Write the difference between distance and displacement

1 answer:

7 0

In order to determine distancetraveled, you must measure the length of the entire path taken by the object. ... Distance is a scalar quantity. Displacement is an object's change in position, only measuring from its starting position to the final position.

How does an electromagnet become permanent

love history [14]

A moving electrical charge produces a magnetic field and a moving magnetic field produces an electrical field. An electromagnet works by coiling a bunch of wire and spinning a couple of magnets around that wire at high speeds. When this occurs the magnets induce an electric current in the wire and hence the electricity production. Once the magnets stop spinning, the induced electrical field dissipates and the current stops flowing through the wire.

What is the difference between mutual flux, leakage flux and magnetizing flux

Lemur [1.5K]

In simple words, flux can be stated as the rate of flow of a fluid, radiant energy, or particles across a given area.

Explanation:

Mutual Flux:

The magnetic lines present in among two magnets or solenoid is mutual flux.
These are the lines in which the attraction and repulsion happens.
The SI unit of mutual flux is the Henry

Leakage Flux:

In simple words, it can be stated as the magnetic flux which does not follow the specially designed way in a magnetic circuit.
Leakage flux in the induction motor takes spot due to current runs through the essence of the induction motor.
The SI unit of Leakage flux is the Weber

Magnetizing flux

Magnetic flux is an analysis of the entire magnetic field which moves in a given field
In simple words can be defined as the Magnetic flux is what generates the field around a magnetic material.

The SI unit of magnetic flux is the Weber

The mass luminosity relation L  M 3.5 describes the mathematical relationship between luminosity and mass for main sequence sta

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

(a) 11.3 L

(b) 10 M

Explanation:

The mass-luminosity relationship states that:

Luminosity ∝ Mass^3.5

Luminosity = (Constant)(Mass)^3.5

So, in order to find the values of luminosity or mass of different stars, we take the luminosity or mass of sun as reference. Therefore, write the equation for a star and Sun, and divide them to get:

Luminosity of a star/L = (Mass of Star/M)^3.5 ______ eqn(1)

where,

L = Luminosity of Sun

M = mass of Sun

(a)

It is given that:

Mass of Star = 2M

Therefore, eqn (1) implies that:

Luminosity of star/L = (2M/M)^3.5

Luminosity of Star = (2)^3.5 L

Luminosity of Star = 11.3 L

(b)

It is given that:

Luminosity of star = 3160 L

Therefore, eqn (1) implies that:

3160L/L = (Mass of Star/M)^3.5

taking ln on both sides:

ln (3160) = 3.5 ln(Mass of Star/M)

8.0583/3.5 = ln(Mass of Star/M)

Mass of Star/M = e^2.302

Mass of Star = 10 M

Which of the following is the smallest conceivable amount of time that could pass between a lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse .

pickupchik [31]

The time required for a moon to orbit around the earth is about 27-28 days

In order for lunar eclipse to occur the line that should be formed is:
Sun-Earth-Moon
because earth is making shade on moon

in order for solar eclipse to occur the line is now:
Sun-Moon-Earth
because moon is making a shade on earth (blocking sun = solar eclipse)

Therefore moon needs to make half of its orbit to go from behind the earth to in front of the earth.

28/2 = 14

Answer is 14
