To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to the Hall Effect and Drift velocity, that is, at the speed that an electron reaches due to a magnetic field.
The drift velocity is given by the equation:
Where
I = current
n = Number of free electrons
A = Cross-Section Area
q = charge of proton
Our values are given by,
The hall voltage is given by
Where
B= Magnetic field
n = number of free electrons
d = distance
e = charge of electron
Then using the formula and replacing,
Answer: b) they are the areas where Earth's magnetic field is weakest
Explanation:
According to classical physics, a magnetic field always has two associated magnetic poles (north and south), the same happens with magnets. This is because for <em>classical physics</em>, naturally, magnetic monopoles can not exist.
In this context, Earth is similar to a magnetic bar with a north pole and a south pole. This means, the axis that crosses the Earth from pole to pole is like a big magnet.
Now, by convention, on all magnets the north pole is where the magnetic lines of force leave the magnet and the south pole is where the magnetic lines of force enter the magnet. Then, for the case of the Earth, the north pole of the magnet is located towards the geographic south pole and the south pole of the magnet is near the geographic north pole.
Being the magnetic poles the places where the Earth's magnetic field is weakest. And it is for this reason, moreover, that the magnetic field lines enter the Earth through its magnetic south pole (which is the geographic north pole).
Answer: 0.5 seconds
Explanation:
Given that:
Frequency of the George Washington Bridge F = 2.05 Hz
Period T = ?
Recall that frequency is the number of cycles a wave can complete in one second. Hence, frequency is the inverse of period.
i.e F = 1/T
2.05Hz = 1/T
T = 1/2.05Hz
T = 0.488 seconds (Rounded to the nearest tenth as 0.5seconds)
Thus, the period of the George Washington Bridge is 0.5 seconds
Explanation:
The Coulomb's law states that the force acting on two charges is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them . Mathematically, it is given by
Where
k is the electrostatic constant
q₁ and q₂ are charges
r is the distance between them.
The SI unit of electric force is Newton. It can be attractive or repulsive. The attraction or repulsion depend on charges. If both charges are positive, the force is repulsive and if both are opposite charges, the force is attractive.
Increasing the voltage will increase the current proportionately. (C)
That's just Ohm's Law:
<em>"The current through a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage across the circuit. The proportionality constant is the reciprocal of the circuit's resistance."</em>
