Define unit vectors as follows:
\hat{i} is in the eastern direction.
\hat{j} is in the northern direction.

The position of the first bird is
\vec{a} = -3.6 \, \hat{i} + 1.8 \, \hat{j}

The position of the second bird is
\vec{b} = - 1.8 \, \hat{i} + 3.6 \, \hat{j}

Let θ = the angle between the net displacement vector for the two birds.
By definition,
\vec{a} . \vec{b} = |a| |b| cos\theta \\\\ \theta = cos^{-1} ( \frac{\vec{a}.\vec{b}}{|a||b|} )

\vec{a}.\vec{b} = (-3.6)(-1.8)+(3.6)(1.8) = 12.96
|a| =  \sqrt{3.24+12.96} =4.025
Similarly,
|b| = 4.025

Therefore
\theta = cos^{-1}  \frac{12.96}{4.025^{2}} =36.9^{o}

Answer:  36.9°

Answer:

a

The magnetic field strength is  B = 2 \mu T

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

             The  length line   above the ground  is  R = 20m

              The current of the line is  I  = 200A

              The voltage of the line is V = 110kV

Generally magnetic field strength is mathematically represented as

              B = \frac{\mu_o I}{2 \pi R}

Where  \mu_0 is the permeability of free space  = 4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2

             B = \frac{(4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2) *200}{2 \pi *20}

                = (2.0*10^{-7})[\frac{200}{20} ]

               = 2*10^{-6}T

              = 2 \mu T

Earths magnetic field is approximately given as 50 \mu T

   So the percentage would be

                           = \frac{Magnetic \ Field \ Intensity \ Of  \ Line}{Earth's \ Magnetic \ Field} * 100

                          = \frac{2 \mu T }{50 \mu T } * 100

                          =4%

A magnetic field is passing through a loop of wire whose area is 0.020 m2. The direction of the magnetic field is parallel to th
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

a) E = 0.0048 Volts

b)  dA/dt = - 0.002285 m²/s

Explanation:

Given:

Area, A = 0.020 m²

Rate of change of magnetic field, dB/dt = 0.24 T/s

a) The magnitude of the emf induced (E) is given as:

  E= A × (dB/dt)

  on substituting the values in the above equation, we get

E = (0.020 m²) × (0.24 T/s)

or

E = 0.0048 Volts

b) Now, The induced emf when both the area and the magnetic field is varying

we have

E = B(dA/dt) + A(dB/dt)

Now, for the given case induced emf is zero i.e E = 0 and magnetic field B = 2.1 T

thus,

0 = (2.1 T)(dA/dt) + (0.020 m2)(0.24 T/s)

dA/dt = - 0.002285 m²/s

Hence, the area should be decreased at the rate of 0.002285 m²/s

PLS HELP DUE IN 30 MINS!!! True or false: A large-amplitude pulse travels at a faster speed than a small-amplitude pulse. Explai
OLga [1]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Larger pulse with more energy means that the wave has large amplitude. As in the given question, both the waves are travelling in the same medium, hence their speeds will remain same and therefore the larger pulse will not overtake the smaller pulse. Remember the amplitude of a wave does not affect the speed at which the wave travels
