the north end to the south end.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Magnetic field lines from a bar magnet form lines that are closed. The direction of magnetic field is taken to be outward from the North pole of the magnet and in to the South pole of the magnet.
A magnetic field refers to the area surrounding a magnet where a force is exerted on certain objects. These lines are spread out of the north end of the magnet.
The magnetic field lines resemble a bubble.

Establishing a potential difference The deflection plates in an oscilloscope are 10 cm by 2 cm with a gap distance of 1 mm. A 10

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

t = 23.9nS

Explanation:

given :

Area A= 10 cm by 2 cm => 2 x 10^-2m x 10 x 10^-2m

distance d= 1mm=> 0.001

resistor R= 975 ohm

Capacitance can be calculated through the following formula,

C = (ε0 x A )/d

C = (8.85 x 10^-12 x (2 x 10^-2 x 10 x 10^-2))/0.001

C = 17.7 x 10^-12 (pico 'p' = 10^-12)

C = 17.7pF

the voltage between two plates is related to time, There we use the following formula of the final voltage

Vc = Vx (1-e^-(t/CR))

75 = 100 x (1-e^-(t/CR))

75/100 = (1-e^-(t/CR))

.75 = (1-e^-(t/CR))

.75 -1 = -e^-(t/CR)

-0.25 = -e^-(t/CR) --->(cancelling out the negative sign)

e^-(t/CR) = 0.25

in order to remove the exponent, take logs on both sides

-t/CR = ln (0.25)

t/CR = -ln(0.25)

t = -CR x ln (0.25)

t = -(17.7 x 10^-12 x 975) x (-1.38629)

t = 23.9 x $10^{-9$

t = 23.9ns

Thus, it took 23.9ns for the potential difference between the deflection plates to reach 75 volts

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(a) 89 m/s

(b) 11000 N

Explanation:

Note that answers are given to 2 significant figures which is what we have in the values in the question.

(a) Speed is given by the ratio of distance to time. In the question, the time given was the time it took the pulse to travel the length of the cable twice. Thus, the distance travelled is twice the length of the cable.

$v=\dfrac{2\times 620 \text{ m}}{14\text{ s}} = \dfrac{1240\text{ m}}{14\text{ s}}=88.571428\ldots \text{ m/s}= 89\text{ m/s}$
