m2 so:

1.96m1 = m2

m1/m2 = 1/1.96

m1/m2 = 0.51

On another planet gravity has a value of 5.5 m/s . If an object is dropped how long will it take to fall 53 m?

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

4.4 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

a = -5.5 m/s²

v₀ = 0 m/s

y₀ = 53 m

y = 0 m

Find: t

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 = 53 + 0 + ½ (-5.5) t²

0 = 53 − 2.75 t²

t = 4.39

Rounded to two significant figures, it takes 4.4 seconds for the object to land.
