If you have ever used a compass, you know that it can be used to help navigate. It does this with a needle that always points no

rth, so you know which direction you are heading. Why does a compass needle point north?
A)Due to the direction of the earth's orbit.
B)Due to the influence of the earth's rotation.
C)Due to the influence of the earth's magnetic field.

A magnetic field of 37.2 t has been achieved at the mit francis bitter national magnetic laboratory. Find the current needed to
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Here is the complete question:

https://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/magnetic-field-372-t-achieved-mit-francis-bitter-national-magnetic-laboratory-find-current-q900632

a) Current for long straight wire  =3.7\ MA

b) Current at the center of the circular coil =2.48\times 10^{5}\ A

c) Current near the center of a solenoid 236.8\ A

Explanation:

⇒ Magnetic Field due to long straight wire is given by (B),where B=\frac{\mu\times I}{2\pi(r) },so\ I=\frac{B\ 2\pi(r)}{\mu}

\mu=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ \frac{henry}{m}

Plugging the values,

Conversion 1\times 10^6 A = 1\ MA,and 2cm=\frac{2}{100}=0.02\ m

I=\frac{37.2\times \ 2\pi(0.02)}{4\ \pi \times (10^{-7})}=3.7\ MA

⇒Magnetic Field at the center due to circular coil (at center) is given by,B=\frac{\mu\times I (N)}{2(a)}

So I= \frac{2B(a)}{\mu\ N} = \frac{2\times 37.2\times 0.42}{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 100}=2.48\time 10{^5}\ A

⇒Magnetic field due to the long solenoid,B=\mu\ nI=\mu (\frac{N}{l})I

Then I=\frac{B}{\mu(\frac{N}{L})} \approx 236.8\A  

So the value of current are  3.7 MA,2.48\times 10^{5} A and 236.8\ A respectively.

Q 29.1 a sheet of copper is placed between the poles of an electromagnet with the magnetic field perpendicular to the sheet. whe
Karolina [17]

(a) The force required to remove the sheet increases with increase in speed due to change in magnetic flux.

(b) The area in the magnetic field changes as the sheet is being put in between the poles. Thus, a force would be required to put the sheets.

<h3>Change in magnetic flux </h3>

When the sheet is pulled out, from the electromagnet there is change in magnetic flux given as follows;

Ф = BA

where;

  • B is magnetic field
  • A is area

emf = dФ/dt

F = qVB

Thus, the force required to remove the sheet increases with increase in speed due to change in magnetic flux.

Also, the area in the magnetic field changes as the sheet is being put in between the poles. Thus, a force would be required to put the sheets.

Two girls stand 500m away from a tall wall
Mama L [17]

From the calculations, the speed of sound in this case is 16.9 m/s.

<h3>What is an echo?</h3>

The term echo has to do with the reflection of sound waves. Sound is a mechanical wave.

we know that the speed of sound is obtained from;

V = 2x/t

x = distance covered

t = time taken

V = 2(500)/59

v = 16.9 m/s

The error in the experiment could come from;

  • Lack of precise time measurement
  • Error can also arise from the environment of the experiment
