An unusual lightning strike has a vertical portion with a current of −400 A downwards. The Earth's magnetic field at that locati

on is parallel to the ground and has a magnitude of 30 μT. Calculate, in N, the force exerted by the Earth's magnetic field on the 25-m-long current.

4 0

Answer:

0.3 N

Explanation:

i = 400 A

B = 30 x 10^-6 T

L = 25 m

Force due the current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field

F = B i L SinФ

where, Ф be the angle between length vector and magnetic field vector

F = 30 x 10^-6 x 400 x 25 = 0.3 N

nevsk [136]

Answer:

The smallest possibility is 0.01E-22kgm/s

Explanation:

Using

Momentum= h/4πx

= 6.6x 10^-34Js/ 4(3.142* 50*10-12m)

= 0.01*10^-22kgm/s

Calculate the height of a cliff if it takes 2.35s for a rock to hit the ground when it is thrown straight up from the cliff with
ad-work [718]

Answer:

y₀ = 10.625 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the kinematic relations, where the upward direction is positive.

         y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

in the exercise they indicate the initial velocity v₀ = 8 m / s.

when the rock reaches the ground its height is zero

         0 = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

        y₀i = -v₀ t + ½ g t²

let's calculate

         y₀ = - 8  2.5 + ½  9.8  2.5²

         y₀ = 10.625 m

An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas
jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks
