Answer:

At an angle of 30^{\circ}

Explanation:

Assume the river flows from East to West so for the swimmer to cross across it, assume he crosses it from West to East.

The resultant speed will be given by

R= \sqrt {10^{2}-5^{2}=\sqrt {75}\approx 8.66 km/h\\Direction=sin^{-1}\frac {5}{10}\approx 30^{\circ}

A 115-turn circular coil of radius 2.71 cm is immersed in a uniform magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coi
tester [92]

Answer:

80.6 mV

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Number of turns, N = 115

Radius of coil, r = 2.71 cm = 0.0271m

Time taken, t = 0.133s

Initial magnetic field, Bin = 50.1 mT = 0.0501 T

Final magnetic field, Bfin = 90.5 mT = 0.0905 T

Induces EMF is given as:

EMF = [(Bfin - Bin) * N * A] / t

EMF = [(0.0905 - 0.0501) * 115 * pi * 0.0271²] / 0.133

EMF = (0.0404 * 115 * 3.142 * 0.0007344) / 0.133

EMF = 0.0806 V = 80.6 mV

A real spring does not oscillate forever. Instead, it eventually comes to a stop. Does this violate the law of conservation of e
ss7ja [257]
It does not violate the law of conservation of energy. The oscillation stops when the energy is lost and the energy is lost because it becomes heat that is created by the air resistance and many other forces found in the surrounding of the oscillating spring.
