Nata [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that;

horizontal circle at a rate of 2.33 revolutions per second

the magnetic field of the Earth is 0.500 gauss

the baton is 60.1 cm in length.

the magnetic field is oriented at 14.42°

we wil get the area due to rotation of radius of baton is

$\Delta A = \frac{1}{2} \Delta \theta R^2$

The formula for the induced emf is

$E = \frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$

$\phi = \texttt {magnetic flux}$

$E=\frac{\Delta (BA) }{\Delta t}$

$=B\frac{\Delta A}{\Delta t}$

B is the magnetic field strength

substitute

$\texttt {substitute}\ \frac{1}{2} \Delta \theta R^2 \ \ for \Delta A$

$E=B\frac{(\Delta \theta R^3/2)}{\Delta t} \\\\=\frac{1}{2} BR^2\omega$

The magnetic field of the earth is oriented at 14.42

$\omega =2.33\\\\L=60.1c,\\\\\theta=14.42\\\\B=0.5$

we plug in the values in the equation above

so, the induce EMF will be

$E=\frac{1}{2} \times (B\sin \theta)R^2\omega\\\\E=\frac{1}{2} \times (B\sin \theta)(\frac{L}{2} )\omega$

$=\frac{1}{2} \times0.5gauss\times\frac{0.0001T}{1gauss} \times\sin 14.42\times(\frac{60.1\times10^-^2m}{2} )^2(2.33rev/s)(\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev} )\\\\=2.5\times10^-^5\times0.2490\times0.0903\times14.63982\\\\=2.5\times10^-^5\times0.32917\\\\=8.229\times10^-^6V$

If a sled has a mass of 4kg what is the force of gravity on the sled?

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravity pulls everything down at the same rate of 9.8 m/s/s. If you're looking for the normal force, which is the same as the weight of the object, we'll find that, just in case.

w = mg which says that the normal force/weight of an object is equal to its mass times the pull of gravity:

w = 4.0(9.8) so

w = 39N
