Answer and Explanation:

This experiment is known as Lenz's tube.

The Lenz tube is an experiment that shows how you can brake a magnetic dipole that goes down a tube that conducts electric current. The magnet, when falling, along with its magnetic field, will generate variations in the magnetic field flux within the tube. These variations create an emf induced according to Faraday's Law:

\varepsilon =-\frac{d\phi_B}{dt}

This emf induced on the surface of the tube generates a current within it according to Ohm's Law:

V=IR

This emf and current oppose the flux change, therefore a field will be produced in such a direction that the magnet is repelled from below and is attracted from above. The magnitude of the flux at the bottom of the magnet increases from the point of view of the tube, and at the top it decreases. Therefore, two "magnets" are generated under and above the dipole, which repel it below and attract above. Finally, the dipole feels a force in the opposite direction to the direction of fall, therefore it falls with less speed.

Answer:

Check below for the answer and explanation

Explanation:

According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, if a conductor is exposed to changing magnetic flux, an emf and hence a current is induced in the conductor. The strength of the induced emf is directly proportional to the rate of change of the magnetic flux.

Induced emf, e =-N\frac{d \phi}{dt}

Induced current, I = e/R

In this example, as magnet is dropped down the aluminium pipe, the magnetic flux changes, and current is induced in the pipe.

According to Lenz's law, the direction of the induced current in the conductor opposes the direction of the magnetic flux that produces it.

Based on these stated laws, current is induced in this aluminium pipe and the direction of this induced current opposes the magnetic flux change. The magnetic field is repelled and falls slowly.

Your car's 30.0 W headlight and 2.50 kW starter are ordinarily connected in parallel in a 12.0 V system. What power (in W) would
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

<h3>The power of headlight in series connection is 29.64 W</h3>

Explanation:

Given :

Power of headlight P_{1} = 30 W

Power of starter P_{2} = 2500 W

Voltage of headlight and starter V = 12 V

From equation of power,

 P = \frac{V^{2} }{R}

 R = \frac{V^{2} }{P}

For finding the resistance of headlight and starter,

⇒ For headlight,

 R_{1}  = \frac{144}{30} = 4.8 Ω

⇒ For starter,

R_{2} = \frac{144}{2500} = 0.057 Ω

Since equivalent resistance,

R_{eq} = R_{1} + R_{2} + ........

R_{eq} = 4.8 +0.057 = 4.857 Ω

So power in series is given by,

 P_{s } = \frac{V^{2} }{R_{eq} }  = \frac{144}{4.857}

 P_{s } = 29.64 W

Guys please help me out I’ll give extra points
zvonat [6]

Answer: h = 3.34 m

Explanation:

If the hat is thrown straight up, then at its highest point it has no motion and no kinetic energy. All energy is potential energy

PE = mgh

h = PE/mg = 4.92 / (0.150(9.81)) = 3.34352... ≈3.34 m

A space probe is fired as a projectile from the Earth's surface with an initial speed of 2.05 104 m/s. What will its speed be wh
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The value is  v  =  2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  initial speed is u =  2.05 *10^{4} \  m/s

 Generally the total energy possessed by the space probe when on earth is mathematically represented as

             T__{E}} =  KE__{i}} +  KE__{e}}

Here  KE_i is the kinetic energy of the space probe due to its initial speed which is mathematically represented as

          KE_i =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  u^2

=>       KE_i =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  (2.05 *10^{4})^2

=>       KE_i =  2.101 *10^{8} \ \ m \ \ J

And  KE_e is the kinetic energy that the space probe requires to escape the Earth's gravitational pull , this is mathematically represented as

       KE_e =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v_e^2

Here v_e is the escape velocity from earth which has a value v_e =  11.2 *10^{3} \  m/s

=>    KE_e =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  (11.3 *10^{3})^2

=>    KE_e =  6.272 *10^{7} \  \  m  \ \   J

Generally given that at a position that is very far from the earth that the is Zero, the kinetic energy at that position is mathematically represented as

        KE_p =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v^2

Generally from the law energy conservation we have that

        T__{E}} =  KE_p

So

       2.101 *10^{8}  m  +  6.272 *10^{7}  m  =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v^2

=>     5.4564 *10^{8} =   v^2

=>     v =  \sqrt{5.4564 *10^{8}}

=>     v  =  2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s
