The net force exerted by this loop on the straight wire with the current is directed:

a) towards the loop.
b) away from the loop.
c) to the right of the page.
d) to the left of the page.
e) is zero.

Answer:

Correct option A.

The net force exerted by this loop on the straight wire with the current is directed TOWARDS THE LOOP

Explanation:

The magnetic field exerts a force on a current-carrying wire in a direction given by the right-hand rule 1 (the same direction as that on the individual moving charges). This force can easily be large enough to move the wire since typical currents consist of very large numbers of moving charges.

Given that,

The wire's current is directed towards the right of the page.

The rectangular loops carry current in a clockwise direction.

Since the 'dot' field is increasing hence the induced magnetic field is 'cross', i.e. into the page and by the right-hand rule, the induced current is clockwise.

Then the magnetic field is into the page.

Since was known that

F= iL×B

Note the current is through the wire. Then, the length is in direction of the current.

Note: this equation gives the magnetic force that acts on a length L of a straight wire carrying a current (i) and immersed in a uniform magnetic field (B), that is perpendicular to the wire.

So, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the current.

So using right hand rule,

F = i(L×B)

The length is to the right i.e. +x direction and the Magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane, i.e. in the +z direction

F = i (L•i × B•k)

F = iLB (i×k)

F = iLB•(-j)

F = -iLB•j

Then, the force is in the negative y-direction i.e. towards the loop.

Imagine a particular exoplanet covered in an ocean of liquid methane. At the surface of the ocean, the acceleration of gravity i
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure = 7 x 10⁴ Pa

force on  a disk-shaped region 2.00 m in radius at the surface of the ocean due to atmosphere  = pressure x area

= 7 x 10⁴ x 3.14 x 2 x 2

= 87.92 x 10⁴ N

b )

weight, on this exoplanet, of a 10.0 m deep cylindrical column of methane with radius 2.00 m

Pressure x area

height x density x acceleration of gravity x π r²

= 10 x 415 x 6.2 x 3.14 x 2 x 2

=323168.8 N

c ) Pressure at a depth of 10 m

atmospheric pressure + pressure due to liquid column

= 7 x 10⁴ + 10 x 415 x 6.2 ( hρg)

= 7 x 10⁴ + 10 x 415 x 6.2

(7 + 2.57 )x 10⁴ Pa

9.57 x 10⁴ Pa

mina [271]

Answer:

Induced emf, \epsilon=-A\dfrac{B_{max}e^{-t/\tau}}{\tau}

Explanation:

The varying magnetic field with time t is given by according to equation as :

B=B_{max}e^{-t/\tau}

Where

B_{max}\ and\ t are constant

Let \epsilon is the emf induced in the loop as a function of time. We know that the rate of change of magnetic flux is equal to the induced emf as:

\epsilon=-\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}

\epsilon=-\dfrac{d(BA)}{dt}

\epsilon=-A\dfrac{d(B)}{dt}

\epsilon=-A\dfrac{d(B_{max}e^{-t/\tau})}{dt}

\epsilon=A\dfrac{B_{max}e^{-t/\tau}}{\tau}

So, the induced emf in the loop as a function of time is A\dfrac{B_{max}e^{-t/\tau}}{\tau}. Hence, this is the required solution.

Thermodynamics
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

E = 3.8 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the object, m = 10 g = 0.01 kg

The heat of fusion of  aluminum is 380 kJ/kg

We need to find the energy required to melt the mass of the aluminium. It can be calculated as follows:

E = mL

So,

E = 0.01 × 380

E = 3.8 kJ

So, the energy required to melt the mass is equal 3.8 kJ.

Show how the alternative definition of power, found in your book, can be derived by substituting the definitions of work and spe
Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V
