Answer:

The correct answer is option C. "The sun heats earth and it’s oceans unevenly".

Explanation:

Ocean water is warmer around the equator than the currents that come farther south of the equator. This phenomenon happens because the sun heats earth and its oceans unevenly since the amount of energy that reaches the Earth is a function of latitude. The equator has a 0 degree latitude, and is at this point at which the Earth receives more heat from the Sun

A 30.0-Î¼F capacitor is connected to a 49.0-Î© resistor and a generator whose rms output is 30.0 V at 60.0 Hz. (a) Find the rms

Natali5045456 [20]

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitor = 30μC

Resistor = 49.0Ω

Voltage = 30.0 V

Frequency = 60.0 Hz

We need to calculate the impedance

Using formula of impedance

$Z=\sqrt{R^2+X_{c}^2}$ .....(I)

We need to calculate the value of $X_{c}$

Using formula of $X_{c}$

$X_{c}=\dfrac{1}{2\pi f c}$

$X_{c}=\dfrac{1}{2\times\pi\times60.0\times30\times10^{-6}}$

$X_{c}=88.42\ \Omega$

Put the value of $X_{c}$ into the formula of impedance

$Z=\sqrt{(49.0)^2+(88.42)^2}$

$Z=101.08\ \Omega$

(a). We need to calculate the rms current in the circuit

Using formula of rms current

$I_{rms}=\dfrac{V}{Z}$

$I_{rms}=\dfrac{30.0}{101.08}$

$I_{rms}=0.30\ A$

The rms current in the circuit is 0.30 A.

(b). We need to calculate the rms voltage drop across the resistor

Using formula of rms voltage

$V_{rms}=I_{rms}\times R$

Put the value into the formula

$V_{rms}=0.30\times49.0$

$V_{rms}=14.7\ V$

The rms voltage drop across the resistor is 14.7 V

(c). We need to calculate the rms voltage drop across the capacitor

Using formula of rms voltage

$V_{rms}=I_{rms}\times X_{C}$

$V_{rms}=0.30\times88.42$

$V_{rms}=26.53\ V$

The rms voltage drop across the capacitor is 26.53 V.

Hence, This is the required solution.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Number of turns per unit length will be $n=2.786\times 10^4turns/m$

Explanation:

We have given that strength of the magnetic field produced by the solenoid B = 7 T

Current in the solenoid i = 200 A

Let the number of turns per unit length is n

Magnetic field due to solenoid is given as $B=\mu ni$ here $\mu$ is permeability of free space n is number of turns per unit length and i is current

So $7=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times n\times 200$

$n=2.786\times 10^4turns/m$
