Why would an counductor heat up soup?

1 answer:

6 0

example of a great insulator is a thermos. If you put soup in a thermos, you can open it later and enjoy warm soup on a cold winter day. The thermos insulates the soup, trapping the heat inside. Likewise, if you are playing soccer on a hot August afternoon, your thermos full of ice water stays refreshing and cold.

An electron moving with a velocity v⃗ = 5.0 × 107 m/s i^ enters a region of space where perpendicular electric and a magnetic fi

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Magnetic field, $B=2\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of electron, $v=5\times 10^7\ m/s$

It enters a region of space where perpendicular electric and a magnetic fields are present.

Magnitude of electric field, $E=10^4\ V/m$

We need to find the magnetic field will allow the electron to go through the region without being deflected.

Magnetic force on the electron, $F_m=qvB\ sin\theta$ .......(1)

Electric force on the electron, F = q E........(2)

From equation (1) and (2) we get:

$qvB\ sin\theta=qE$

$B=\dfrac{E}{v}$

$B=\dfrac{10^4\ V/m}{5\times 10^7\ m/s}$

B = 0.0002 T

$B=2\times 10^{-4}\ T$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A person weighs 60 kg. The area under the foot of the person is 150 cm2. Find the pressure exerted on the ground by the person.

9966 [12]

Answer:

40000 N/m²

Explanation:

Applying,

P = F/A................... Equation 1

Where P = Pressure, F = Force, A = Area.

From the question,

The force(F) exerted by the person's foot is thesame as it's weight.

F = W = mg............ Equation 2

Where m = mass of the person, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

P = mg/A................ Equation 3

Given: m = 60 kg, g = 10 m/s², A = 150 cm² = (150/10000) m² = 0.015 m²

Substitute these values into equation 3

P = (60×10)/0.015

P = 600/0.015

P = 40000 N/m²

A heavy anvil is suspended by a 0.75 m long steel wire that has a mass of 12 g. When the wire is plucked, it hums at its fundame

Dima020 [189]

Explanation:

It is given that,

length of steel wire, l = 0.75 m

Mass of the wire, m = 12 g = 0.012 kg

Fundamental frequency, f = 120 Hz

We need to find the mass of the anvil (m'). The fundamental frequency is given by :

$f=\dfrac{v}{2l}$
