A compass originally points North; at this location the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field has a magnitude of 2e

-5 T. A bar magnet is aligned East-West, pointing at the center of the compass. When the center of the magnet is 0.25 m from the center of the compass, the compass deflects 70 degrees. What is the magnetic dipole moment of the bar magnet?

Answer:

μ =5.40 A-m²

Explanation:

The components of the net magnetic field are the magnetic field of the dipole and the magnetic field of Earth, then from the right triangle, the deflection angle is computed by

tan θ = Bdipole / Bearth ⇒ Bdipole = Bearth* tan θ

Bdipole = 2e-5 T*tan 70° = 5.49e-5 T

The magnetic field at the location of the compass due to the dipole has a magnitude

Bdipole = (μ₀/4π)(2μ/r³) ⇒ μ = Bdipole r³ / 2(μ₀/4π)

μ = (5.49e-5 T)(0.27m)³ / 2(1 × 10−7 T m² /(C m/s)) = 5.40 A-m²

A potential difference of 300 volts is applied to a 2.0-µf capacitor and an 8.0-µf capacitor connected in series. (a) What are t

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

a) Q1=Q2=480μC V1=240V V2=60V

b) Q1=96μC Q2=384μC V1=V2=48V

c) Q1=Q2=0C V1=V2=0V

Explanation:

Let C1 = 2μC and C2=8μC

For part (a) of this problem, we know that charge in a series circuit, is the same in C1 and C2. Having this in mind, we can calculate equivalent capacitance first:

$C=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{C1} +\frac{1}{C2} } = 1.6\mu C$

$Q_{T} = V_{T}*C_{T} = 480\mu C$

$V1 = \frac{Q1}{C1}=240V$

$V2 = \frac{Q2}{C2}=60V$

For part (b), the capacitors are in parallel now. In this condition, the voltage is the same for both capacitors:

$V1=V2$ So, $\frac{Q1}{C1} = \frac{Q2}{C2}$

Total charge is the same calculated for part (a), so:

$\frac{Qt - Q2}{C1} = \frac{Q2}{C2}$ Solving for Q2:

Q2 = 384μC Q1 = 96μC.

Therefore:

V1=V2=48V

For part (c), both capacitors would discharge, since their total voltage of 300V would by applied to a wire (R=0Ω). There would flow a huge amount of current for a short period of time, and capacitors would be completely discharged. Q1=Q2=0C V1=V2=0V

hot water is added to three times its mass of water at 10 degree celsius and the resulting temperature is 20 degrees Celsius Wha

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The initial temperature of the hot water is $50\; \rm ^{\circ} C$ (assuming that no heat was lost to the surroundings.)

Explanation:

Let $m$ denote the mass of the hot water.

The question states that the mass of the water at $10\; \rm ^\circ C$ is three times the mass of the hot water. If the mass of the hot water is $m$ , the mass of the cold water would be $3\, m$ .

Let $c$ denote the specific heat capacity of water. Let $m$ denote the mass of some water. The energy required to change the temperature of that much water by $\Delta T$ (without state change) would be:

$Q = c \cdot m \cdot \Delta T$ .

The temperature change for the cold water was:

$\Delta T_1 = 20\; \rm ^{\circ} C - 10\; \rm ^{\circ} C = 10\; \rm K$ .

Energy required to raise the temperature of water with mass $3\, m$ from $10\; \rm ^{\circ} C$ to $20\; \rm ^{\circ} C$ :

$Q_1 = c \cdot (3\, m) \cdot (10\; \rm K)$ .

On the other hand, if the initial temperature of the hot water is $t\; \rm ^{\circ} C$ (where $t > 20$ ,) the temperature change would be:

$\Delta T_2 = t\; {\rm ^{\circ} C} - 20\; {\rm ^{\circ} C} = (t - 20)\; {\rm K}$ .

Calculate the energy change involved:

$Q_2 = c \cdot m \cdot ((t - 20)\; \rm K)$ .

If no energy was lost to the surroundings, $Q_1$ should be equal to $Q_2$ . That is:

$c \cdot (3\, m) \cdot (10\; {\rm K}) = c\cdot m \cdot ((t - 20)\; {\rm K})$ .

Simplify and solve for $t$ :

$t - 20 = 30$ .

$t = 50$ .

Therefore, the initial temperature of the hot water would be $50\; {\rm ^\circ C}$ .
