A solenoid with an air core has a magnetic field pointing along its axis in the positive x direction. This solenoid is then fill
trapecia [35]

Answer:

we can say that with a smaller magnitude , the field will point is in same direction

Explanation:

we have given that

solenoid is filled with a diamagnetic material and with air, magnetic field pointing along its axis in the positive x direction

so in small magnitude, the field will point is in same direction

2. An optical fibre is 1200km long and it takes light 0.006s to travel from one end to the other. Calculate the speed of light i
natita [175]
The average speed <em>appears to be</em> (distance) / (time) =

(length of the cable) / (time from when a pulse goes in until it comes out the other end) .

That's  1,200,000 meters/ 0.006 second  =  2 x 10^8 = <em>2 hundred million m/sec</em>

That figure is about 66.7% of the speed of light in vacuum.

The reason I went through all of this detail was to point out that this is
NOT necessarily the speed of light in this glass, for two reasons.

1).  The path of light through an optical fiber is not straight down the middle.  In the original fibers of 20 or 30 years ago, the light bounced back and forth off the inside walls of the fiber, and zig-zagged its way along the length.  In current modern fibers, it still zig-zags, but it's a more gentle, up-and-down curved path.  In either case, the distance covered by the light inside the fiber is more than the straight length of the cable, and the time it takes it to come out the other end is more than its actual speed inside the glass would have meant if it could have traveled straight through the pipe.

2).  This problem talks about an optical fiber that's 1,200km long.  There is loss in optical fiber, and you're NOT going to get light all the way through a single piece of it that's something like 745 miles long.  It takes electronic repeaters, "boosters", and regenerators every few miles to keep it going, and these devices add "latency" or time delay in the process of going through them.  That delay in the electronics shows up as apparent delay through the fiber-optic cable, and it makes the speed through the glass appear to be slower than it actually is.

At the start of a hockey game, the referee drops the puck between two players from opposing teams. Each player wants to push the
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

a) puck is subjected to both the forces of the hockey sticks in a horizontal direction,

b)the puck does not move since the sum of the forces is zero

c) changing the magnitude or direction of its applied force

Explanation:

a) The puck is subjected to both the forces of the hockey sticks in a horizontal direction, these forces are of equal magnitude and opposite direction since the puck is at rest.

In the direction of the y-axis (perpendicular to the ice) you have the weight of the disk and the normal to this weight that are also in equilibrium.

b) the puck does not move since the sum of the forces is zero, which implies that the forces of the hockey sticks are of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

c) the player has several ways to make the puck move

* slightly changing the angle of the club and therefore the direction of the force, in this case the disc comes out in the direction of this component

* inclined the stick slightly so that the force has a vertical component and the puck jumps in this direction

* Increasing the magnitude of the force so that the puck comes out in the opposite direction to the player

* The worst case, decreasing its force to zero and the disk comes out in its direction by the other force that had the same magnitude.

According to Newton's Brd Law, an object's momentum depends on it's velocity and mass, 4 dog-sled teams
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Team A has the greatest momentum

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is a vector quantity given by

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

In this problem, we have to compare the momenta of the different sleds.

We have:

A) Sled Team A 48 kg moving at 10m/s:

m = 48 kg

v = 10 m/s

p = (48)(10) = 480 kg m/s

B) Sled Team B 14 kg moving at 18m/s

m = 14 kg

v = 18 m/s

p = (14)(18) = 252 kg m/s

C) Sled Team C 28 kg moving at 12m/s

m = 28 kg

v = 12 m/s

p = (28)(12) = 336 kg m/s

D) Sled Team D 22 kg moving at 12m/s

m = 22 kg

v = 12 m/s

p = (22)(12) = 264 kg m/s

So, team A has the greatest momentum.
