A 0.73-m aluminum bar is held with its length parallel to the east-west direction and dropped from a bridge. Just before the bar

hits the river below, its speed is 20 m/s, and the emf induced across its length is 7.9 x 10-4 V. Assuming the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field at the location of the bar points directly north, (a) determine the magnitude of the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field, and (b) state whether the east end or the west end of the bar is positive.

Answer:

A)  B = 5.4 10⁻⁵ T, B) the positive side of the bar is to the West

Explanation:

A) For this exercise we must use the expression of Faraday's law for a moving body

            fem = -  \frac{d \phi }{dt}

            fem = - \frac{d (B l y}{dt}= - B l v- d (B l y) / dt = - B lv

            B = - \frac{fem}{l \ v}

we calculate

             B = - 7.9 10⁻⁴ /(0.73 20)

             B = 5.4 10⁻⁵ T

B) to determine which side of the bar is positive, we must use the right hand rule

the thumb points in the direction of the rod movement to the south, the magnetic field points in the horizontal direction and the rod is in the east-west direction.

Therefore the force points in the direction perpendicular to the velocity and the magnetic field is in the east direction; therefore the positive side of the bar is to the West

Answer:

D. It has been demonstrated to be without exception under certain stated conditions.

Explanation:

A principle is simply a proposition based on some results from some experiments. A principle becomes a law when it gains strength. That is when other scientists support and back it.

A scientific law is a statement that describes a natural phenomenon and is not contradicted by repeated experiments over the time.

Sir Isaac Newton's law of gravitation stated "A gravitational force exists between all objects in the universe. This force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the distance between them."

His law explained that every body in the universe attracts every other body. It explained that it is not just Earth that pulls us towards it. But even sun and moon has their own gravitational pull and so does all other objects. It is just that the Gravitational pull of some objects is negligible.

Newton's law of Gravitation is considered a universal law because it is applicable to almost all the bodies in the universe and is demonstrated to be correct for them under certain conditions.

djverab [1.8K]

2ω is the resistance of the second wire if the resistance of the first is 4ω if two wires have the same length, but the second has twice the diameter of the first.

R= 4ω.

R = ρl/A

2d=r

R2=2ω

Resistance is the capacity of a conductor to obstruct the passage of an electric current through it. It is controlled by the interaction of the applied voltage and the electric current passing through it.

Conductors have very little resistance, whereas insulators have a significant amount of resistance. The resistance increases as the current flow decreases. Resistance is influenced by the properties and dimensions of the material (area of cross section)
