A 30 g horizontal metal bar, 13 cm long, is free to slide up and down between two tall, vertical metal rods that are 13 cm apart

. A 5.5×10^−2 T magnetic field is directed perpendicular to the plane of the rods. The bar is raised to near the top of the rods, and a 1.2 Ω resistor is connected across the two rods at the top. Then the bar is dropped. What is the terminal speed at which the bar falls? Assume the bar remains horizontal and in contact with the rods at all times.
Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer:

Terminal speed, v = 6901.07 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the horizontal bar, m = 30 g = 0.03 kg

Length of the bar, l = 13 cm = 0.13 m

Magnetic field, B=5.5\times 10^{-2}\ T

Resistance, R = 1.2 ohms

We need to find the terminal speed oat which the bar falls. When terminal speed is reached,  

Force of gravity = magnetic force

mg=ilB..................(1)

i is the current flowing

l is the length of the rod

Due to the motion in rods, an emf is induced in the coil which is given by :

E=Blv, v is the speed of the bar

iR=Blv

i=\dfrac{Blv}{R}

Equation (1) becomes,

mg=\dfrac{B^2l^2v}{R}

v=\dfrac{mgR}{B^2l^2}

v=\dfrac{0.03\times 9.8\times 1.2}{(5.5\times 10^{-2})^2(0.13)^2}

v = 6901.07 m/s

So, the terminal speed at which the bar falls is 6901.07 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Explanation:

The fish falls from vertical rest in a time of

t = √(2h/g) = √(2(2.27)/9.81) = 0.68 s

v = d/t = 5.6 / 0.68 = 8.2 m/s

True or False. The pressure inside a piston is the same in all directions.
Dominik [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pascal's law says that pressure applied to an enclosed fluid will be transmitted without a change in magnitude to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container. The pressure at any point in the fluid is equal in all directions.
