Suppose the Helmholtz coil in this experiment is arranged to produce a magnetic field that points east. The current through the

coils is 11.5 mA. With the current off, the red needle of the compass points at zero degrees on the compass' bezel. At what angle will the compass needle rotate through when current is turned on and left on for a several seconds? Assume the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is 0.24 G and recall the constant k = 17.0 G/A.

Answer:

∅ = 39.2°

Explanation:

B= B<em>horizontal × </em>tan ∅

11.5×10⁻³ × 17 = 0.24 tan ∅

tan ∅ = (11.5×10⁻³× 17) ÷ 0.24

tan ∅ = 0.8146

∅ = tan⁻¹ 0.8146

∅ = 39.2°

A small object carrying a charge of -4.00 nC is acted upon by a downward force of 19.0 nN when placed at a certain point in an e
Gala2k [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge acting on the object, q=-4\ nC=-4\times 10^{-9}\ C

Force acting on the object, F=19\ nC=19\times 10^{-9}\ C (in downward direction)

(a) The electric force acting in the electric field is given by :

F=qE

E is the electric field

E=\dfrac{F}{q}

E=\dfrac{19\times 10^{-9}\ N}{4\times 10^{-9}\ C}

E = 4.75 N/C

The direction of electric field is as same as electric force. But it is negative charge. So, the direction of electric field is in upward direction.

(b) The charge on the proton is, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

The force acting on the proton is :

F=qE

F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 4.75

F=7.6\times 10^{-19}\ N

If the charge on the proton is positive, the force on the proton is in upward direction.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A wheel turns through 5.5 revolutions while being accelerated from rest at 20rpm/s.(a) What is the final angular speed ? (b) How
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

(a) The final angular speed is 12.05 rad/s

(b) The time taken to turn 5.5 revolutions is 5.74 s

Explanation:

Given;

number of revolutions, θ = 5.5 revolutions

acceleration of the wheel, α = 20 rpm/s

number of revolutions in radian is given as;

θ = 5.5 x 2π = 34.562 rad

angular acceleration in rad/s² is given as;

\alpha = \frac{20 \ rev}{min} *\frac{1}{s} *(\frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev } *\frac{1 \ min}{60 \ s}) \\\\\alpha = 2.1 \ rad/s^2

(a)

The final angular speed is given as;

\omega _f^2 = \omega_i ^2 + 2\alpha \theta\\\\\omega _f^2 = 0 +  2\alpha \theta\\\\\omega _f^2 =   2\alpha \theta\\\\\omega _f = \sqrt{2\alpha \theta}\\\\ \omega _f  = \sqrt{2(2.1) (34.562)}\\\\ \omega _f = 12.05 \ rad/s

(b) the time taken to turn 5.5 revolutions is given as

\omega _f = \omega _i + \alpha t\\\\12.05 = 0 + 2.1t\\\\t = \frac{12.05}{2.1} \\\\t = 5.74 \ s

What two kinds of crust are involved in a subduction zone
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Oceanic crust and continental crust

Explanation:

A subduction zone is normally between oceanic crust which is made of basalt and continental crust which is made of granite. Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. So when oceanic crust collides with continental crusts, it subsducts underneath the continental crust since it is denser.
