Inductors in parallel. Two inductors L1 = 1.31 H and L2 = 2.24 H are connected in parallel and separated by a large distance so

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) 0.83H

b) 3.22/N Henry

Explanation:

Given two inductors L1 = 1.31 H and L2 = 2.24 H connected in parallel, their equivalent inductance derivative is similar to that of resistance in parallel.

Derivation:

If the voltage across an inductor

VL = IXL

I is the current

XL is the inductive reactance

XL = 2πfL

VL = I(2πfL)

L is the inductance.

From the formula, I = V/2πfL

Given two inductors in parallel, different current will flow through them.

I1 = V/2πfL1 (current in L1)

I2 = V/2πfL2 (current in L2)

Total current I = I1+I2

I = V/2πfL1 + V/2πfL2

I = V/2πf{1/L1+1/L2}

V/2πfL = V/2πf{1/L1+1/L2}

1/L = 1/L1+1/L2 (equivalent inductance in parallel)

Given L1 = 1.31 H and L2 = 2.24

1/L = 1/1.31 + 1/2.24

1/L = 0.763 + 0.446

1/L = 1.209

L = 1/1.209

L = 0.83H

The equivalent inductance is 0.83H

b) Given similar inductors L = 3.22H in parallel, the equivalent inductance will be:

1/L = 1/3.22+1/3.22+1/3.22+1/3.22+1/3.22

+1/3.22+1/3.22+1/3.22+1/3.22+1/3.22

1/L = 10/3.22 (since that all have the same denominator)

L = 3.22/10

If N = 10, the generalization of 10 similar inductors in parallel will be:

L = 3.22/N Henry

If a substance has a density of 2.7g/cm3 and a mass of 86.4g, what is its volume?

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

32cm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Density of substance = 2.7g/cm³

Mass of substance = 86.4g

Unknown:

Volume of substance = ?

Solution:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance.

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

Since the unknown is volume we solve for it;

mass = density x volume

86.4 = 2.7 x volume

volume = $\frac{86.4}{2.7}$ = 32cm³

Find the speed of a satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth with a radius 3.57 times the mean radius of the Earth. (Radiu

madam [21]

The speed of the satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth is 1.32 x 10⁵ m/s.

<h3>Speed of the satellite</h3>

v = √(GM/r)

where;

G is universal gravitation constant
M is mass of Earth
r is radius of the satellite

v = √(6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x 5.98 x 10²⁴/3.57 x 6.37x 10³)

v = 1.32 x 10⁵ m/s

Thus, the speed of the satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth is 1.32 x 10⁵ m/s.

A particle has a charge of q = +4.9 μC and is located at the origin. As the drawing shows, an electric field of Ex = +242 N/C ex

irina1246 [14]

a)

$F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3}N$ (+x axis)

$F_{B_x}=0$

$F_{B_y}=0$

b)

$F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3} N$ (+x axis)

$F_{B_x}=0$

$F_{B_y}=3.21\cdot 10^{-3}N$ (+z axis)

c)

$F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3} N$ (+x axis)

$F_{B_x}=3.21\cdot 10^{-3} N$ (+y axis)

$F_{B_y}=3.21\cdot 10^{-3}N$ (-x axis)

Explanation:

a)

The electric force exerted on a charged particle is given by

$F=qE$

where

q is the charge

E is the electric field

For a positive charge, the direction of the force is the same as the electric field.

In this problem:

$q=+4.9\mu C=+4.9\cdot 10^{-6}C$ is the charge

$E_x=+242 N/C$ is the electric field, along the x-direction

So the electric force (along the x-direction) is:

$F_{E_x}=(4.9\cdot 10^{-6})(242)=1.19\cdot 10^{-3} N$

towards positive x-direction.

The magnetic force instead is given by

$F=qvB sin \theta$

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity of the charge

B is the magnetic field

$\theta$ is the angle between the directions of v and B

Here the charge is stationary: this means $v=0$ , therefore the magnetic force due to each component of the magnetic field is zero.

b)

In this case, the particle is moving along the +x axis.

The magnitude of the electric force does not depend on the speed: therefore, the electric force on the particle here is the same as in part a,

$F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3} N$ (towards positive x-direction)

Concerning the magnetic force, we have to analyze the two different fields:

- $B_x$ : this field is parallel to the velocity of the particle, which is moving along the +x axis. Therefore, $\theta=0^{\circ}$ , so the force due to this field is zero.

$- B_y$ : this field is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle, which is moving along the +x axis. Therefore, $\theta=90^{\circ}$ . Therefore, $\theta=90^{\circ}$ , so the force due to this field is:

$F_{B_y}=qvB_y$

where:

$q=+4.9\cdot 10^{-6}C$ is the charge

$v=345 m/s$ is the velocity

$B_y = +1.9 T$ is the magnetic field

Substituting,

$F_{B_y}=(4.9\cdot 10^{-6})(345)(1.9)=3.21\cdot 10^{-3} N$

And the direction of this force can be found using the right-hand rule:

- Index finger: direction of the velocity (+x axis)

- Middle finger: direction of the magnetic field (+y axis)

- Thumb: direction of the force (+z axis)

c)

As in part b), the electric force has not change, since it does not depend on the veocity of the particle:

$F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3}N$ (+x axis)

For the field $B_x$ , the velocity (+z axis) is now perpendicular to the magnetic field (+x axis), so the force is

$F_{B_x}=qvB_x$

And by substituting,

$F_{B_x}=(4.9\cdot 10^{-6})(345)(1.9)=3.21\cdot 10^{-3} N$

And by using the right-hand rule:

- Index finger: velocity (+z axis)

- Middle finger: magnetic field (+x axis)

- Thumb: force (+y axis)

For the field $B_y$ , the velocity (+z axis) is also perpendicular to the magnetic field (+y axis), so the force is

$F_{B_y}=qvB_y$

And by substituting,

$F_{B_y}=(4.9\cdot 10^{-6})(345)(1.9)=3.21\cdot 10^{-3} N$

And by using the right-hand rule:

- Index finger: velocity (+z axis)

- Middle finger: magnetic field (+y axis)

- Thumb: force (-y axis)
