Complete question:

It is known that birds can detect the earth's magnetic field, but the mechanism of how they do this is not known. It has been suggested that perhaps they detect a motional EMF as they fly north to south, but it turns out that the induced voltages are small compared to the voltages normally encountered in cells, so this is probably not the mechanism involved.

To check this out, calculate the induced voltage for a wild goose with a wingspan of 1.5 m at level flight due south at 13 m/s at a point where the earth's magnetic field is 3 ×10−5 T directed downward from horizontal by 14 degrees. What would be the expected voltage difference across the goose's wingtips?

Answer:

The expected voltage difference across the goose's wingtips is 0.1415 mV

Explanation:

Given;

wingspan of the wild goose, L = 1.5 m

speed of the wild goose, v = 13 m/s

Earth's magnetic field strength, B =  3 × 10⁻⁵ T

angle of inclination of the bird's motion to Earth's magnetic field, θ = 14⁰

If the bird's wings act like conduct in the Earth's magnetic field, then induced emf according to Faraday, will be calculated as follows;

emf = BLvsinθ

where;

B is Earth's magnetic field strength

L is length of the conductor (wingspan)

v is velocity of the conductor (wingspan)

θ is the angle of inclination to the magnetic field

Induced emf = (3 × 10⁻⁵ )( 1.5 )(13 )sin14⁰

Induced emf = 1.4152 x 10⁻⁴ V = 0.1415 mV

Thus, the expected voltage difference across the goose's wingtips is 0.1415 mV

Two cars, initially at rest and 5 km apart at t=0 , simultaneously move toward each other. Car A travels at a constant speed of
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

<em>d. 268 s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Constant Speed Motion</u>

An object is said to travel at constant speed if the ratio of the distance traveled by the time taken is constant.

Expressed in a simple equation, we have:

\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}

Where  

v = Speed of the object

d = Distance traveled

t  = Time taken to travel d.

From the equation above, we can solve for d:

d = v . t

And we can also solve it for t:

\displaystyle t=\frac{d}{v}

Two cars are initially separated by 5 km are approaching each other at relative speeds of 55 km/h and 12 km/h respectively. The total speed at which they are approaching is 55+12 = 67 km/h.

The time it will take for them to meet is:

\displaystyle t=\frac{5}{67}

t = 0.0746 hours

Converting to seconds: 0.0746*3600 = 268.56

The closest answer is d. 268 s

A parked car's horn (belonging to a musician) emits a concert A of frequency 440 on a day when the speed of sound is 342 m/s. Yo
julsineya [31]

Answer:

19.08 m/s

Explanation:

f = actual frequency emitted by the parked car's horn = 440 Hz

V = speed of sound = 342 m/s

f' = frequency of the horn observed by you = 466 Hz

v = speed of your car moving towards the parked car = ?

frequency of the horn observed by you is given as

f' = \frac{Vf}{V - v}

466 = \frac{(342)(440)}{342 - v}

v = 19.08 m/s

densk [106]

Here when car in front of us applied brakes then it is slowing down due to frictional force on it

So here we can say that friction force on the car front of our car is given as

F_f = \mu m g

So the acceleration of car due to friction is given as

F_{net} = - \mu mg

a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}

a = -\mu g

now it is given that

\mu = 0.868

g = 9.81 m/s^2

so here we have

a = -0.868 * 9.81

a = -8.52 m/s^2

so the car will accelerate due to brakes by a = - 8.52 m/s^2
