Answer:

3.53 V

Explanation:

Electric charge: The is the rate of flow of electric charge along a conductor.

The S.I unit of electric charge is C.

Mathematically it is expressed as,

Q = It ............................ Equation 1

Where Q = electric charge, I = current, t = time.

I = Q/t.......................... Equation 2

From the question, charge flows through the conductor at the rate of 420 C/mim

Which means in 1 min, 420 C of charge flows through the conductor.

Hence,

Q = 420 C, t = 1 min = 60 seconds

Substitute into equation 2

I = 420/60

I =7 A

Also

P = VI......................... Equation 3

Where P = power, V = potential drop, I = current.

V = P/I................... Equation 4

Note: Power = Energy/time

From the question, P = 742/30 = 24.733 W. and I = 7 A.

Substitute these values into equation 4

V = 24.733/7

V = 3.53 V

Hence the potential drop across the conductor = 3.53 V

A uniform electric field of strength E points to the right. An electron is fired with a velocity v0 to the right and travels a d

zvonat [6]

Answer:

<u /> $D_l=d$ <u />

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

The Electric field of strength direction =Right

The Velocity of The First Electron=V_0

The Velocity of The Second Electron=V_0

Therefore

$V_{e1}=V_{e2}$

Generally, the equation for the Horizontal Displacement of electron is mathematically given by

$D=\frac{at^2}{2}$

Where

Acceleration is given as

$a=\frac{V_o}{2d}$

And

Time

$T=\frac{d}{v_0}$

Therefore horizontal displacement towards the left is

$D_l=\frac{(\frac{V_o}{2d})(\frac{d}{v_0})^2}{2}$

<u /> $D_l=d$ <u />

Shrinking Loop. A circular loop of flexible iron wire has an initial circumference of 168 cm , but its circumference is decreasi

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

103.1 V

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial circumference=C=168 cm

$\frac{dC}{dt}=-15cm/s$

Magnetic field,B=0.9 T

We have to find the magnitude of the emf induced in the loop after exactly time 8 s has passed since the circumference of the loop started to decrease.

Magnetic flux= $\phi=BA=B(\pi r^2)$

Circumference,C= $2\pi r$

$r=\frac{C}{2\pi}$

$r=\frac{168}{2\pi}$ cm

$\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\pi}\frac{dC}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\pi}(-15)=-\frac{15}{2\pi} cm/s$

$\int dr=-\int \frac{15}{2\pi}dt$

$r=-\frac{15}{2\pi}t+C$

When t=0

$r=\frac{168}{2\pi}$

$\frac{168}{2\pi}=C$

$r=-\frac{15}{2\pi}t+\frac{168}{2\pi}$

E= $-\frac{d\phi}{dt}=-\frac{d(B\pi r^2)}{dt}=-2\pi rB\frac{dr}{dt}$

$E=-2\pi(-\frac{5}{2\pi}t+\frac{168}{2\pi})B\times -\frac{15}{2\pi}$

t=8 s

B=0.9

$E=2\pi\times \frac{15}{2\pi}\times 0.9(-\frac{15}{2\pi}(8)+\frac{168}{2\pi})$

$E=103.1 V$

Explain why an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not. (Be sur

Firlakuza [10]

An egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not due to high momentum and acceleration.

<h3>Why an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break?</h3>

An egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not because the momentum and acceleration increases when the egg is thrown downward due to gravity but when we throw an egg in the vertical direction, they move against gravity so the momentum and acceleration decreases.

So we can conclude that an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not due to high momentum and acceleration.
