Answer:

Effects of Interia

As a more familiar example of inertia, think about riding in a car. ... If the car comes to a sudden stop, your body tends to keep moving forward. When the car starts moving again, your body tends to stay at rest. You move forward because the car seat exerts an unbalanced force on your body.

Given the wave function: Y(x,t) = 5sin27(0.2x - 3t); (x = meters, t = sec.): What are the amplitude, frequency, wavelength, angu

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Explanation:

Y = 5 Sin27( .2x-3t)

= 5 Sin(5.4x - 81 t )

Amplitude = 5 m

Angular frequency ω = 81

frequency = ω / 2π

= 81 / (2 x 3.14 )

=12.89

Wave length λ = 2π / k ,

k = 5.4

λ = 2π / 5.4

= 1.163 m

Phase velocity =ω / k

= 81 / 5.4

15 m / s.

The wave is travelling in + ve x - direction.

The magnetic field direction and direction of induced current in a wire are related by the right hand grip rule. Since the magnetic field was upwards, the thumb points upwards and the fingers curl around it. When viewed from above, it is seen as a current flowing in the counter clockwise direction.
