Answer:

a) θc = 44.21⁰.

b) θc = 41.14⁰

c)  θc = 40.36⁰

Explanation:

sin θ = \dfrac{n_2}{n_1}

For air,

n₂ = 1

so,

sin θ =  \dfrac{1}{n_1}

(a) fluorite : n₁ = 1.434⁰

sin θ = 0.697                   θc = 44.21⁰.

(b) crown glass: n₁ = 1.52⁰  

sin θ = 0.657                   θc = 41.14⁰.

(c) sodium chloride : n₁= 1.544⁰

sin θ = 0.647                   θc = 40.36⁰.

Two coils close to each other have a mutual inductance of 32 mH. If the current in one coil decays according to I=I0e−αt, where
fiasKO [112]

The emf induced in the second coil is given by:

V = -M(di/dt)

V = emf, M = mutual indutance, di/dt = change of current in the first coil over time

The current in the first coil is given by:

i = i₀e^{-at}

i₀ = 5.0A, a = 2.0×10³s⁻¹

i = 5.0e^(-2.0×10³t)

Calculate di/dt by differentiating i with respect to t.

di/dt = -1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t)

Calculate a general formula for V. Givens:

M = 32×10⁻³H, di/dt = -1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t)

Plug in and solve for V:

V = -32×10⁻³(-1.0×10⁴e^(-2.0×10³t))

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³t)

We want to find the induced emf right after the current starts to decay. Plug in t = 0s:

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³(0))

V = 320e^0

V = 320 volts

We want to find the induced emf at t = 1.0×10⁻³s:

V = 320e^(-2.0×10³(1.0×10⁻³))

V = 43 volts

A power plant produces 1000 MW to suply a city 40Km away.Current flows from the power plant on a single wire of resistance0.050
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The current in wire resistance 2Ω

a). 8696 A

b). fraction power 15.1% a 115kV

Explanation:

Resistance

R=0.05Ω/Km*40km

R=2Ω

P=1000 MW

a).

P=V*I\\I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{1000x10^{6}W}{115x10^{3}k }  =8696.65A

Using law ohm

b).

V=I*R\\I=\frac{V}{R}

P=I*I*R\\P=I^{2} *R\\P=8696.65^{2}*2\\P=151.228 x10^{6}  W

e=\frac{151.228x10^{6} }{1000x10^{6} }*100= 15.12%
