Presently, the speed of light in a vacuum is defined to be exactly 299,792,458 m/s (approximately 186,282 miles per second). . An early experiment to measure the speed of light was conducted by Ole Romer, a Danish physicist, in 1676. Using a telescope, Ole observed the motions of Jupiter and one of its moons, Io

A mountaintop is a height y above the level ground. A woman measures the angle of elevation of the mountaintop to be θ when she

valentina_108 [34]

Let t = Theta and p = Phi
Tan t = y/x Then x =y/Tant.
Tant = y/(x-d) x-d = y/Tanp
y/Tant - d = y/Tanp
y -d*Tanr = y*Tant/Tanp
y-y*Tant/Tanp = d*Tanr
y(1 - Tanr/Tanp = d*Tant

y = d*Tant/(1-Tant/Tanp)

A circular loop of radius 11.7 cm is placed in a uniform magnetic field. (a) If the field is directed perpendicular to the plane

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Magnetic field, B = 0.199 T

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of circular loop, r = 11.7 cm = 0.117 m

Magnetic flux through the loop, $\phi=8.6\times 10^{-3}\ T/m^2$
