Stells [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

About 8 kpc

Explanation:

The milky way galaxy is the galaxy we live in. Its composed of the solar system, billion stars, gas, dust and dark matter.

At its center it contains a super massive black hole called Sagittarius. This object is millions of times as massive as the sun.

The sun is about 8 kpc to the center of the milky way galaxy, this is about 26,000 light years away.

1000 parsecs distance is approximately 3262 light years.

A light year is the distance light can travel in a period of 1 year.

A square coil ℓ = 2cm on a side with 30 turns rotates in a uniform magnetic field, B~ = B0zˆ = 0.1Tˆz, such that the normal of t
kow [346]

Answer:

a) 1.2*10^{-3}cos(1.25t)

b) 0.49mV

Explanation:

a) The coil rotates periodically with period T. Hence, we can write the variation of the magnetic flux with a sinusoidal function, and with max flux NAB. Thus, we have that:

\Phi_B(t)=NABcos(\omega t)\\\\\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=1.25\frac{rad}{s}\\\\A=l^2=(0.02m)^2=4*10^{-4}m^2\\\\B=0.1T\\\\\Phi_B(t)=1.2*10^{-3}cos(1.25 t) W

where we have used the values given by the information of the problem for N B and A.

b)

the emf is given by:

emf=-\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}=-NBA\omega sin(\omega t)\\\\emf(t=12.5s)=-(30)(0.1T)(4*10^{-4})(1.25\frac{rad}{s})sin(1.25*12.5)=1.49*10^{-4}V=0.49mV

hope this helps!!

Red, green, and blue light rays each enter a drop of water from the same direction.Which light ray's path through the drop will
geniusboy [140]
Blue light will bend more than the others because it has a slightly greater refractive index. This is because blue light has a shorter wavelength and more energy, meaning it has to slow down more than the others when it hits the water.
