A solenoid 25.0 cmcm long and with a cross-sectional area of 0.550 cm^2 contains 460 turns of wire and carries a current of 90.0

ankoles [38]

Answer:

a. B = 0.20T

b. u = 17230.6 J/m³

c. E = 0.236J

d. L = 5.84*10^-5 H

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the magnetic field in the solenoid you use the following formula:

$B=\frac{\mu_o n i}{L}$ (1)

μo: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4π*10^-7 T/A

n: turns of the solenoid = 460

L: length of the solenoid = 25.0cm = 0.25m

i: current = 90.0A

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (1):

$B=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(460)(90.0A)}{0.25m}=0.20T$

The magnetic field in the solenoid is 0.20T

b. The magnetic permeability of air is approximately equal to the magnetic permeability of vacuum. To calculate the energy density in the solenoid you use:

$u=\frac{B^2}{2\mu_o}=\frac{(0.20T)^2}{2(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)}=17230.6\frac{J}{m^3}$

The energy density is 17230.6 J/m³

c. The total energy contained in the solenoid is:

$E=uV$ (2)

V is the volume of the solenoid and is calculated by assuming the solenoid as a perfect cylinder:

$V=AL$

A: cross-sectional area of the solenoid = 0.550 cm^2 = 5.5*10^-5m^2

$V=(5.5*10^{-5}m^2)(0.25m)=1.375*10^{-5}m^3$

Then, the energy contained in the solenoid is:

$E=(17230.6J/m^3)(1.375*10^{-5}m^3)=0.236J$

The energy contained is 0.236J

d. The inductance of the solenoid is calculated as follow:

$L=\frac{\mu_o N^2 A}{L}=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(460)^2(5.5*10^{-5}m^2)}{0.25m}\\\\L=5.84*10^{-5}H$

The inductance of the solenoid is 5.84*10^-5 H

Weekend A Assignment Differentiate between forced and damped oscillation

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

A damped oscillation means an oscillation that fades away with time while Forced oscillations occur when an oscillating system is driven by a periodic force that is external to the oscillating system.

Explanation:

Damping is the reduction in amplitude (energy loss from the system) due to overcomings of external forces like friction or air resistance and other resistive forces. ... When a body oscillates by being influenced by an external periodic force, it is called forced oscillation.

A small fish is dropped by a pelican that is rising steadily at 0.50 m/s.

natima [27]

Answer:

(a) 24.025 m/s. downward.

(b) 31 m

Explanation:

From Newton's equation of motion,

(a)

v = u + gt ................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, t = time.

Note: Let upward velocity be negative and downward be positive

Given: u = -0.5 m/s (upward), t = 2.5 s

Constant : g = 9.81 m/s²

Substitute into equation 1

v = 0.5+9.81(2.5)

v = -0.5+24.525

v = 24.025 m/s. downward.

(b) using

s₁ = ut + 1/2gt²......................... Equation 2

Where s₁ = distance at which the fish fall after being dropped by the pelican

Given: u = - 0.5 m/s, t = 2.5 s, g = 9.81 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

s₁ = -0.5(2.5) + 1/2(9.81)(2.5)²

s₁ = -1.25+30.656

s₁ = 29.41 m

also,

s₂ = vt ................ Equation 3

Where s₂ = the distance by which the pelican rise during this time.

Given: v = 0.5 m/s, t= 2.5 s

s₂ = 0.5(2.5)

s₂ = 1.25 m.

Note: Distance between the pelican and fish = s₁ + s₂

Distance between the pelican and fish = 29.41+1.25

Distance between the pelican and fish = 30.66

Distance between the pelican and fish ≈ 31 m

Can you explain hooks law in simple words?

dedylja [7]

Answer:

The extension of a material or a spring is its increase in length when pulled. Hooke’s Law says that the extension of an elastic object is directly proportional to the force applied to it. In other words:
