A small airplane with a wingspan of 18.0 m is flying due north at a speed of 63.6 m/s over a region where the vertical component

of the Earth's magnetic field is 1.20 µT downward. What potential difference is developed between the airplane's wingtips and which wingtip is at higher potential?

Answer:

(a) ε = 1373.8.

(b) The wingtip which is at higher potential.

Explanation:

(a) Finding the potential difference between the airplane wingtips.

Given the parameters

wingspan of the plane is = 18.0m

speed of the plane in north direction is = 70.0m/s

magnetic field of the earth is = 1.20μT

The potential difference is given as:

ε = Blv

where ε = potential difference of wingtips

B = magnetic field of earth

l = wingspan of airplane

v = speed of airplane

ε = 1.2 x 18.0 x 63.6

ε  = 1373.8

(b) Which wingtip is at  higher potential?

The wingtip which is at higher potential.

The depth of the Pacific Ocean in the Mariana Trench is 36,198 ft. What is the gauge pressure at this depth
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

the pressure at the depth is 1.08 × 10^{8} Pa

Explanation:

The pressure at the depth is given by,

P = h \rho g

Where, P = pressure at the depth

h = depth of the Pacific Ocean in the Mariana Trench = 36,198 ft = 11033.15 meter

\rho = density of water = 1000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }

g = acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

P = 11033.15 × 9.8 × 1000

P = 1.08 × 10^{8} Pa

Thus, the pressure at the depth is 1.08 × 10^{8} Pa

The Force of friction between an object and the surface upon which it is sliding is 12N. The weight of the object is 20N. What i
shtirl [24]

Answer: The coefficient of kinetic friction is μ = 0.6

Explanation:

For an object of mass M, the weight is:

W = M*g

where g is the gravitational acceleration: g = 9.8m/s^2

And the friction force between this object and the surface can be written as:

F = W*μ

where μ is the coefficient of friction (kinetic if the object is moving, and static if the object is not moving, usually the static coefficient is larger)

In this case, the weight is:

W = 20N

And the friction force is:

F = 12N

Replacing these values in the equation for the friction force we get:

12N = 20N*μ

(12N/20N) = μ = 0.6

The coefficient of kinetic friction is μ = 0.6
