The average speed is 615.7 mph (275.2 m/s)

Explanation:

The average speed of an object gives a measure of how fast an object is moving over a certain time interval. It is a scalar quantity, and it is calculated as follows

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

where

v is the average speed

d is the distance covered

t is the time interval

For the jet in this problem, we have:

d = 1293 mi is the distance covered

t = 2.1 h is the time interval

Therefore, the average speed is:

$v=\frac{1293}{2.1}=615.7 mph$

We can also convert into SI units (m/s), keeping in mind that:

$1 mi = 1609 m\\1 h = 3600 s$

And so

$v=615.7 \frac{mi}{h}\cdot \frac{1609 m/mi}{3600 s/h}=275.2 m/s$

As a new electrical technician, you are designing a large solenoid to produce a uniform 0.160 {\rm T} magnetic field near the ce

lakkis [162]

Answer: I = 0.00383A (approx.)

Explanation:

Using the formula:

B = uni

Where B= magnetic field; 0.160mT

= 0.160 × 10^-2 m/T

n = N/L ; N= 4200 turns,

L =1.25mm = 1.25 × 10^-3m

u = 4π × 10 ^ -7.

Now since magnetic field inside a solenoid is independent of dimension B = uNI/L

I = BL/uN

= 0.00162 × 0.00125 /(4200 × 4π ×10 ^ -7)

I = 0.00384A

A satellite is in a circular orbit around the Earth at an altitude of 2.80 3 106 m. Find (a) the period of the orbit, (b) the sp

Katen [24]

Explanation:

Given that,

Altitude $h= 2.803\times10^{6}\ m$

We need to calculate the radius

$r=R+h$

Where, R = radius of the earth

h = radius of altitude

Put the value into the formula

$r=(6.38\times10^{6}+2.803\times10^{6})$

$r=9.18\times10^{6}\ m$

(a). We need to calculate the period of the orbit,

Using formula of period

$T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}r^3$

$T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{6.67\times10^{-11}\times5.98\times10^{24}}\times(9.18\times10^{6})^3$

$T^2=76570372.9509\ sec$

$T=8750.45\ sec$

(b). We need to calculate the speed of the satellite

Using formula of speed

$v^2=\dfrac{GM}{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$v^2=\dfrac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times5.98\times10^{24}}{9.18\times10^{6}}$

$v^2=43449455.3377\ m/s$

$v=6.59\times10^{3}\ m/s$

(c). We need to calculate the acceleration of the satellite

Using formula of acceleration

$a_{c}=\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$a_{c}=\dfrac{(6.59\times10^{3})^2}{9.18\times10^{6}}$

$a_{c}=4.73\ m/s^2$

Hence, This is the required solution.
