Answer:

The string will break with a speed of 20 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Tension at which the string just breaks, T = 400 N

Mass of the stone, m = 10 kg

Radius of the circle, r = 10 m

We need to find the speed at which the string will break. The boy continuously increases the speed of the stone. The tension acting on the stone is equal to the centripetal force. It is a force that acts towards the center of circle. It is given by :

$T=F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{Tr}{m}}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{400\ N\times 10\ m}{10\ kg}}$

v = 20 m/s

So, the string will break with a speed of 20 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Weak magnetic fields can be measured at the surface of the brain. Although the currents causing these fields are quite complicat

STALIN [3.7K]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to a magnetic field in spheres.

By definition we know that the magnetic field in a sphere can be described as

$B = \frac{\mu_0}{2}\frac{Ia^2}{(z^2+a^2)^{3/2}}$

Where,

a = Radius

z = Distance to the magnetic field

I = Current

$\mu_0 =$ Permeability constant in free space

Our values are given as

$D=2a = 16cm \rightarrow$ diameter of the sphere then,

$a = 0.08m$

Thus z = a

$B = \frac{\mu_0}{2}\frac{Ia^2}{(a^2+a^2)^{3/2}}$

$B = \frac{\mu_0I}{2(2^{3/2})a}$

$B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2^{5/2}a}$

Re-arrange to find I,

$I = \frac{2^{5/2}Ba}{\mu_0}$

$I = \frac{2^{5/2}(3*10^{-12})(8*10^{-2})}{4\pi*10^{-7}}$

$I = 1.08*10^{-6}A$

Therefore the current at the pole of this sphere is $1.08*10^{-6}A$

two children sit on a merry go round. on sits 0.5 m from the center and the other sits 3 m from the center. Which child has grea

GuDViN [60]

i would say that the child with more linear speed is the cild that is 3 meters away from the center of the merry go round. because the child that is 0.5 meters from the center of the merry go round is less linear because the steering of the merry go round is started from the outer part of the merry go round so it would make more sense that the child that is 3 meters from the center of the merry go round would be more linear in speed.

hope this helps!

What is happening when two waves with identical crests and troughs meet?

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

When two waves meet in such a way that their crests line up together, then it's called constructive interference. The resulting wave has a higher amplitude. In destructive interference, the crest of one wave meets the trough of another, and the result is a lower total amplitude.
