The EMF does not depend on which of the following?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

When a wire of length L is moved with velocity v , perpendicular to magnetic field B , EMF will be produced at its two ends . EMF can be calculated with the help of following expression

EMF = BLv

As per this formula , EMF produced will not depend upon number of electrons in the magnetic field.

So B is the right choice.

(b) Figure 3.32 shows the orbit of a planet around the Sun. Compare the linear speed of the planet at positions X, Y and Z.
Viefleur [7K]

At Z ... slowest speed

At Y ... fastest speed

At X ... medium speed

Wherever it is in its orbit, the line from the planet to the Sun smears over the same amount of area every second.

That's Kepler's second law of planetary motion.

The reason this happens is: That's how gravity works. (A better explanation is available, but first you have to be able to twirl calculus and solid geometry in the air on long sticks.)

An object in motion will have a speed which is a scaler , or ( blank ) which is a vector .
mylen [45]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

Objects in motion usually have a speed which is scalar or velocity which is a vector.

A scalar quantity is one with magnitude but has no directional attribute.

A vector quantity is one with both magnitude and directional attribute.

Speed is a scalar quantity that describes the magnitude of motion a body accrues.

Velocity is a vector quantity that describes both the magnitude of motion and the direction of motion in a body.
