Answer:

e = 1.21 mV

Explanation:

given,                                

length of rod = 10 m                

height of drop = 4.89 m          

Earth’s magnetic field =  12.4 µT

acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s²

velocity of the beam                      

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 4.89}

v = 9.79 m/s                        

emf of the beam

e = B l v                              

e = 12.4 x 10⁻⁶ x 9.79 x 10

e = 1.21 x 10⁻³ V

e = 1.21 mV

A child sits 1.6 m from the center of a merry go round that makes one complete revolution in 4.7 s. What is his angular accelera
olga2289 [7]

Answer: angular acceleration = 2.86\ rad/sec^{2}

Given:

Distance from center of axis = 1.6 m

Time taken to complete one revolution = 4.7 sec

Therefore, we can evaluate the angular acceleration using the following formula:

\alpha = r\times \omega^{2}

\alpha = r\times (\frac{2\pi}{T})^{2}

\alpha = 1.6\times (\frac{2\times3.14}{4.7})^{2}

\alpha = 2.86\ rad/sec^{2}

Compare the force of air resistance and the force of gravity on an object falling at its terminal velocity.
Sholpan [36]
The viscous force on an object moving through air is proportional to its velocity.
The only forces acting on an object when falling are air resistance and its weight itself. The weight acts vertically downwards whereas air resistance acts vertically upward.
Let F be the viscous force due to air molecules, B be buoyant force due to air and W be the weight of falling object. Initially, the velocity of falling object and hence the viscous force F is zero and the object is accelerated due to force
(W-B). Because of the acceleration the velocity increases and accordingly the viscous force also increases. At a certain instant, the viscous force becomes equal to W-B. The net force then becomes zero and the object falls with constant velocity. This constant velocity is called terminal velocity.
Thus at terminal velocity, air resistance and force of gravity becomes equal.

A potential difference of 107 mV exists between the inner and outer surfaces of a cell membrane. The inner surface is negative r
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The workdone is  W = 1.712 *10^{-20 } \  J  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The potential difference is  V  =  107 mV =  107 *10^{-3} \  V

Generally the charge on  Na^{+} is  Q_{Na^{+}} = 1.60 *10^{-19 } \  C

 Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as

         W =  Q_{Na^{+}}V

=>     W = 1.60 *10^{-19 } *  107 *10^{-3}    

=>     W = 1.712 *10^{-20 } \  J
