Answer:
128.9 N
Explanation:
The force exerted on the golf ball is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the ball, so we can write:
where
F is the force
is the change in momentum
is the time interval
The change in momentum can be written as
where
m = 0.04593 kg is the mass of the ball
u = 0 is the initial velocity of the ball
is the final velocity of the ball
Substituting into the original equation, we find the force exerted on the golf ball:
1. False
Explanation: it's exactly the opposite. In fact, Lenz's law states that the induced current and the induced emf in a conductor are generated in such a direction that opposes to the change in magnetic flux through the coil. This is summarized by the negative sign in the Faraday's Newmann Lenz law:
where is the emf induced and
is the rate of change of magnetic flux through the coil.
Lenz's law is a consequence of the law of conservation of energy. In fact, we have:
- If the magnetic flux through a coil is increasing, then the induced current has a direction such that the magnetic field generated by the coil is opposite to the direction of the external magnetic field, in order to decrease the total flux
- If the magnetic flux through a coil is decreasing, then the induced current has a direction such that the magnetic field generated by the coil is in the same direction as the external field, in order to increase the total flux
2. False
Explanation: the magnetic flux through a surface is given by
where
B is the magnitude of the magnetic field
A is the surface area
is the angle between the direction of B and the normal vector to the surface
As we see, the magnetic flux depends not only on B and A, but also on the orientation of the coil with respect to the magnetic field.
3. False
Explanation:
- Sound waves are mechanical waves: mechanical waves are waves consisting of oscillations of the particles in a medium. Due to their nature, therefore, mechanical waves can propagate only in the presence of a medium
- Electromagnetic waves are NOT mechanical waves: they consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Since em waves are not mechanical waves, they do NOT need a medium to propagate, since they can also travel through a vacuum; therefore the original statement is false.
