Answer:

Option D

MA=5

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage is the  the ratio of the output force to the  input force hence

MA=\frac {Effort arm length}{Load arm length}

Substituting 15 inches for the effort arm length and 3 inches for the load arm length then we obtain the mechanical advantage as

MA=\frac {15}{3}=5

A coil has 400 turns and self-inductance 7.50 mH. The current in the coil varies with time according to i = 1680 mA2 cos [πt/(0.
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

(a) 1.58 V

(b) 0.0126 Wb

(c) 0.0493 V

Solution:

As per the question:

No. of turns in the coil, N = 400 turns

Self Inductance of the coil, L = 7.50 mH = 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\ H

Current in the coil, i = 1680cos[\frac{\pi t}{0.0250}] A

where

i_{max} = 1680\ mA = 1.680\ A

Now,

(a)  To calculate the maximum emf:

We know that maximum emf induced in the coil is given by:

e = \frac{Ldi}{dt}

e = L\frac{d}{dt}(1680)cos[\frac{\pi t}{0.0250}]

e = - 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\times \frac{\pi}{0.0250}\times \frac{d}{dt}(1680)sin[\frac{\pi t}{0.0250}]

For maximum emf, sin\theta should be maximum, i.e., 1

Now, the magnitude of the maximum emf is given by:

|e| = 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\times 1680\times 10^{- 3}\times \frac{\pi}{0.0250} = 1.58\ V

(b) To calculate the maximum average flux,we know that:

\phi_{m, avg} = L\times i_{max} = 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\times 1.680 = 0.0126\ Wb

(c) To calculate the magnitude of the induced emf at t = 0.0180 s:

e = e_{o}sin{\pi t}{0.0250}

e = 7.50\times 10^{- 3}\times sin{\pi \times 0.0180}{0.0250} = 2.96\times 10^{- 4} =0.0493\ V

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

b) a = -k / m x , c) d²x / dt² = - A w² cos (wt+Ф) , d) and e)  T = 2π √m / k

h)   a = - A w² cos (wt+Ф)

Explanation:

a) see free body diagram in the attachment

b) We write Newton's second law

          Fe = m a

          -k x = ma

           a = -k / m x

c) the acceleration is

         a = d²x / dt²

     

      If x = A cos wt

        v = dx / dt = -A w sin (wt +Ф)

        a = d²x / dt² = - A w² cos (wt+Ф)

d) we substitute in Newton's second law

        d²x / dt² = -k / m x

   

We call

       w² = k / m

e) substitute to find w

     -A w² cos (wt+Ф) = -k / m A cos (wt+Ф)

      w² = k / m

Angular velocity and frequency are related

       w = 2π f

       f = 1 / T

       

 We substitute

      T = 2π / w

      T = 2π √m / k

g)    v= - A w sin (wt+Ф)

h) acceleration is

       a = - A w² cos (wt+Ф)
