Answer:

253 years

Explanation:

a = Distance in Astronomical units from the sun = 40 AU

P = Orbital period in years

From Kepler's law we have

P^2=a^3

\Rightarrow P^2=40^3

\Rightarrow P^2=64000

\Rightarrow P=\sqrt{64000}

\Rightarrow P=252.982212813

\Rightarrow P\approx 253\ years

The orbital period of the Kuiper belt object is 253 years.

They start as one stream, then get curvier, then empy into a delta. A delta is a ton of streams of water. It is one, then empties out into a ton of streams.

An emf of 28.0 mV is induced in a 501 turn coil when the current is changing at a rate of 12.0 A/s. What is the magnetic flux th
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Φ = 5.589×10⁻⁵  Wb

Explanation:

The inductance of a coil is given as

L = e/(di/dt) ..................... Equation 1

Where L = inductance of the coil, e = induced e.m.f, di/dt = rate of change of current in the coil.

Also,

The inductance of each turn of the coil when a magnetic field is step up in the coil  is

L = NΦ/i ................. Equation 2

Where N = number of turns, Φ = magnetic field, i = current.

equating equation 1 and equation 2

e/(di/dt) = NΦ/i

making Φ the subject of the equation,

Φ = (e×i)/N.(di/dt) .................. Equation 3

Given: e = 28.0 mV = 0.028 V, N = 501 turns, di/dt = 12.0 A/s, i = 4.00 a

Substitute into equation 3,

Φ = (0.028×4)/(12×501)

Φ = 0.112/2004

Φ = 5.589×10⁻⁵ Weber

Φ = 5.589×10⁻⁵ Wb
