<span>The question is asking how many moons Venus, the planet, has and the answer is 0 -Venus doesn't have any moons. Another planet that doesn't have any moons is Mercury. Earth has one moon and Mars has two moons. Jupiter has 4 moons and the most impressive is Saturn, with its 53 confirmed moons (as claimed by Nasa)!</span>

A 5. 3 ft -ft-tall girl stands on level ground. The sun is 30 ∘ above the horizon. How long is her shadow?

slamgirl [31]

The trigonometric ratios are sine, cosine and tangent. We can use cosine to find the length of the shadow from the calculation as 1.7 ft.

<h3>What is trigonometric ratio?</h3>

The term trigonometric ratio has to do with sine, cosine and tangent which are used to solve problems that involve the right angled triangle.

Using the geometry of the right angle triangle, we can find the tangent of the angle 30 in order to obtain the length of the shadow.

Tan 30° = opp/3

opp = 3Tan 30°

opp = 1.7 ft

The length of the girl's shadow from the calculation is 1.7 ft.

A horizontal beam of light of intensity 25 W/m2 is sent through two polarizing sheets. The polarizing direction of the first mak

Zina [86]

Answer:

option (B)

Explanation:

Intensity of unpolarised light, I = 25 W/m^2

When it passes from first polarisr, the intensity of light becomes

$I'=\frac{I_{0}}{2}=\frac{25}{2}=12.5 W/m^{2}$

Let the intensity of light as it passes from second polariser is I''.

According to the law of Malus

$I'' = I' Cos^{2}\theta$

Where, θ be the angle between the axis first polariser and the second polariser.

$I'' = 12.5\times Cos^{2}15$

I'' = 11.66 W/m^2

I'' = 11.7 W/m^2

Physics B 2020 Unit 3 Test

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

When a charge is in motion in a magnetic field, the charge experiences a force of magnitude

$F=qvB sin \theta$

where here:

For the proton in this problem:

$q=1.602\cdot 10^{-19}C$ is the charge of the proton

v = 300 m/s is the speed of the proton

B = 19 T is the magnetic field

$\theta=65^{\circ}$ is the angle between the directions of v and B

So the force is

$F=(1.602\cdot 10^{-19})(300)(19)(sin 65^{\circ})=8.28\cdot 10^{-16} N$

The magnetic field produced by a bar magnet has field lines going from the North pole towards the South Pole.

The density of the field lines at any point tells how strong is the magnetic field at that point.

If we observe the field lines around a magnet, we observe that:

- The density of field lines is higher near the Poles

- The density of field lines is lower far from the Poles

Therefore, this means that the magnetic field of a magnet is stronger near the North and South Pole.

The right hand rule gives the direction of the force experienced by a charged particle moving in a magnetic field.

It can be applied as follows:

- Direction of index finger = direction of motion of the charge

- Direction of middle finger = direction of magnetic field

- Direction of thumb = direction of the force (for a negative charge, the direction must be reversed)

In this problem:

- Direction of motion = to the right (index finger)

- Direction of field = downward (middle finger)

- Direction of force = into the screen (thumb)

The radius of a particle moving in a magnetic field is given by:

$r=\frac{mv}{qB}$

where here we have:

$m=6.64\cdot 10^{-22} kg$ is the mass of the alpha particle

$v=2155 m/s$ is the speed of the alpha particle

$q=2\cdot 1.602\cdot 10^{-19}=3.204\cdot 10^{-19}C$ is the charge of the alpha particle

B = 12.2 T is the strength of the magnetic field

Substituting, we find:

$r=\frac{(6.64\cdot 10^{-22})(2155)}{(3.204\cdot 10^{-19})(12.2)}=0.366 m$

The cyclotron frequency of a charged particle in circular motion in a magnetic field is:

$f=\frac{qB}{2\pi m}$

where here:

$q=1.602\cdot 10^{-19}C$ is the charge of the electron

B = 0.0045 T is the strength of the magnetic field

$m=9.31\cdot 10^{-31} kg$ is the mass of the electron

Substituting, we find:

$f=\frac{(1.602\cdot 10^{-19})(0.0045)}{2\pi (9.31\cdot 10^{-31})}=1.23\cdot 10^8 Hz$

When a charged particle moves in a magnetic field, its path has a helical shape, because it is the composition of two motions:

1- A uniform motion in a certain direction

2- A circular motion in the direction perpendicular to the magnetic field

The second motion is due to the presence of the magnetic force. However, we know that the direction of the magnetic force depends on the sign of the charge: when the sign of the charge is changed, the direction of the force is reversed.

Therefore in this case, when the particle gains the opposite charge, the circular motion 2) changes sign, so the path will remains helical, but it reverses direction.

The electromotive force induced in a conducting loop due to electromagnetic induction is given by Faraday-Newmann-Lenz:

$\epsilon=-\frac{N\Delta \Phi}{\Delta t}$

where

N is the number of turns in the loop

$\Delta \Phi$ is the change in magnetic flux through the loop

$\Delta t$ is the time elapsed

From the formula, we see that the emf is induced in the loop (and so, a current is also induced) only if $\Delta \Phi \neq 0$ , which means only if there is a change in magnetic flux through the loop: this occurs if the magnetic field is changing, or if the area of the loop is changing, or if the angle between the loop and the field is changing.

The flux is calculated as

$\Phi = BA sin \theta$

where

B = 5.5 T is the strength of the magnetic field

A is the area of the coil

$\theta=18^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the field and the plane of the loop

Here the loop is rectangular with lenght 15 cm and width 8 cm, so the area is

$A=(0.15 m)(0.08 m)=0.012 m^2$

So the flux is

$\Phi = (5.5)(0.012)(sin 18^{\circ})=0.021 Wb$

Describe the full water cycle

sergey [27]

The water cycle (hydro-logic cycle), explains the constant motion of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The mass of water on Earth stays equally constant over time, although the severe portion of the water goes into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, saline water and atmospheric water is variable depending on a wide range of climatic variables. The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor.
