A certain superconducting magnet in the form of a solenoid of length 0.300 m can generate a magnetic field of 8.90 T in its core
Ivan

Answer:

The number of turns in the solenoid is 22366.

Explanation:

The number of turns in the solenoid can be found using the following equation:

B = \mu_{0} I\frac{N}{L}

Where:

B: is the magnetic field = 8.90 T

L: is the solenoid's length = 0.300 m

N: is the number of turns =?

I: is the current = 95 A

μ₀: is the magnetic constant = 4π×10⁻⁷ H/m

By solving equation (1) for N we have:

N = \frac{BL}{\mu_{0} I} = \frac{8.90 T*0.300 m}{4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} H/m*95 A} = 22366 turns

Therefore, the number of turns in the solenoid is 22366.

I hope it helps you!

With 51 gallons of fuel in its tank, the airplane has a weight of 2390.7 pounds. What is the weight of the plane with 81 gallons
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: 2561.7 pounds

Explanation:

If we assume the total weight of an airplane (in pounds units) as a <u>linear function</u> of the amount of fuel in its tank (in gallons) and we make a Weight vs amount of fuel graph, which resulting slope is 5.7, we can use the slope equation of the line:

m=\frac{Y-Y_{1}}{X-X_{1}}  (1)

Where:

m=5.7 is the slope of the line

Y_{1}=2390.7pounds is the airplane weight with  51 gallons of fuel in its tank (assuming we chose the Y axis for the airplane weight in the graph)

X_{1}=51gallons is the fuel in airplane's tank for a total weigth of 2390.7 pounds (assuming we chose the X axis for the a,ount of fuel in the tank in the graph)

This means we already have one point of the graph, which coordinate is:

(X_{1},Y_{1})=(51,2390.7)

Rewritting (1):

Y=m(X-X_{1})+Y_{1}  (2)

As Y is a function of X:

Y=f_{(X)}=m(X-X_{1})+Y_{1}  (3)

Substituting the known values:

f_{(X)}=5.7(X-51)+2390.7  (4)

f_{(X)}=5.7X-290.7+2390.7  (5)

f_{(X)}=5.7X+2100  (6)

Now, evaluating this function when X=81 (talking about the 81 gallons of fuel in the tank):

f_{(81)}=5.7(81)+2100  (7)

f_{(81)}=2561.7  (8)   This means the weight of the plane when it has 81 gallons of fuel in its tank is 2561.7 pounds.

A student weighing 160 pounds hangs for dear life from a cable tied to two other cables fastened to a support as shown above. Th
german
The intention is to determine whether the cables will resist the tension or will break.

There are three tensions

Applyng Newton's Second Law to the student, the tension of the only cable that holds the student has to equal his weight,

T = weight = m*g = 160 lbs / 2.2046 lbs/kg * 9.8 m/s=711 N

Now apply Newton's Second Law to the joint of the cables

There you have that the equilibrium of forces leads to that the sum of the up-components of the other two cables = the tension T just found, i.e. 711 N.

Now find the up-components of the tensions of other two cables:

sin 39 = T_1up / T_1 => T_1up = T_1*sin(39)

sin 55 = T_2up / Ts => T_2up = T_2*sin(55)

Total up tension = T_1*sin(39) + T_2*sin(55)

Newton's second law => total up tension = tension of the cable that holds the student

T_1*sin (39) + T_2*sin(55) = 711 N  [equation 1]


Now find the equation from the horizontal equilibrium.

Horizontal-components fo the tension of the other two cables

cos 39 = T_1 left / T_1 => T_1 left = T_1*cos(39)

cos 55 = T_2 right / T_2=> T_2 right = T_2*cos(55)

Second Newton's Law and non movement => left-component = right component.

T_1 * cos(39) = T_2 cos(55)    [equation 2]

Equation 1 and equation 2 form a systems of two equations with two variables (T_1 and T_2).

When you solve it you find:

T1 = 711 / [sin(39) + tan(55)*cos(39)] = 711 / 1.739 = 408.9 N

T_2 = cos (39)*408.9 / cos (55) = 553. 9 N

Therefore this cable will break because the tension calculated exceeds 500 N.
