A light bulb and a solenoid are connected in series to a battery. An irod rod is thrust rapidly into the solenoid and later rapi

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

3) Dims in, Brightens out

Explanation:

The relationship between the inductance of a coil and the current is inverse.

As the rod is thrusted into the solenoid, the inductance increases, which in turn decreases the current and the bulb gets dimmer. This is also because some magnetic force is drawn away from the solenoid and the battery.

When the rod is removed, the inductance of the solenoid decreases, the current increases, and the bulb becomes brighter.

A CD spins at a constant angular velocity of 5.0 revolutions per second clockwise.

Lera25 [3.4K]

The true statement about the CD is:

<h3><em>b. No net torque acts on it at all.</em></h3>

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Centripetal Acceleration can be formulated as follows:

$\large {\boxed {a = \frac{ v^2 } { R } }$

<em>a = Centripetal Acceleration ( m/s² )</em>

<em>v = Tangential Speed of Particle ( m/s )</em>

<em>R = Radius of Circular Motion ( m )</em>

$\texttt{ }$

Centripetal Force can be formulated as follows:

$\large {\boxed {F = m \frac{ v^2 } { R } }$

<em>F = Centripetal Force ( m/s² )</em>

<em>m = mass of Particle ( kg )</em>

<em>v = Tangential Speed of Particle ( m/s )</em>

<em>R = Radius of Circular Motion ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem !

<em>Complete Question:</em>

<em>A CD spins at a constant angular velocity of 5.0 revolutions per second clockwise. Which of the following statements about the CD is true?</em>

<em>a. A net torque acts on it clockwise to keep it moving</em>

<em>b. No net torque acts on it at all.</em>

<em>c. A net torque acts on it counterclockwise to keep it moving</em>

<u>Given:</u>

angular velocity = ω = 5.0 revolutions per second

<u>Asked:</u>

net torque = Στ = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

Constant angular velocity → angular acceleration = α = 0 rad/s²

$\Sigma \tau = I \alpha$

$\Sigma \tau = I (0)$

$\Sigma \tau = 0 \texttt{ Nm}$

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

The true statement about the CD is:

<em>b. No net torque acts on it at all.</em>
