An 0.80-m aluminum bar is held with its length parallel to the east-west direction and dropped from a bridge. Just before the ba

r hits the river below, its speed is 23 m/s, and the emf induced across its length is 5.5 x 10-4 V. Assuming the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field at the location of the bar points directly north, (a) determine the magnitude of the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field.(b) state whether the east end or the west end of the bar is positive.

Answer:

a) B=2.9891\times 10^{-5}\,T

b)  west end of the bar is positive.

Explanation:

Given:

  • emf induced in the bar, \epsilon=5.5\times 10^{-4}\,V
  • length of the bar, l=0.8\,m
  • velocity of the bar at the given instant, v=23\,m.s^{-1}

(a)

The magnitude of the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field(B):

We know:

\epsilon=B.l.v

5.5\times 10^{-4}=B\times 0.8\times 23

B=2.9891\times 10^{-5}\,T

(b)

Using Fleming's left hand rule we determine that the current is flowing towards east end of the bar i.e. west end of the bar is positive.

Degger [83]

Yes, it's true.

But 2nd Newton Law always come to play when the horse is to move forward because obviously the forces interact antagonistically and mass has to be accounted for.

That's what I think. Hope it's right, all the best.

What's the formula to find out power
Julli [10]

In general, 

                 Power = (energy moved) / (time to move the energy) .

If it's mechanical power, then     

                 Power = (work done) / (time to do the work) .

If it's electrical power, then it can be any one of these:

                 Power  =  (volts)  x  (amperes)

                 Power  =  (volts)²  /  (resistance, ohms)

                 Power  =  (amperes)²  x  (resistance, ohms) .

Whatever kind of energy you're dealing with, power always
turns out to be

                  (amount of energy produced, used, or moved)
divided by
                  (time taken to produce, use, or move the energy) .

Two particles, each of charge Q, are fixed at opposite corners of a square that lies in the plane of the page. A positive test c
amid [387]

Answer:

The magnitude of the net force is √2F.

Explanation:

Since the two particles have the same charge Q, they exert the same force on the test charge; both attractive or repulsive. So, the angle between the two forces is 90° in any case. Now, as we know the magnitude of these forces and that they form a 90° angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the magnitude of the resultant net force:

F_N=\sqrt{F^{2}+F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2}F

Then, it means that the net force acting on the test charge has a magnitude of √2F.
