Answer:

The new self inductance is 3 times of the initial self inductance.

Explanation:

The self inductance of a solenoid is given by :

$L=\dfrac{\mu_oN^2 A}{L}$

Where

N is number of turns per unit length

A is area of cross section

l is length of solenoid

If length and number of coil turns are both tripled,

l' = 3l and N' = 3N

New self inductance is given by :

$L'=\dfrac{\mu_oN'^2 A}{L'}\\\\=\dfrac{\mu_o(3N)^2 A}{3L}\\\\=3\dfrac{\mu_oN^2 A}{L}\\\\=3L$

So, the new self inductance is 3 times of the initial self inductance.

Answer:

Only kinetic.

Explanation:

Potential energy means it has the potential to move. Not something already in motion.

A 2kg block has 70J of KE. It then travels 1.5 meters up a hill. As it travels up the hill friction does -12J of work on the blo

Answer:

v = 5.34[m/s]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This theorem tells us that the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work on or performed by a body must be equal to the mechanical energy in the final state.

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of energies, kinetic, potential, and elastic.

E₁ = mechanical energy at initial state [J]

$E_{1}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}+E_{elas}\\$

In the initial state, we only have kinetic energy, potential energy is not had since the reference point is taken below 1.5[m], and the reference point is taken as potential energy equal to zero.

In the final state, you have kinetic energy and potential since the car has climbed 1.5[m] of the hill. Elastic energy is not available since there are no springs.

E₂ = mechanical energy at final state [J]

$E_{2}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}$

Now we can use the first statement to get the first equation:

$E_{1}+W_{1-2}=E_{2}$

where:

W₁₋₂ = work from the state 1 to 2.

$E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\$

$E_{pot}=m*g*h$

where:

h = elevation = 1.5 [m]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

$70 - 12 = \frac{1}{2}*2*v^{2}+2*9.81*1.5$

$58 = v^{2} +29.43\\v^{2} =28.57\\v=\sqrt{28.57}\\v=5.34[m/s]$

Use this free body diagram to help you find the magnitude of the force F2 needed to keep this block in static equilibrium. WILL

oksian1 [2.3K]

Static equilibrium means that all forces are equal, so make this easiest you want to break F1 into it's horizontal and vertical components. As there are no other forces acting in the horizontal, we know the horizontal component of F1 is 40N. This allows the vertical component to be found using pythagorus theorem. After finding the vertical and horizontal components, you just have to add the vertical components to find the difference between the up and down.

The magnetising current in a transformer is rich in ______________ harmonic?

sukhopar [10]

The magnetizing current in a transformer is rich in 3rd harmonic. This is because harmonics are AC voltages and currents with frequencies that are generally higher.

A penny rides on top of a piston as it undergoes vertical simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 4.0cm. If the frequency is

aniked [119]

1) At the moment of being at the top, the piston will not only tend to push the penny up but will also descend at a faster rate at which the penny can reach in 'free fall', in that short distance. Therefore, at the highest point, the penny will lose contact with the piston. Therefore the correct answer is C.

2) To solve this problem we will apply the equations related to the simple harmonic movement, hence we have that the acceleration can be defined as

$a = -\omega^2 A$
