Answer:

Voltage= 9.4 V

Current= 1.3 A

Explanation:

Equivalent resistance will be the sum of two resistors hence

R_{equ}=2+7.2=9.2Ω

From Ohm's law, V=IR where I is current, R is equivalent resistance and V is voltage

Terminal voltage will be given by V=e-Ir where r is internal resistance, I is current and e is electromotive force.

From Ohm's law, current is given by dividing emf of the battery by the equivalent resistance hence

I=\frac {e}{R_{equ}}\\I=\frac {12}{9.2}=1.304347826A\approx 1.3A

This is the current through external resistor

Terminal voltage will be given by V=e-Ir hence V=12-(1.3*2)=9.4 V

Mary takes 6.0 seconds to run up a flight of stairs that is 102 meters long. If Mary's weight is 87 newtons, what power has Mary
fredd [130]

Answer: 1479watts

Explanation:

Power is defined as the energy expended or work done in a specific time.

Mathematically,

Power = Workdone/time taken

Since work done is force × distance

Power = force × distance/time

Force = Mary's weight = 87N

Distance = height of the flight = 102meters

Time = 6.0seconds

Substituting in the formula we have;

Power = 87 × 102/6

Power = 1,479watts

Note that the time must be in seconds before usage. If its given in minutes, you will have to convert to seconds

A circular loop of wire with a radius of 15.0cm and oriented in the horizontal xy-plane is located in a region of uniform magnet
Drupady [299]

Answer:

See answer

Explanation:

The area of the circular loop is given by:

A = \pi r^2

The magnetic flux is given by:

\phi = \int \vec{B} \cdot d\vec{A}

d\vec{A} is parallel to \vec{B} and \vec{B} is constant in magnitude and direction therefore:

\phi = \int \vec{B} \cdot d\vec{A}= \int BdAcos(0)= B\int dA= B*(\pi r^2)= \pi Br^2

Part A)

initially the flux is \phi =\pi B r^2

after the interval \Delta t= 2.4 [m/s]

the flux is

\phi = 0

now, the EMF is defined as:

\epsilon =- \frac{d \phi}{dt},

if we consider \Delta t= 2.4 [m/s] very small then we can re-write it as:

\epsilon =- \frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}

\Delta \phi = 0 - \pi B r^2=-\pi (1.7) (0.15)^2=-0.12

then:

\epsilon =- \frac{-0.12}{0.0024} = 50 [V]

Part B)

When looked down from above, the current flows counter clockwise, according to the right hand rule, if you place your thumb upwards (the direction of the magnetic field) and close your fingers, then the current will flow in the direction of your fingers.
