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.

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A physical quantity which can be completely described by the magnitude and direction both are called vector quantities. For example, displacement, velocity, etc.

A physical quantity which can be completely explained by the magnitude only is called scalar quantity. For example, mass, time, etc.

A. What is the RMS speed of Helium atoms when the temperature of the Helium gas is 343.0 K? (Possibly useful constants: the atom
kkurt [141]

Answer:

(a) 1462.38 m/s

(b) 2068.13 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

The Kinetic energy of the atom can be given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

where,

K = Boltzman's Constant = 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/k

K.E = Kinetic Energy of atoms = 343 K

T = absolute temperature of atoms

The K.E is also given as:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

Comparing both equations:

(1/2)mv² = (3/2)KT

v² = 3KT/m

v = √[3KT/m]

where,

m = mass of Helium = (4 A.M.U)(1.66 X 10⁻²⁷ kg/ A.M.U) = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

v = RMS Speed of Helium Atoms = ?

Therefore,

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(343 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 1462.38 m/s</u>

(b)

For double temperature:

T = 2 x 343 K = 686 K

all other data remains same:

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(686 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 2068.13 m/s</u>

a ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed of 40 m/s. how high is the ball above the ground when it stops
NISA [10]

Answer:

80m, assuming g=10m/s^2

Explanation:

40m/s will be reduced to 0m/s in 4 seconds. 4 seconds x 40m/s would be 160m up, but you will only get half of that because you decelerate linearly to 0m/s. This leaves you with 4 x 20 = 80m.
