You are heading toward an island in your speed boat when you see a friend standing on the shore of the island. You sound the boa

t's horn. Is the wavelength of the sound your friend perceives greater than, less than, or equal to the wavelength that would be heard without any motion of the boat, and why?

Answer:

Greater than

Explanation:

The Wavelength will be higher than what will be heard without any motion on the boat due to the Doppler Effect, which is the change in the frequency of a sound wave whenever there's a relative motion between the source of the wave and observer. The amount of shift in frequency depends on the speed of the source towards the observer; the higher the velocity of the source, the higher the shift.

The angle θ is slowly increased. Write an expression for the angle at which the block begins to move in terms of μs.

Reika [66]

Answer:

$tan \theta = \mu_s$

Explanation:

An object is at rest along a slope if the net force acting on it is zero. The equation of the forces along the direction parallel to the slope is:

$mg sin \theta - \mu_s R =0$ (1)

where

$mg sin \theta$ is the component of the weight parallel to the slope, with m being the mass of the object, g the acceleration of gravity, $\theta$ the angle of the slope

$\mu_s R$ is the frictional force, with $\mu_s$ being the coefficient of friction and R the normal reaction of the incline

The equation of the forces along the direction perpendicular to the slope is

$R-mg cos \theta = 0$

where

R is the normal reaction

$mg cos \theta$ is the component of the weight perpendicular to the slope

Solving for R,

$R=mg cos \theta$

And substituting into (1)

$mg sin \theta - \mu_s mg cos \theta = 0$

Re-arranging the equation,

$sin \theta = \mu_s cos \theta\\\rightarrow tan \theta = \mu_s$

This the condition at which the equilibrium holds: when the tangent of the angle becomes larger than the value of $\mu_s$ , the force of friction is no longer able to balance the component of the weight parallel to the slope, and so the object starts sliding down.

A coil of wire containing N turns is in an external magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coil and it steadil

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The Resultant Induced Emf in coil is 4∈.

Explanation:

Given that,

A coil of wire containing having N turns in an External magnetic Field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coil which is steadily changing. An Emf (∈) is induced in the coil.

To find :-

find the induced Emf if rate of change of the magnetic field and the number of turns in the coil are Doubled (but nothing else changes).

So,

Emf induced in the coil represented by formula

∈ = $-N\frac{d\phi}{dt}$ ...................(1)

Where:

. $\phi = BAcos\theta$ { B is magnetic field }

{A is cross-sectional area}

. $N =$ No. of turns in coil.

. $\frac{d\phi}{dt} =$ Rate change of induced Emf.

Here,

Considering the case :-

$N1 = 2N$ & $\frac{d\phi1}{dt} = 2\frac{d\phi}{dt}$

Putting these value in the equation (1) and finding the new emf induced (∈1)

∈1 = $-N1\times\frac{d\phi1}{dt}$

∈1 = $-2N\times2\frac{d\phi}{dt}$

∈1 = $4 [-N\times\frac{d\phi}{dt}]$

∈1 = 4∈ ...............{from Equation (1)}

Hence,

The Resultant Induced Emf in coil is 4∈.
