A certain superconducting magnet in the form of a solenoid of length 0.56 m can generate a magnetic field of 6.5 T in its core w
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The value  is N =36203 \  turns

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The length of the solenoid is  l = 0.56 \  m

   The magnetic field is B  =  6.5 \ T

    The current is I = 80 \ A

     The desired temperature is  T = 4.2 \ K

Generally the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

       B  = \frac{\mu_o * N * I }{L }

=>     N = \frac{B  * L }{\mu_o * I }

Here  \mu_o is the permeability of free space with value  

      \mu_o =  4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2

So

     N = \frac{6.5  * 0.56 }{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} *  80  }

=>   N =36203 \  turns

Kara is writing a science-fiction story. In the story, Earth no longer experiences day and night.
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

C. She should get the Earth spinning on its axis again.

Explanation:

The Earth experiences day and night because of its spinning on its own axis.

If Kara's science-fiction story doesn't have the Earth spinning on its own axis, then the Earth will not experience day and night and hence Kara should incorporate this idea into his story.

Use the definition of scalar product, a overscript right-arrow endscripts times b overscript right-arrow endscripts = ab cos θ,
makkiz [27]

Answer: \theta=cos^{-1}0.991=7.69^o

The following vectors have been given: \vec{a}=3.0\widehat{i}+3.0\widehat{j}+3.0\widehat{k}\\ \vec{b}=5.0\widehat{i}+7.0\widehat{j}+6.0\widehat{k}

The angle between these two vectors can be found by:

cos\theta=\frac{\vec{a}.\vec{b}}{||\vec{a}|| ||\vec{b}||}\\&#10;||\vec{a}=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2+a_z^2}

\vec{a}.\vec{b}=a_xb_x+a_yb_y+a_zb_z\\ \vec{a}.\vec{b}=3\times5+3\times7+3\times6=15+21+18=54

||\vec{a}||=\sqrt{3^2+3^2+3^2}=\sqrt{27}\\ ||\vec{b}||=\sqrt{5^2+7^2+6^2}=\sqrt{110}

cos\theta=\frac{54}{\sqrt{27}\times\sqrt{110}}\\=0.991\\ \Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}0.991=7.69^o
