Where on the Earth would you have to be to see the North Celestial Pole exactly halfway between your horizon and zenith?

Answer:

The point straight overhead on the celestial sphere for any observer is called the zenith and is always 90 degrees from the horizon. The arc that goes through the north point on the horizon, zenith, and south point on the horizon is called the meridian.

From any location on Earth you see only half of the celestial sphere, the half above the horizon.

If you stood at the North Pole of Earth, for example, you would see the north celestial pole overhead, at your zenith. The celestial equator, 90° from the celestial poles, would lie along your horizon.

marin [14]

Answer:

i = 101.4A

Explanation:

The steps to the solution can be found in the attachment below.

We have been given the frequency f = 60Hz. From this we can calculate the angular frequency of the power line.

It is assumed that sinwt = –1 in order to calculate the time varying current. Although the magnitude of the current is large, consideration should also be given to the distance between the coil and the power line. The induced emf is small considering the area of the coil which is 7.85×10-⁵m².

A capacitor with initial charge q0 is discharged through a resistor. What multiple of the time constant τ gives the time the cap
fiasKO [112]

Answer: a) 0.13*τ ; b) 2.08*τ

Explanation: In order to explain the discharg of a capacitor through a resistor, we have to consider the following:

Q(t)=Qo* exp(-t/τ) for a lose of 1/8-th of its charge

in this case, Q(t)=7/8*Qo=7/8*exp(-t/τ)

ln(7/8)*τ=-t

then, t= -ln(7/8)*τ =0.13

For a lose of 7/8 th  of its charge , we have

Q(t)=1/7*Qo*exp(-t/τ)

t=-ln(1/8)*τ=2.08
