Answer:

Explanation:

A transverse wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction perpendicular to the direction that the wave moves. Suppose that a slinky is stretched out in a horizontal direction across the classroom and that a pulse is introduced into the slinky on the left end by vibrating the first coil up and down.

wo parallel conducting plates are separated by 10.0 cm, and one of them is taken to be at zero volts. (a) What is the magnitude

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

-18896.49 V/m

Explanation:

Distance between the two plates = 10 cm = 10 x $10^{-2}$ m = 0.1 m

Also, one of the plates is taken as zero volt.

a. The potential strength between the zero volt plate, and 7.05 cm (0.0705 m) away is 393 V

b. The potential strength between the other plate, and 2.95 cm (0.0295 m) away is 393 V

Potential field strength = -dV/dx

where dV is voltage difference between these points,

dx is the difference in distance between these points

For the first case above,

potential field strength = -393/0.0705 = -5574.46 V/m

For the second case ,

potential field strength = -393/0.0295 = -13322.03 V/m

Magnitude of the field strength across the plates will be

-5574.46 + (-13322.03) = -5574.46 + 13322.03 = -18896.49 V/m

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 100 m in 25 s?

larisa86 [58]

As per the question, the distance travelled by bobsled [s] = 100 m

The time taken by the bobsled to travel that distance [t] = 25 s

We are asked to calculate the speed of the bobsled.

The speed of the bobsled is calculated as -

$speed\ =\ \frac{distance}{time}$

$v\ =\ \frac{s}{t}$

$=\frac{100\ m}{25\ s}$

$=\ 4\ m/s$

Hence, the correct answer to the question is A. 4 m/s.

An AC generator has 80 rectangular loops on its armature. Each loop is 12 cm long and 8 cm wide. The armature rotates at 1200 rp

Sauron [17]

Answer: 28.96 V

Explanation:

Given

No of loops on the armature, N = 80

Length of the loop, l = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Width of the loop, b = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Speed of the armature, 1200 rpm

Magnetic field of the loop, B = 0.30 T

To solve this, we use the formula

V(max) = NBAω

Where,

A = area of loop

A = l*b = 0.12 * 0.08

A = 0.0096 m²

ω = 1200 rpm = 1200 * 2π/60 rad/s

ω = (1200 * 2 * 3.142) / 60

ω = 7540.8 / 60

ω = 125.68 rad/s

Substituting the values into the formula

V(max) = NBAω

V(max) = 80 * 0.30 * 0.0096 * 125.68

V(max) = 80 * 0.362

V(max) = 28.96 V

Therefore, the maximum output voltage of the generator would be 28.96 V
