Explanation:

Take south to be negative.

a. Momentum is mass times velocity.

p = mv

p = (540 kg) (-6 m/s)

p = -3240 kg m/s

p = 3240 kg m/s south

b. Impulse = change in momentum

J = Δp

Since the mass is constant:

J = mΔv

J = (540 kg) (-4 m/s − (-6 m/s))

J = 1080 kg m/s

J = 1080 kg m/s north

The magnetic field at the centre of a toroid is 2.2-mT. If the toroid carries a current of 9.6 A and has 6.000 turns, what is th

Answer:

Radius, r = 0.00523 meters

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, $B=2\ mT=2.2\times 10^{-3}\ T$

Current in the toroid, I = 9.6 A

Number of turns, N = 6

We need to find the radius of the toroid. The magnetic field at the center of the toroid is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_oNI}{2\pi r}$

$r=\dfrac{\mu_oNI}{2\pi B}$

$r=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 6\times 9.6}{2.2\pi \times 2\times 10^{-3}}$

r = 0.00523 m

$r=5.23\times 10^{-3}\ m$

So, the radius of the toroid is 0.00523 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which statement describes a surface wave?

katen-ka-za [31]

A surface wave is a wave that travels along the surface of a medium. The medium is the matter through which the wave travels. Ocean waves are the best-known examples of surface waves. They travel on the surface of the water between the ocean and the air. (According to ck12.org)

So your answer would be A!
