Answer:

141.14098 secs

Explanation:

Time taken to see the lightning flash can be gotten from:

Velocity = distance/time

Time = distance/velocity

Time = (47 * 1000)/(3 * 10^8)

Time = 0.0001567 secs

Time taken to hear the thunder can be gotten from:

Velocity = distance/time

Time = distance/velocity

Time = (47 * 1000)/(333)

Time = 141.14114 secs

The time lapse between the lightning flash and the thunder will be:

141.14114 - 0. 0001567

= 141.14098 secs

What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?
Alona [7]
The correct answer is option B. i.e. 60 ohm.
The diagram is attached.

Since all the resistances are attached in series.
Hence, the total resistance will be the sum of all resistances.

R_total = R_1+R_2+ R_3
= 10+20+30
= 60 ohms.

Therefore, option c is correct answer.

(a) When t = 2.00 s, calculate the magnitude of the force exerted on an electron located at point P1, which is at a distance r1
Bezzdna [24]

The complete question is;

Within the green dashed circle shown in the figure below, the magnetic field changes with time according to the expression B = 6.00t³ − 1.00t² + 0.800, where B is in teslas, t is in seconds, and R = 2.20 cm.

(a) When t = 2.00 s, calculate the magnitude of the force exerted on an electron located at point P1, which is at a distance r1 = 5.7 cm from the center of the circular field region.

I have attached the figure the question talks about.

Answer:

Force = 4.62 x 10^(-20) N

Explanation:

First of all,

∮E.ds = (d/dt)∮B.dA

E∮ds = (d/dt)B∮dA

dA is the area where B is not equal to zero.

Thus,

E•2πr = (d/dt)B•πR²

|E| = [(d/dt)B•πR²]/2πr

F = |qE| = q[(d/dt)B•πR²]/2πr

Where q is charge on electron = 1.6 x 10^(-19) C

F is magnitude of force exerted on electron

F = 1.6 x 10^(-19)[(d/dt)B•R²]/2r

F = 0.8 x 10^(-19)[(d/dt)B•R²]/r

Now, dB/dt = 18t² - 2t

Thus,

F = 0.8 x 10^(-19)[(18t² - 2t)•R²]/r

Thus, at t=2 and R=2.2cm = 0.022m and r = 5.7cm = 0.057m

Thus,

F = 0.8 x 10^(-19)[(18x2²) - (2x2)•(0.022²)]/(0.057)

F = (0.8 x 10^(-19) x 0.032912)/0.057 = 4.62 x 10^(-20) N
