If a light transmitts threw a material does the material absorb it?

1 answer:

When a light wave with a single frequency strikes an object, a number of things could happen. The light wave could be absorbed by the object, in which case its energy is converted to heat. The light wave could be reflected by the object. And the light wave could be transmitted by the object.

When the magnetic flux through a single loop of wire increases by , an average current of 40 A is induced in the wire. Assuming

Zielflug [23.3K]

COMPLETE QUESTION:

When the magnetic flux through a single loop of wire increases by 30 Tm^2 , an average current of 40 A is induced in the wire. Assuming that the wire has a resistance of 2.5 ohms , (a) over what period of time did the flux increase? (b) If the current had been only 20 A, how long would the flux increase have taken?

Answer:

(a). The time period is 0.3s.

(b). The time period is 0.6s.

Explanation:

Faraday's law says that for one loop of wire the emf $\varepsilon$ is

$(1). \: \: \varepsilon = \dfrac{\Delta \Phi_B}{\Delta t }$

and since from Ohm's law

$\varepsilon = IR$ ,

then equation (1) becomes

$(2). \: \:IR= \dfrac{\Delta \Phi_B}{\Delta t }.$

(a).

We are told that the change in magnetic flux is $\Phi_B = 30Tm^2$ , the current induced is $I = 40A$ , and the resistance of the wire is $R = 2.5\Omega$ ; therefore, equation (2) gives

$(40A)(2.5\Omega)= \dfrac{30Tm^2}{\Delta t },$

which we solve for $\Delta t$ to get:

$\Delta t = \dfrac{30Tm^2}{(40A)(2.5\Omega)},$

$\boxed{\Delta t = 0.3s}$ ,

which is the period of time over which the magnetic flux increased.

(b).

Now, if the current had been $I =20A$ , then equation (2) would give

$(20A)(2.5\Omega)= \dfrac{30Tm^2}{\Delta t },$

$\Delta t = \dfrac{30Tm^2}{(20A)(2.5\Omega)},$

$\boxed{\Delta t = 0.6 s\\}$

which is a longer time interval than what we got in part a, which is understandable because in part a the rate of change of flux $\dfrac{\Delta \Phi_B}{\Delta t}$ is greater than in part b, and therefore , the current in (a) is greater than in (b).

Does gravity always include the Earth’s pull or can it be between other objects?

padilas [110]

Well other planets have a gravitational pull that's what keep the planet's orbiting the sun. But the amount of gravity differs by mass.

Hope this helps :)
