A 0.12-kg metal rod carrying a current of current 4.1 A glides on two horizontal rails separation 6.3 m apart. If the coefficien

t of kinetic friction between the rod and rails is 0.18 and the kinetic friction force is 0.212 N , what vertical magnetic field is required to keep the rod moving at a constant speed of 5.1 m/s

Answer:

The magnetic field is B  =  8.20 *10^{-3} \  T

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  mass of the metal rod is  m  = 0.12 \ kg

    The current on the rod is  I  = 4.1 \ A

    The distance of separation(equivalent to length of the rod ) is L   = 6.3 \ m

     The coefficient of kinetic friction is \mu_k  =  0.18

      The kinetic frictional force is  F_k  = 0.212 \ N

     The constant speed is v  = 5.1 \ m/s

Generally the magnetic force on the rod is mathematically represented as  

      F  =  B * I  *   L

For  the rod to move with a constant velocity the magnetic force must be equal to the kinetic frictional force so

        F_ k  =  B*  I  *  L

=>      B  =  \frac{F_k}{L  *  I  }

=>       B  =  \frac{0.212}{ 6.3   *  4.1   }

=>       B  =  8.20 *10^{-3} \  T

The dome of a Van de Graaff generator receives a charge of 0.00011 C. The radius of the dome is 5.2 m. Find the strength of the
wel

Answer:

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

K=8.98755×10^9Nm²/C²

Q=0.00011C

Radius of the sphere = 5.2m

g=9.8m/s²

1. The electric field inside a conductor is zero

εΦ=qenc

εEA=qenc

net charge qenc is the algebraic sum of all the enclosed positive and negative charges, and it can be positive, negative, or zero

This surface encloses no charge, and thus qenc=0. Gauss’ law.

Since it is inside the conductor

E=0N/C

2. Since the entire charge us inside the surface, then the electric field at a distance r (5.2m) away form the surface is given as

F=kq1/r²

F=kQ/r²

F=8.98755E9×0.00011/5.2²

F=36561.78N/C

The electric field at the surface of the conductor is 36561N/C

Since the charge is positive the it is outward field

3. Given that a test charge is at 12.6m away,

Then Electric field is given as,

E=kQ/r²

E=8.98755E9 ×0.00011/12.6²

E=6227.34N/C

A fixed electric space heater wired by a cable with an ampacity of 30 A should draw a maximum current of A. 30 A. B. 24 A. C. 15
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: The correct answer is option (A).

Explanation

Ampacity is defined as the maximum amount of the current carried by the conductor continuously without exceeding its temperature rating.

The ampacity of the wire of the heater is 30 A .And this means that wire is capable of conducting current of maximum amount of 30 Ampere through it without exceeding its temperature rating.

Hence, the correct answer is option is (A).

A student solving for the acceleration of an object has applied appropriate physics principles and obtained the expression a=a1
AlekseyPX

Explanation:

A student solving for the acceleration of an object has applied appropriate physics principles and obtained the expression :

a=a_1+\dfrac{F}{m}

Where

a_1=3\ m/s^2

F=12\ kg-m/s^2

m = 7 kg

So, the correct step for obtaining a common denominator for the two fractions in the expression in solving for a is (a) and the value of a is :

a=3+\dfrac{12}{7}

a=4.71\ m/s^2

Hence, the correct option is (a).

Can some one give me a conclusion for natural resources
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The exploitation of high-value natural resources—oil, gas, minerals, and timber—has often been a key factor in triggering, escalating, or sustaining violent conflicts around the globe. Competition over renewable resources such as land and water is on the rise, and environmental degradation, population growth, and climate change are compounding the challenges. Governments are therefore under increasing pressure to sustainably manage natural resources and resolve conflicts around their ownership, management, allocation, and control.
