How does the Coriolis effect influence the direction of the Trade Winds in the Northern Hemisphere? Does it have the same effect

in the Southern Hemisphere?

Answer:

Part A

Coriolis effect is used to describe how objects which are not fixed to the ground are deflected as they travel over long distances due to the rotation of the Earth relative to the 'linear' motion of the objects

Due to the Coriolis effect the wind flowing towards the Equator from high pressure belts in the subtropical regions in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are deflected towards the western direction because the Earth rotates on its axis towards the east

Part B

In the Northern Hemispheres, the winds are known as northeasterly trade winds and in the Southern Hemisphere, they are known as the southeasterly trade wind. Therefore, Coriolis effect has the same effect on the direction of the Trade Winds in the Southern Hemisphere as it does in the Northern Hemisphere

A circular loop of wire with a radius of 15.0 cm and oriented in the horizontal xy-plane is located in a region of uniform magne
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The average emf that will be induced in the wire loop during the extraction process is 37.9 V

Explanation:

The average emf induced can be calculated from the formula

Emf = -N\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}

Where N is the number of turns

\Delta \phi is the change in magnetic  flux

\Delta t is the time interval

The change in magnetic flux is given by

\Delta \phi = \phi _{f} - \phi _{i}

Where \phi _{f} is the final magnetic flux

and \phi _{i} is the initial magnetic flux

Magnetic flux is given by the formula

\phi = BAcos(\theta)

Where B is the magnetic field

A is the area

and \theta is the angle between the magnetic field and the area.

Initially, the magnetic field and the area are pointed in the same direction, that is, \theta = 0^{o}

From the question,

B = 1.5 T

and radius = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m

Since it is a circular loop of wire, the area is given by

A = \pi r^{2}

∴ A = \pi (0.15)^{2}

A = 0.0225\pi

∴\phi_{i}  = (1.5)(0.0225\pi)cos(0^{o} )

\phi_{i}  = (1.5)(0.0225\pi)

( NOTE: cos (0^{o}) = 1 )

\phi_{i}  = 0.03375\pi Wb

For \phi_{f}

The field pointed upwards, that is \theta = 90^{o}. Since cos (90^{o}) = 0

Then

\phi_{f} = 0

Hence,

\Delta \phi = 0- 0.03375\pi

\Delta \phi = - 0.03375\pi

From the question

\Delta t = 2.8 ms = 2.8 \times 10^{-3} s

Here, N = 1

Hence,

Emf = -N\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t} becomes

Emf = -(1)\frac{-0.03375\pi}{2.8 \times 10^{-3} }

Emf = 37.9 V

Hence, the average emf that will be induced in the wire loop during the extraction process is 37.9 V.
