Answer:

ns for high-speed rail in the United States date back to the High Speed Ground Transportation Act of 1965. Various state and federal proposals have followed. Despite being one of the world's first countries to get high-speed trains (the Metroliner service in 1969), it failed to spread. Definitions of what constitutes high-speed rail vary, including a range of speeds over 110 mph (180 km/h) and dedicated rail lines. Inter-city railwith top speeds between 90 and 125 mph (140 and 200 km/h) is sometimes referred to in the United States as higher-speed rail.[1]

Amtrak's Acela Express (reaching 150 mph, 240 km/h), Silver Star, Northeast Regional, Keystone Service, Vermonter and certain MARC Penn Line express trains (all five reaching 125 mph, 201 km/h) are the only high-speed services in the country.

As of 2020, the California High-Speed Rail Authority is working on the California High-Speed Rail project and construction is under way on sections traversing the Central Valley. The Central Valley section is planned to open in 2029 and Phase I is planned for completion in 2031.[2]

The power in a circuit is 2 W and the voltage is 20 VDC. What's the circuit current?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Power in the circuit is 0.1 amp

Explanation:

The power in the circuit is given by the formula

      P = V x I

Where P is Power, V is voltage supplied and I is current in circuit.

so,      I = P/v

            = 2/20

            =0.1 A

A long, straight wire is surrounded by a hollow metal cylinder whose axis coincides with that of the wire. The wire has a charge
Alexxx [7]

Explanation:

It is given that, a long, straight wire is surrounded by a hollow metal cylinder whose axis coincides with that of the wire.

The charge per unit length of the wire is \lambda and the net charge per unit length is 2 \lambda.

We know that there exist zero electric field inside the metal cylinder.

(a) Using Gauss's law to find the charge per unit length on the inner and outer surfaces of the cylinder. Let \lambda_i\ and\ \lambda_o are the charge per unit length on the inner and outer surfaces of the cylinder.

For inner surface,

\phi=\dfrac{q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon_o}

E.A=\dfrac{q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon_o}

0=\dfrac{\lambda_i+\lambda}{\epsilon_o}

\lambda_i=-\lambda  

For outer surface,

\lambda_i+\lambda_o=2\lambda

-\lambda+\lambda_o=2\lambda

\lambda_o=3\lambda

(b) Let E is the electric field outside the cylinder, a distance r from the axis. It is given by :

E_o=\dfrac{\lambda_o}{2\pi \epsilon_o r}

E_o=\dfrac{3\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_o r}

Hence, this is the required solution.

A uniform magnetic field passes through a horizontal circular wire loop at an angle 15.1 ° from the normal to the plane of the l
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

Magnetic flux through the loop is 1.03 T m²

Explanation:

Given:

Magnetic field, B = 4.35 T

Radius of the circular loop, r = 0.280 m

Angle between circular loop and magnetic field, θ = 15.1⁰

Magnetic flux is determine by the relation:

\Phi = BA\cos \theta   ....(1)

Here A represents area of the circular loop.

Area of circular loop, A = πr²

Hence, the equation (1) becomes:

\Phi=B\pi r^{2} \cos \theta

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

\Phi=4.35\times\pi (0.28)^{2} \cos 15.1

\Phi = 1.03 T m²
