A mini rail gun made of a copper rod of mass m and radius r rests on two parallel copper rails that are a distance L apart and o

f length d. A magnetic field of magnitude B is directed perpendicular to the rod and the rails. When current is applied to the parallel copper rails, the rod rolls along the rails without slipping. If the rod starts from rest, what is the speed of the rod as it leaves the rails?

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnetic Force on the rod  F = Bi L

Work done by this force = F X d

=  Bi Ld

This energy is converted into both rotational and linear kinetic energy

= 1/2 I ω² + 1/2 mv²

= 1/2 x 1/2 m r²ω²+ 1/2 mv²

= 1/4 m v² + 1/2 mv²

= 3/4 mv²

So according to conservation of energy

Bi Ld =  3/4 mv²

v = \sqrt{\frac{4BiLd}{3m} }

You calculate the density of a block of aluminum to be 2.68 g/cm3. You look up the density of a block of aluminum at room temper
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Systematic errors.

Explanation:

The density of the aluminium was calculated by a human and this is not natural but can be due to errors in the calibration of the scale for measuring the weight or taking readings from the measuring cylinder.

Random errors are natural errors. Random errors in experimental measurements are caused by unknown and unpredictable changes in the experiment. Systematic errors are due to imprecision or problems with instruments.
