A metal detector used in airports is actually a large coil of wire carrying a small current. Explain how it detects a gun, even

Alexus [3.1K]

<u>Metal detectors work by transmitting an electromagnetic field from the search coil into the ground. Any metal objects (targets) within the electromagnetic field will become energised and retransmit an electromagnetic field of their own. The detector’s search coil receives the retransmitted field and alerts the user by producing a target response. metal detectors are capable of discriminating between different target types and can be set to ignore unwanted targets. </u>

1. Search Coil

The detector’s search coil transmits the electromagnetic field into the ground and receives the return electromagnetic field from a target.

2. Transmit Electromagnetic Field (visual representation only - blue)

The transmit electromagnetic field energises targets to enable them to be detected.

3. Target

A target is any metal object that can be detected by a metal detector. In this example, the detected target is treasure, which is a good (accepted) target.

How much work does this force do as the particle moves along the x-axis from x = 0 to x = l? express your answer in terms of the

nydimaria [60]

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= F0 L ( 1 - 1/e )

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Work done is given as the product of force and distance.

In this case;

Work done = ∫︎ F(x) dx

= F0 ∫︎ e^(-x/L) dx

= F0 [ -L e^(-x/L) ] between 0 and L

= F0 L ( 1 - 1/e )

Learning Goal: To review the concept of conservative forces and to understand that electrostatic forces are, in fact, conservati

CaHeK987 [17]

Explanation:

The electrostatic forces are conservative forces!

The mainly property of the conservative fields is $\vec{\nabla} \times \vec E=\vec 0$

In spherical coordinates the field's expression is:

$\vec E=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon _0 r^2} .\^r$

and the curl expression is:

$\nabla\times \vec E=\frac{1}{r^2{\sin}\,\theta}\left|\begin{matrix}\hat{r} & r\,\hat{\theta} & r\,{\sin}\,\theta\,\hat{\varphi} \\& & \\\frac{\partial}{\partial r} & \frac{\partial}{\partial \theta} & \frac{\partial}{\partial \varphi}\\ & & \\E_r & rE_\theta & r{\sin}\,\theta\, E_\varphi\end{matrix}\right|=(0, 0, 0)$

to find the expression for the potential function associated:

$\vec E=\vec \nabla . V, \Delta V= V_b-V_a=-\int _c \vec E.d\vec l=-\int _c E\^r.dr\^r=-\int _c Edr=\int \limits^a_b \frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon _0 r^2} dr= \frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon _0}.(\frac{1}{r}|^b_a)= \frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon _0}.(\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{a})$

In the nineteenth century, Gregor Mendel first determined some basic rules of genetics that have been observed throughout all ty

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Hi!

The correct option would be A) Mendel’s genetics states laws that are now part of the theory of biological evolution.

When Darwin proposed the idea of biological evolution, which revolved around the concept that favorable genes are naturally selected into a species to ensure survival, his theory was criticized as during that time there was the idea that individual traits of two parents would present themselves as a blend in the offspring.

Gregor Mendel's theory of inheritance supported Darwin's idea as it dealt with the transmission of traits in generations through entities called genes, which were present in pairs for a particular trait.

Hope this helps!
