If an object's mass is decreasing while a constant force is applied to the object, would its acceleration decrease, increase, or

remain the same?
Physics

Arlecino [84]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

With the decreasing object mass, the acceleration will also decrease.

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion infers the relation between force F, acceleration a and mass m of a body. It is expressed as:

F = ma

When force is constant, we get m α 1/a, that is mass is inversely proportional to the acceleration of the body.

Hence when object's mass decreases, the acceleration will increase. and vice versa

Moving a magnet inside a coil of wire will induce a voltage in the coil. How can the voltage in the coil be increased?
mr_godi [17]
As the magnet is moved inside a coil of wire, the number of lines of magnetic field passing through the coil changes. Faraday stated that : it is the change in the number of field lines passing through the the coil of wire that induces emf in the loop. Specifically, it is the rate of change in the number of magnetic field lines passing through the loop that determines the induced emf. There is a term called magnetic flux same as electric flux, this magnetic flux can be a measure of the number of field lines passing through a surface. It is given by ( Φ=ΣB. dA. Where B is magnetic field and dA is small elementary area). The induced emf is given by (ξ = dΦ/dt). This equation states that THE MAGNITUDE OF THE INDUCED CURRENT IN A CIRCUIT IS EQUAL TO THE RATE AT WHICH THE MAGNETIC FLUX THROUGH THE CIRCUIT IS CHANGING WITH TIME. So more rapid you move the coil, more will be the change in flux and hence more emf will be produced. So option D is the correct answer. I hope this long description will help you out.

Alex

Answer:

The amplitude  is  A =  90.2 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The frequency of when sound is approaching observer is   f = 392 Hz

     The frequency as the move away from observer  is  f_ a =  330 \ Hz

    The time between the pitch are t =  10 \ s

Here you are the observer and your friends are the source of the sound

The period is mathematically evaluated as

       T =  2 t

as it is the time to complete one oscillation which from on highest pitch to the next highest pitch

Now T can also be mathematically represented as

          T = \frac{2 \pi}{w}

Where  w is the angular velocity

=>   \frac{2 \pi}{w}  =  2 * 10

=>   w =  0.314 \ rad/sec

Now using Doppler Effect,

   The source of the sound is approaching the observer

The

          f = f_o (\frac{v}{v- wA} )

         392  = f_o (\frac{v}{v- wA} )

Where A is the amplitude

    So when the source is moving away from the observer

         f_a =  f_o (\frac{v}{v+ wA} )  

        330  =  f_o (\frac{v}{v+ wA} )  

Here  f_o is the fundamental frequency

Dividing the both equation  we have

           \frac{392}{330}  =  \frac{f_o(\frac{v}{v-wA} )}{f_o(\frac{v}{v+wA}}

           1.1878  = \frac{v+wA}{v-wA}

         1.1878 v -  1.1878 wA = v+wA

        1.1878 v = 2.1878 wA

=>     A =  \frac{(0.1878 * (330))}{(2.1878)* (0.314)}

         A =  90.2 \ m

7. A neutral aluminum rod is at rest on a foam insulating base. A negatively charged balloon is brought near one end of the rod
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

If a negatively charged balloon is brought near one end of the rod but not in direct contact, then <u>the negative charges on the balloon repel the same amount of negative charges on the end of the rod that is close to the balloon</u>, and the positive charges stay at the balloon-side of the rod. The total charge of the rod is still zero, but the distribution of the charges are now non-uniform.
