Answer:

The coefficient of friction in the hall is 0.038

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the Parker, m = 73.2 kg

applied force on the parker, F = 123 N

frictional force, Fs = 27.4 N

the coefficient of friction in the hall = ?

frictional force is given by;

Fs = μN

Where;

μ is the coefficient of friction

N is normal reaction = mg

Fs = μmg

μ = Fs / mg

μ = (27.4) / (73.2 x 9.8)

μ = 0.038

Therefore, the coefficient of friction in the hall is 0.038

iragen [17]

Given Information:

Magnetic field = B = 1×10⁻³ T

Frequency = f = 72.5 Hz

Diameter of cell = d = 7.60 µm = 7.60×10⁻⁶ m

Required Information:

Maximum Emf = ?

Answer:

Maximum Emf = 20.66×10⁻¹² volts

Explanation:

The maximum emf generated around the perimeter of a cell in a field is given by

Emf = BAωcos(ωt)

Where A is the area, B is the magnetic field and ω is frequency in rad/sec

For maximum emf cos(ωt) = 1

Emf = BAω

Area is given by

A = πr²

A = π(d/2)²

A = π(7.60×10⁻⁶/2)²

A = 45.36×10⁻¹² m²

We know that,

ω = 2πf

ω = 2π(72.5)

ω = 455.53 rad/sec

Finally, the emf is,

Emf = BAω

Emf = 1×10⁻³*45.36×10⁻¹²*455.53

Emf = 20.66×10⁻¹² volts

Therefore, the maximum emf generated around the perimeter of the cell is 20.66×10⁻¹² volts

A screen is placed 1.20m behind a single slit. The central maximum in the resulting diffraction pattern on the screen is 1.40cm
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

2.8 cm

Explanation:

y_1 = Separation between two first order diffraction minima = 1.4 cm

D = Distance of screen = 1.2 m

m = Order

Fringe width is given by

\beta_1=\dfrac{y_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow \beta_1=\dfrac{1.4}{2}\\\Rightarrow \beta_1=0.7\ cm

Fringe width is also given by

\beta_1=\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{\beta_1}

For second order

\beta_2=\dfrac{m_2\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow \beta_2=\dfrac{m_2\lambda D}{\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{\beta_1}}\\\Rightarrow \beta_2=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}\beta_1

Distance between two second order minima is given by

y_2=2\beta_2

\\\Rightarrow y_2=2\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}\beta_1\\\Rightarrow y_2=2\dfrac{2}{1}\times 0.7\\\Rightarrow y_2=2.8\ cm

The distance between the two second order minima is 2.8 cm
