The emf induced between the ends of the wire is about 50 μV

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Let's recall the induced emf formula for straight wire moving in magnetic field as follows:

\boxed {\varepsilon = B L v}

where:

<em>ε = induced emf ( V )</em>

<em>B = magnetic field strength ( T )</em>

<em>L = length of wire ( m )</em>

<em>v = speed of wire ( m/s )</em>

<em>B, L , v are mutually perpendicular</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

<u>Given:</u>

speed of wire = v = 2.0 m/s

length of wire = L = 50 cm

magnetic field strength = B = 50 μT → <em>vertical component</em>

<u>Asked:</u>

induced emf = ε = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

\varepsilon = B L v

\varepsilon = (50\ \mu T)(50 \ cm)(2.0 \ m/s)

\varepsilon = (50\ \mu T)(0.5 \ m)(2.0 \ m/s)

\varepsilon = (50\ \mu T)(1.0 \ m^2/s)

\varepsilon = 50\ \mu V

\texttt{ }

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

The emf induced between the ends of the wire is about 50 μV

When a wire is moved inside uniform magnetic field then its free electrons will experience magnetic force on it due to which wire will have potential difference at its ends.

Now here we will have magnetic field due to earth and wire is moving in this constant field so induced emf is given by formula

EMF = v.(B x L)

given that

B = 25\mu Tj - 50\mu Tk

v = 2 m/s j

L = 0.50 m (-i)

now by using the above formula we will have

EMF = 2(j) .(25\mu j - 50\mu k) x (-0.50 i)

EMF = 2(j) .(12.5\mu k + 25\mu j)

EMF = 50 \mu Volts

The near point of an eye is 56.0 cm. A corrective lens is to be used to allow this eye to focus clearly on objects at the distan
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Near point = 56 cm .

near point of healthy person = 25 cm

person suffers from long sightedness

convex lens will be required .

object distance u  = 25 cm

image distance   v = 56 cm

both will be negative as both are in front of the lens.

lens formula

I/v - 1 / u = 1/f

- 1/56 +1/25 = 1/f

- .01785 + .04 = 1/f

1/f  = .02215

f = 45.15 cm .

Which of the following properties of water help to explain why icebergs float in the ocean?
crimeas [40]
The reason why icebergs float in the ocean has to do with temperature. Icebergs are colder than the ocean water and therefore the cold water is less dense than the warm water and this causes the Iceberg to float.

How are the oscillating magnetic and electric fields of an electromagnetic wave positioned relative to each other?​
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves consist of both electric and magnetic field waves. These waves oscillate in perpendicular planes with respect to each other, and are in phase. The creation of all electromagnetic waves begins with an oscillating charged particle, which creates oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

A laser pointer used in a lecture hall emits light at 650 nm what is the frequency
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
<span>The formula for frequency is speed of light divided by wavelength. 650 nm represents the wavelength and 3x10^8 m/s is the speed of light. If you convert 650nm to meters you get 6.5x10^-7 m so you can divide using the formula above, giving you 4.6x10^14 1/s or Hz, the unit of frequency in Physics.</span>
