The two conducting rails in the drawing are tilted upwards so they each make an angle of 30.0° with respect to the ground. The v

ertical magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.045 T. The 0.19 kg aluminum rod (length = 1.6 m) slides without friction down the rails at a constant velocity. How much current flows through the rod?

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.

The current in a coil with a self-inductance of 1 mH is 2.8 A at t = 0, when the coil is shorted through a resistor. The total r

pogonyaev

Given:

L = 1 mH = $1\times 10^{-3}$ H

total Resistance, R = 11 $\Omega$

current at t = 0 s,

$I_{o}$ = 2.8 A

Formula used:

$I = I_{o}\times e^-{\frac{R}{L}t}$

Solution:

Using the given formula:

current after t = 0.5 ms = $0.5\times 10^{-3} s$

for the inductive circuit:

$I = 2.8\times e^-{\frac{11}{1\times 10^{-3}}\times 0.5\times 10^{-3}}$

$I = 2.8\times e^-5.5$

I =0.011 A

A 1 036-kg satellite orbits the Earth at a constant altitude of 98-km. (a) How much energy must be added to the system to move t

Veronika [31]

Answer:

a) The Energy added should be 484.438 MJ

b) The Kinetic Energy change is -484.438 MJ

c) The Potential Energy change is 968.907 MJ

Explanation:

Let 'm' be the mass of the satellite , 'M'(6× $10^{24}$ be the mass of earth , 'R'(6400 Km) be the radius of the earth , 'h' be the altitude of the satellite and 'G' (6.67× $10^{-11}$ N/m) be the universal constant of gravitation.

We know that the orbital velocity(v) for a satellite -

v= $\sqrt{\frac{Gmm}{R+h} }$ [(R+h) is the distance of the satellite from the center of the earth ]

Total Energy(E) = Kinetic Energy(KE) + Potential Energy(PE)

For initial conditions ,

h = $h_{i}$ = 98 km = 98000 m

∴Initial Energy ( $E_{i}$ ) = $\frac{1}{2}$ m $v^{2}$ + $\frac{-GMm}{(R+h_{i} )}$

Substituting v= $\sqrt{\frac{GMm}{R+h_{i} } }$ in the above equation and simplifying we get,

$E_{i}$ = $\frac{-GMm}{2(R+h_{i}) }$

Similarly for final condition,

h= $h_{f}$ = 198km = 198000 m

∴Final Energy( $E_{f}$ ) = $\frac{-GMm}{2(R+h_{f}) }$

a) The energy that should be added should be the difference in the energy of initial and final states -

∴ ΔE = $E_{f}$ - $E_{i}$

= $\frac{GMm}{2}$ ( $\frac{1}{R+h_{i} }$ - $\frac{1}{R+h_{f} }$ )

Substituting ,

M = 6 × $10^{24}$ kg

m = 1036 kg

G = 6.67 × $10^{-11}$

R = 6400000 m

$h_{i}$ = 98000 m

$h_{f}$ = 198000 m

We get ,

ΔE = 484.438 MJ

b) Change in Kinetic Energy (ΔKE) = $\frac{1}{2}$ m[ $v_{f} ^{2}$ - $v_{i} ^{2}$ ]

= $\frac{GMm}{2}$ [ $\frac{1} {R+h_{f} }$ - $\frac{1} {R+h_{i} }$ ]

= -ΔE

= - 484.438 MJ

c) Change in Potential Energy (ΔPE) = GMm[ $\frac{1}{R+h_{i} }$ - $\frac{1}{R+h_{f} }$ ]

= 2ΔE

= 968.907 MJ

Energy is released during the fission of pu-239 atoms as a result of the

pav-90 [236]

<h2>Answer: process of converting matter into energy</h2><h2></h2>

Nuclear fission consists of dividing a heavy nucleus into two or more lighter or smaller nuclei, by means of the bombardment with neutrons to make it unstable. In this process that takes place in the atomic nucleus, neutrons, gamma rays and <u>large amounts of energy are emitted. </u>

Then, with this division a great release of energy occurs and the emission of two or three neutrons, other particles and gamma rays.

This means fission is a process in which energy is released by the separation of the components of the nucleous of the atom.

In other words:

<h2>Matter is converted to energy .</h2>

Water at room temperature is discharged from a pipe at a rate of 1000 gallons per minute (gpm). Express this flow rate in cubic

marshall27 [118]

Answer

given,

discharge rate from pipe = 1000 gallons/minutes

now,

flow rate in cubic meters per second

1 gallon = 0.00378541 m³

1 min = 60 s

Q = $1000\times \dfrac{0.00378541\ m^3}{1\ gallon}\times \dfrac{1\ min}{60\ s}$

Q = 0.063 m³/s

flow rate in liters per minute

1 gallon = 3.78541 L

Q = $1000\times \dfrac{3.78541\ m^3}{1\ gallon}$

Q = 3785.41 m³/min

flow rate in cubic feet per second

1 gallon = 0.133681 ft³

1 min = 60 s

Q = $1000\times \dfrac{0.133681\ ft^3}{1\ gallon}\times \dfrac{1\ min}{60\ s}$

Q = 2.23 ft³/s
