Answer:
Linear functions are equations where the greatest power of the variable (typically x) is 1;
They are graphed as straight lines;
So, any function that has the following format:
f(x) = ax + b;
Nonlinear functions would be any equation that has a variable to a power greater than 1;
This could be a quadratic equation or an exponential equation
Answer: 3.61×10^5 A
Step-by-step explanation: Since the brain has been modeled as a current carrying loop, we use the formulae for the magnetic field on a current carrying loop to get the current on the hemisphere of the brain.
The formulae is given below as
B = u×Ia²/2(x²+a²)^3/2
Where B = strength of magnetic field on the axis of a circular loop = 4.15T
u = permeability of free space = 1.256×10^-6 mkg/s²A²
I = current on loop =?
a = radius of loop.
Radius of loop is gotten as shown... Radius = diameter /2, but diameter = 65mm hence radius = 32.5mm = 32.5×10^-3 m = 3.25×10^-2m
x = distance of the sensor away from center of loop = 2.10 cm = 0.021m
By substituting the parameters into the formulae, we have that
4.15 = 1.256×10^-6 × I × (3.25×10^-2)²/2{(0.021²) + (3.25×10^-2)²}^3/2
4.15 = 13.2665 × 10^-10 × I/ 2( 0.00149725)^3/2
4.15 = 1.32665 ×10^-9 × I / 2( 0.000058)
4.15 × 2( 0.000058) = 1.32665 ×10^-9 × I
I = 4.15 × 2( 0.000058)/ 1.32665 ×10^-9
I = 4.80×10^-4 / 1.32665 ×10^-9
I = 3.61×10^5 A
We call the ratio between two directly proportional quantities the constant of proportionality. When two quantities are directly proportional, they increase and decrease at the same rate. While these two quantities may increase or decrease, the constant of proportionality always remains the same.
