A metal disk of radius 4.0 cm is mounted on a frictionless axle. Current can flow through the axle out along the disk, to a slid

ing contact on the rim of the disk. A uniform magnetic field B= 1.25 T is parallel to the axle of the disk. When the current is 5.5 A, the disk rotates with constant angular velocity. What's the frictional force at the rim between the stationary electrical contact and t?

Answer:

Friction force is 0.1375 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Radius of the metal disc, R = 4.0 cm = 0.04 m

Magnetic field, B = 1.25 T

Current, I = 5.5 A

Force on a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field is given by considering it on a differential element:

dF = IB\times dR

Integrating the above eqn:

\int dF = IB\int_{0}^{R}dr

\tau = IB\times \frac{R^{2}}{2} = \frac{1}{2}IBR^{2}          (1)

Now the torque is given by:

\tau = F\times R                        (2)

From eqn (1) and (2):

F\times R = \frac{1}{2}IBR^{2}

Thus the Frictional force is given by:

F = \frac{1}{2}\times 5.5\times 1.25\times 0.04 = 0.1375\ N

The radius of earth is 6,370,000 m. Express this measurement in km in scientific notation with the correct number of significant
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

6.37 x 10³ Km

Explanation:

given,

Radius of earth = 6,370,000 m

we know,

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 0.001 Km

6,370,000 m =  6,370,000 x 0.001

                       = 6,370 Km

The number 6,370 has 3 significant figure.

To transform this to an exponential number, it is necessary to move the decimal to the left so there is only one digit in front of the decimal point.

Representing the given number in scientific notation

      = 6.37 x 10³ Km

If a thermometer measured the temperature in an oven as 400oF five days in a row when the temperature was actually 397oF, this m
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

It can be said to be reliable although it is not valid

Explanation:

This is because Reliability means an indicator of consistency, A measure should produce similar or the same results consistently if it measures the same quantity. So does the thermometer measures over 5days but it is not valid because it deviates from the real value
