Answer:

42.9 cm

Explanation:

given,

speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

Frequency of tuning fork, f = 198 Hz

The length of the shortest air column closed at one end.

this is the case of the standing wave.

L = N λ

N = the number of complete sine waves in the standing wave.

The standing wave in the problem is the first harmonic of a pipe open at one end.

N = 1/4

we know,

v = f λ

340 = 198 x λ

λ = 1.717 m

now,

L = N λ

L = \dfrac{1}{4}\times 1.717

L = 0.429\ m

   L = 42.9 cm

minimum length of the required pipe is 42.9 cm.

If the voltage across a circuit of constant resistance is doubled, the power dissipated by that circuit will
densk [106]

Answer:

The voltage will quadruple

Explanation:

The power dissipated in a circuit is given by

P=\frac{V^2}{R}

where

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

In this problem, the voltage across the circuit is doubled:

V' = 2V

So the new power dissipated is

P'=\frac{V'^2}{R}=\frac{(2V)^2}{R}=4\frac{V^2}{R}=4 P

so, the power dissipated will quadruple.

To see why an MRI utilizes iron to increase the magnetic field created by a coil, calculate the current needed in a 400-loop-per
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

B = 4.059 x 10¹⁵ T

Explanation:

Given,

Number of loop, N = 400

radius of loop, r = 0.65 x 10⁻¹⁵ m

Current, I = 1.05 x 10⁴ A

Magnetic field at the center of the loop

B = \dfrac{\mu_0NI}{2R}

B = \dfrac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 400 \times 1.05 \times 10^4}{2\times 0.65\times 10^{-15}}

B = 4.059 x 10¹⁵ T

A small plastic bead has been charged to -15nC.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

q = - 15 n C = - 15 x 10^-9 c

(a) d = 0.9 cm = 0.009 m

electric field on proton, E = Kq/d²

E = 9 x 10^9 x 15 x 10^-9 / (0.009)²

E = 1.67 x 10^6 N/C

Force on proton, F = charge on proton x Electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 1.67 x 10^6 = 2.67 x 10^-13 N

acceleration of proton, a = F / m

a = (2.67 x 10^-13) / (1.67 x 10^-27)

a = 1.6 x 10^14 m/s²

(B) the direction of acceleration is towards the bead, as the force is attractive.

(C) d = 0.9 cm = 0.009 m

electric field on proton, E = Kq/d²

E = 9 x 10^9 x 15 x 10^-9 / (0.009)²

E = 1.67 x 10^6 N/C

Force on electron, F = charge on electron x Electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 1.67 x 10^6 = 2.67 x 10^-13 N

acceleration of proton, a = F / m

a = (2.67 x 10^-13) / (9.1 x 10^-31)

a = 3 x 10^17 m/s²

(D) the direction of acceleration is away from the bead, as the force is repulsive.
