Answer:
Heat capacity, Q = 781.74 Joules
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 12g
Initial temperature = 28.3°C
Final temperature = 43.87°C
Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184J/g°C
To find the quantity of heat needed?
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
Where;
Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
m represents the mass of an object.
c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
dt represents the change in temperature.
dt = T2 - T1
dt = 43.87 - 28.3
dt = 15.57°C
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Q = 781.74 Joules
Answer:
5 ohms
Explanation:
Given:
EMF of the ideal battery (E) = 60 V
Voltage across the terminals of the battery (V) = 40 V
Current across the terminals (I) = 4 A
Let the internal resistance be 'r'.
Now, we know that, the voltage drop in the battery is given as:
Therefore, the voltage across the terminals of the battery is given as:
Now, rewriting in terms of 'r', we get:
Plug in the given values and solve for 'r'. This gives,
Therefore, the internal resistance of the battery is 5 ohms.
Answer:
The direction of the magnetic force acting on a current-carrying wire in a uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the field.
The direction of the magnetic force acting on a current-carrying wire in a uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the current.
The magnetic force on the current-carrying wire is strongest when the current is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines.
Explanation:
The magnitude of the magnetic force exerted on a current-carrying wire due to a magnetic field is given by
(1)
where I is the current, L the length of the wire, B the strength of the magnetic field, the angle between the direction of the field and the direction of the current.
Also, B, I and F in the formula are all perpendicular to each other. (2)
According to eq.(1), we see that the statement:
<em>"The magnetic force on the current-carrying wire is strongest when the current is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines.</em>"
is correct, because when the current is perpendicular to the magnetic field, and the force is maximum.
Moreover, according to (2), we also see that the statements
<em>"The direction of the magnetic force acting on a current-carrying wire in a uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the field. "</em>
<em>"The direction of the magnetic force acting on a current-carrying wire in a uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the direction of the current. "</em>
because F (the force) is perpendicular to both the magnetic field and the current.
