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

A straight wire of length 0.56 m carries a conventional current of 0.4 amperes. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field made
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field made by current in the wire is 3.064 x 10⁻⁶ T.

Explanation:

Given;

length of the straight wire, L = 0.56 m

conventional current, I = 0.4 A

distance of magnetic field from the wire, r = 2.6 cm = 0.026 m

To determine magnitude of magnetic field made by current in the wire, we will apply Bio-Savart Law;

B = \frac{\mu_o}{4\pi r} \frac{LI}{\sqrt{r^2 +(L/2)^2} } \\\\B = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}}{4\pi *0.026} \frac{0.56*0.4}{\sqrt{(0.026)^2 +(0.56/2)^2} }\\\\B = 3.846*10^{-6}(0.7966)\\\\B = 3.064*10^{-6} \ T

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field made by current in the wire is 3.064 x 10⁻⁶ T.

A graduated beaker with 375 mL of water is sitting on a scale which measures the weight of the glass and water to be 7.60 N. Whe
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Volume of water displaced = 450 - 375 = 75 ml

Vr = volume of rock = 75 ml

Wr = 9.22 - 7.60 = 1.62 N  weight of 75 ml of rock

Density of rock = 1.62 N / 75 ml = .0216 N / ml

Density of water = 1000 g / 1000 ml = 9.8 N / 1000 ml = .0098 N / ml

Density of rock / density of water = .0216 / .0098 = 2.20

g A change in the initial _____ of a projectile changes the range and maximum height of the projectile.​
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Velocity.

Explanation:

Projectile motion is characterized as the motion that an object undergoes when it is thrown into the air and it is only exposed to acceleration due to gravity.

As per the question, 'any change in the initial velocity of the projectile(object having gravity as the only force) would lead to a change in the range as well as the maximum height of the projectile.' To illustrate numerically:

Horizontal range: As per expression:

R= (u^{2}*sin2θ)/g

the range depending on the square of the initial velocity.

Maximum height: As per expression:

H= (u^{2} * sin^{2}θ )/2g

the maximum distance also depends upon square of the initial velocity.
