An experiment is performed to determine how bats capture insects in the dark. A pair of microphones are set up on either end of

a long room with the bat being released on one end and an insect on the other. When the bat begins to chase the insect, the microphone near the bat hears a frequency of 79.79 kHz and the microphone on the other side of the room hears a frequency of 81.63kHz. a) (3pts) What is the speed of the bat

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Doppler's effect here .

original frequency = 79.79 kHz

apparent frequency due to movement of source ( bat ) = 81.63 Hz

Let the velocity of bat be v .

expression for apparent frequency can be given as follows

n = \frac{n_0V}{V-v}

n is apparent frequency , n₀ is original frequency , V is velocity of light and v is velocity of source of sound

Putting the values

81.63 = \frac{79.79\times 340}{340-v}

340-v = 332.33

v = 7.67 m /s

velocity of bat is 7.67 m /s .

A single loop of wire with an area of 0.0780 m2 is in a uniform magnetic field that has an initial value of 3.80 T, is perpendic
Katarina [22]

Answer:

The induced current is 26.7 mA

Explanation:

Given;

area of the loop, A = 0.078 m²

initial magnetic field, B₁ = 3.8 T

change in the magnetic field strength, dB/dt = 0.24 T/s

The induced emf is calculated as;

emf = - \frac{d \phi}{dt} \\\\emf = -\frac{dB.A}{dt} \\\\emf = A (\frac{dB}{dt} )\\\\emf = 0.078(0.24)\\\\emf = 0.0187 \ V

The resistance of the loop = 0.7 Ω

The induced current is calculated as;

V = IR\\\\I = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{emf}{R} = \frac{0.0187}{0.7} = 0.0267 \ A = 26.7 \ mA
