Answer:

The only difference between a planet and a dwarf planet is the area surrounding each celestial body. A dwarf planet has not cleared the area around its orbit, while a planet has.

Explanation:

the three criteria of the IAU for a full-sized planet are: It is in orbit around the Sun. It has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape). It has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit .

Answer:

The magnetic field in the System is 0.095T

Explanation:

To solve the exercise it is necessary to use the concepts related to Faraday's Law, magnetic flux and ohm's law.

By Faraday's law we know that

$\epsilon = \frac{NBA}{t}$

Where,

$\epsilon =$ electromotive force

N = Number of loops

B = Magnetic field

A = Area

t= Time

For Ohm's law we now that,

V = IR

Where,

I = Current

R = Resistance

V = Voltage (Same that the electromotive force at this case)

In this system we have that the resistance in series of coil and charge measuring device is given by,

$R = R_c + R_d$

And that the current can be expressed as function of charge and time, then

$I = \frac{q}{t}$

Equation Faraday's law and Ohm's law we have,

$V = \epsilon$

$IR = \frac{NBA}{t}$

$(\frac{q}{t})(R_c+R_d) = \frac{NBA}{t}$

Re-arrange for Magnetic Field B, we have

$B = \frac{q(R_c+R_d)}{NA}$

Our values are given as,

$R_c = 58.7\Omega$

$R_d = 45.5\Omega$

$N = 120$

$q = 3.53*10^{-5}C$

$A = 3.21cm^2 = 3.21*10^{-4}m^2$

Replacing,

$B = \frac{(3.53*10^{-5})(58.7+45.5)}{120*3.21*10^{-4}}$

$B = 0.095T$

Therefore the magnetic field in the System is 0.095T
