A 50-cm wire placed in an east-west direction is moved horizontally to the north with a speed of 2.0 m/s. the horizontal compone

nt of the earth's magnetic field at that location is 25 μt toward the north and the vertical component is 50μt downward. what is the emf induced between the ends of the wire?

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

<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

A rock dropped into a pond produces a wave that takes 11.3 s to reach the opposite shore, 26.5 m away. the distance between cons
Kay [80]
The wave takes 11.3 s to cover a distance of 26.5 m, so its speed is:
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{26.5 m}{11.3 s}=2.35 m/s

The distance between two consecutive crests is 3 m, and this corresponds to the wavelength of the wave. To find its frequency, we can use the relationship between the speed v, the wavelength \lambda and the frequency f:
f= \frac{v}{\lambda}= \frac{2.35 m/s}{3 m}=0.78 Hz
