               ( 3 yr) · (186,282.397 mile/s) · (86,400 s/day) · (365 day/yr)

           =  (3 · 186,282.397 · 86,400 · 365)  mile

           =      1.762380502 x 10¹³  miles

           =      1.8 x 10¹³  miles    (rounded to the nearest trillion miles)

Two coils close to each other have a mutual inductance of 32 mH. If the current in one coil decays according to I=I0e−αt, where
fiasKO [112]

The emf induced in the second coil is given by:

V = -M(di/dt)

V = emf, M = mutual indutance, di/dt = change of current in the first coil over time

The current in the first coil is given by:

i = i₀e^{-at}

i₀ = 5.0A, a = 2.0×10³s⁻¹

i = 5.0e^(-2.0×10³t)

Calculate di/dt by differentiating i with respect to t.

di/dt = -1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t)

Calculate a general formula for V. Givens:

M = 32×10⁻³H, di/dt = -1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t)

Plug in and solve for V:

V = -32×10⁻³(-1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t))

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³t)

We want to find the induced emf right after the current starts to decay. Plug in t = 0s:

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³(0))

V = 320e^0

V = 320 volts

We want to find the induced emf at t = 1.0×10⁻³s:

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³(1.0×10⁻³))

V = 43 volts

g As observed on earth, a certain type of bacteria is known to double in number every 24 hours. Two cultures of these bacteria a
tangare [24]

Answer:

86.4 hrs

Explanation:

The amount of bacteria is initially 1

It doubles every 24 hrs.

After first 24 hrs, the amount = 2

After next 24 hrs = 4

After next 24 hrs = 8

After next 24 hrs = 16

After next 24 hrs = 32

After next 24 hrs = 64

After next 24 hrs = 128

After next 24 hrs = 256

Total time taken to reach 256 = 24 x 8 = 192 hrs

For the bacteria culture on the rocket that travels at a speed of 0.893c relative to the earth, this time is contracted by the relationship

t = t'(1 - ¥^2)^0.5

Where t is the contracted time =?

t' is the time on earth

¥ = v/c

Where v is the speed of the rocket

c is the speed of light

since v = 0.893c

¥ = 0.893

Substituting, we have

t = 192 x (1 - 0.893^2)^0.5

t = 192 x 0.2025^0.5

t = 192 x 0.45 = 86.4 hrs

At a certain instant, the earth, the moon, and a stationary 1160 kg spacecraft lie at the vertices of an equilateral triangle wh
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

W = 1.22 \times 10^9 J

Explanation:

Initial potential energy of the given spacecraft is given as

U = -\frac{GM_e m}{r} - \frac{GM_m m}{r}

so we have

U = - \frac{Gm}{r}(M_e + M_m)

so we have

M_e = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg

M_m = 7.35 \times 10^{22} kg

m = 1160 kg

r = 3.84 \times 10^8 m

U = - \frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(1160)}{3.84 \times 10^8}(5.98 \times 10^{24} + 7.35 \times 10^{22})

U = -1.22 \times 10^9 J

now total work done to move it to infinite is given

W = 0 - U

W = 1.22 \times 10^9 J
