Answer: $\theta =9.96^{\circ}$ North of west

Explanation:

Given

Plane wishes to fly in west

but wind with speed 33.9 km/h towards south obstructing its path

so plane must fly at an angle of \theta w.r.t west such that it final velocity is towards west

Plane absolute speed=195 km/h

To fly towards west velocity in Y direction should be zero

thus $195sin\theta =33.9$

$\theta =9.96^{\circ}$

so Plane should head towards $9.96^{\circ}$ North of west in order to fly in west.

So plane

actual velocity is

$v=-195cos9.96\hat{i}+195sin9.96\hat{j}$

A toroidal solenoid with mean radius r and cross-sectional area A is wound uniformly with N1 turns. A second toroidal solenoid w

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Mutual inductance, $M=2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H$

Explanation:

(a) A toroidal solenoid with mean radius r and cross-sectional area A is wound uniformly with N₁ turns. A second thyroidal solenoid with N₂ turns is wound uniformly on top of the first, so that the two solenoids have the same cross-sectional area and mean radius.

Mutual inductance is given by :

$M=\dfrac{\mu_oN_1N_2A}{2\pi r}$

(b) It is given that,

$N_1=550$

$N_2=290$

Radius, r = 10.6 cm = 0.106 m

Area of toroid, $A=0.76\ cm^2=7.6\times 10^{-5}\ m^2$

Mutual inductance, $M=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 550\times 290\times 7.6\times 10^{-5}}{2\pi \times 0.106}$

$M=0.0000228\ H$

or

$M=2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H$

So, the value of mutual inductance of the toroidal solenoid is $2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

The transverse standing wave on a string fixed at both ends is vibrating at its fundamental frequency of 250 Hz. What would be t

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

fundamental frequency, f = 250 Hz

Let T be the tension in the string and length of the string is l ans m be the mass of the string initially.

the formula for the frequency is given by

$f=\frac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m}}$ .... (1)

Now the length is doubled ans the tension is four times but the mass remains same.

let the frequency is f'

$f'=\frac{1}{2\times 2l}\sqrt{\frac{4T\times 2l}{m}}$ .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

f' = √2 x f

f' = 1.414 x 250

f' = 353.5 Hz

A particle with a mass of 0.500 kg is attached to a horizontal spring with a force constant of 50.0 N/m. At the moment t = 0, th

svp [43]

a) $x(t)=2.0 sin (10 t) [m]$

The equation which gives the position of a simple harmonic oscillator is:

$x(t)= A sin (\omega t)$

where

A is the amplitude

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$ is the angular frequency, with k being the spring constant and m the mass

t is the time

Let's start by calculating the angular frequency:

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{50.0 N/m}{0.500 kg}}=10 rad/s$

The amplitude, A, can be found from the maximum velocity of the spring:

$v_{max}=\omega A\\A=\frac{v_{max}}{\omega}=\frac{20.0 m/s}{10 rad/s}=2 m$

So, the equation of motion is

$x(t)= 2.0 sin (10 t) [m]$

b) t=0.10 s, t=0.52 s

The potential energy is given by:

$U(x)=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

While the kinetic energy is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

The velocity as a function of time t is:

$v(t)=v_{max} cos(\omega t)$

The problem asks as the time t at which U=3K, so we have:

$\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{3}{2}mv^2\\kx^2 = 3mv^2\\k (A sin (\omega t))^2 = 3m (\omega A cos(\omega t))^2\\(tan(\omega t))^2=\frac{3m\omega^2}{k}$

However, $\frac{m}{k}=\frac{1}{\omega^2}$ , so we have

$(tan(\omega t))^2=\frac{3\omega^2}{\omega^2}=3\\tan(\omega t)=\pm \sqrt{3}\\$

with two solutions:

$\omega t= \frac{\pi}{3}\\t=\frac{\pi}{3\omega}=\frac{\pi}{3(10 rad/s)}=0.10 s$

$\omega t= \frac{5\pi}{3}\\t=\frac{5\pi}{3\omega}=\frac{5\pi}{3(10 rad/s)}=0.52 s$

c) 3 seconds.

When x=0, the equation of motion is:

$0=A sin (\omega t)$

so, t=0.

When x=1.00 m, the equation of motion is:

$1=A sin(\omega t)\\sin(\omega t)=\frac{1}{A}=\frac{1}{2}\\\omega t= 30\\t=\frac{30}{\omega}=\frac{30}{10 rad/s}=3 s$

So, the time needed is 3 seconds.

d) 0.097 m

The period of the oscillator in this problem is:

$T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{10 rad/s}=0.628 s$

The period of a pendulum is:

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where L is the length of the pendulum. By using T=0.628 s, we find

$L=\frac{T^2g}{(2\pi)^2}=\frac{(0.628 s)^2(9.8 m/s^2)}{(2\pi)^2}=0.097 m$

Liula [17]

Answer:

Most of the light and heavy elements are within a few astronomical units of the center.

Explanation:

The solar system is composed of different celestial bodies that are called small or large bodies, which revolve around the sun, all of these bodies are the elements of the solar system, which in addition to having different sizes, have different densities and weights from each other . One thing these elements have in common, regardless of their weight, that most of them have astronomical units of the center, which are units of length generated from the average distance from the Earth to the Sun.
