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.

What unit is used to measure the period of a wave?
mixer [17]

Answer:

D. Meters/Seconds

Explanation:

The time period of a wave is measured in seconds.

A typical wave involves both time and distance.  Consider a sound wave, which is basically a periodic modulation of the local air pressure.  We "hear" the sound because our ears respond to the variations of pressure.

The most common metric of a sound wave is frequency.  This is the rate at which the change in pressure occurs, and is measured in cycles per second, formally known as "hertz".  The period is the inverse of frequency andl has the units of seconds per cycle, commonly stated simply as seconds.

You place a book on top of a spring and push down, compressing the spring by 10 cm. When you let go of the book, it is pushed up
enot [183]
At First, there is chemical Energy( in your muscels) which is Used to Push down the spring. This Energy becomes the Energy of the spring, which increases until you stop pushing. If you Put your hand away, the Energy of the spring will become kinetic energ. This Energy is at the highest Level the Moment the book ist Leaving the spring. Afterwards, the kinetic Energy decreases while the Gravitational Potential Energy increases.
