Answer:

The current flows through the rod is 14.9 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field = 0.045 T

Mass of aluminum rod  = 0.19 kg

Length = 1.6 m

Angle = 30.0°

We need to calculate the force

Using resolving force

F\cos\theta=mg\sin\theta

F=mg\tan\theta

Put the value into the formula

F=0.19\times9.8\times\tan30

F=1.075\ N

We need to calculate the current flows through the rod

Using formula of magnetic force

F=iLB

i=\dfrac{F}{LB}

Put the value into the formula

i=\dfrac{1.075}{1.6\times0.045}

i=14.9\ A

Hence, The current flows through the rod is 14.9 A.

A 10 kg brick and a 1 kg book are dropped in a vacuum. The force of gravity on the 10 kg brick is what?
Nadya [2.5K]
<span>10 times as much. Since F=m*a, and a is constant, the only thing that affects force is the mass.

In response to the below answer, the acceleration due to gravity does not change. The force due to gravity definitely DOES change depending on the mass of the object. Since the force is what the problem asks for, the answer is 10</span>

The magnetic flux through a loop:
dexar [7]

Answer:

The magnetic flux through a loop is zero when the B field is perpendicular to the plane of the loop.

Explanation:

Magnetic flux are also known as the magnetic line of force surrounding a bar magnetic in a magnetic field.

It is expressed mathematically as

Φ = B A cos(θ) where

Φ is the magnetic flux

B is the magnetic field strength

A is the area

θ is the angle that the magnetic field make with the plane of the loop

If B is acting perpendicular to the plane of the loop, this means that θ = 90°

Magnetic flux Φ = BA cos90°

Since cos90° = 0

Φ = BA ×0

Φ = 0

This shows that the magnetic flux is zero when the magnetic field strength B is perpendicular to the plane of the loop.

An airplane flies with a velocity of 750. kilometers
viktelen [127]

Answer:

650 km/hr

Explanation:

Draw a right triangle from (0.0) (Point A) down 30 degrees and to the right for a length of 750 (Point B).  Then draw a line from B up to the x axis to make a right angle (Point C).  Use the cosine function to find line AC, the vector portion of AB that lies of the x (East) axis.  Cosine(30)= Adjacent/Hypotenuse.

Cos(30) = AC/750

750*(cos(30)) = AC

AC = 649.5 km/hr

A 2 feet piece of wire is cut into two pieces and once a piece is bent into a square and the other is bent into an equilateral t
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let x ft be used to make square and 2-x ft be used to make equilateral triangle.

each side of square = x/4

area of square = ( x /4 )²

Each side of triangle

= (2-x) /3

Area of triangle = 1/2 (2-x)²/9 sin 60

= √3 / 36 x (2-x)²

Total area

A = ( x /4 )² +√3 / 36 (2-x)²

For maximum area

dA/dx = 0

1/16( 2x ) -√3 / 36 x2(2-x) = 0

x / 8 - √3(2-x)/ 18 = 0

x / 8 - √3/9 + √3/18 x = 0

x ( 1/8 + √3/18 ) = √3/9

x(.125 +.096 ) = .192

x = .868 ft
