The magnetic field causes deflection of the needle of a compass . The electric current causes a magnetic field around the wire due to which the compass needle moves.

<h3> what is a solenoid?</h3>

A solenoid is an electric current-conducting coil of wire. An electromagnet built with a wire helical coil is known as a solenoid.

A magnetic field is created when an electric current is sent through the coil. When an electric current runs through a solenoid. It creates a magnetic field.

To learn more about the solenoid refer to the link ;

Tom has two pendulums with him. Pendulum 1 has a ball of mass 0.2 kg attached to it and has a length of 5 m. Pendulum 2 has a ba
mars1129 [50]

Given Information:

Pendulum 1 mass = m₁ = 0.2 kg

Pendulum 2 mass = m₂ = 0.6 kg

Pendulum 1 length = L₁ = 5 m

Pendulum 2 length = L₂ = 1 m

Required Information:

Affect of mass on the frequency of the pendulum = ?

Answer:

The mass of the ball will not affect the frequency of the pendulum.

Explanation:

The relation between period and frequency of pendulum is given by

f = 1/T

The period of pendulum is given by

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity and L is the length of the string

As you can see the period (and frequency too) of pendulum is independent of the mass of the pendulum. Therefore, the mass of the ball will not affect the frequency of the pendulum.

Bonus:

Pendulum 1:

T₁ = 2π√(L₁/g)

T₁ = 2π√(5/9.8)

T₁ = 4.49 s

f₁ = 1/T₁

f₁ = 1/4.49

f₁ = 0.22 Hz

Pendulum 2:

T₂ = 2π√(L₂/g)

T₂ = 2π√(1/9.8)

T₂ = 2.0 s

f₂ = 1/T₂

f₂ = 1/2.0

f₂ = 0.5 Hz

So we can conclude that the higher length of the string increases the period of the pendulum and decreases the frequency of the pendulum.

Calculate the radiative and collisional energy losses (in keV/micron) for a 1.9 MeV electron in lead and determine the rad./coll
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

During an energy transfer, the collision loss for an electron can be determined by using the formula:

Q = \dfrac{4mME }{(m+M)^2}

However; from the total stopping power & power loss of the electron;

\dfrac{radiational \ energy \ loss}{colisional \ energy \ loss } = \dfrac{ZE}{800}

where;

Z = atomic no. for lead = 82

E = 1.9 MeV

∴

radiational energy loss = collisional energy loss  =\dfrac{82 \times 1.9}{800}

= 0.19475

b)

Normally, the traditional lead shielding in its pure shape contains high brittleness. However, the functionality of this carbon group chemical element is useful for protection because it has an excessive density.

Initially, the conventional lead protection however reduces the mild clarity at the same moment as plexiglass is useful for light transmittance and readability.

Moreover, the traditional lead with its high density and thickness reduces observation features, in the meantime, the plexiglass is a whole lot higher than the stated.

Finally, plexiglass contains a high dimensional balance with an excessive dielectric constant.

slega [8]

Answer

Integral EdA = Q/εo =C*Vc(t)/εo = 3.5e-12*21/εo = 4.74 V∙m <----- A)

Vc(t) = 21(1-e^-t/RC) because an uncharged capacitor is modeled as a short.

ic(t) = (21/120)e^-t/RC -----> ic(0) = 21/120 = 0.175A <----- B)

Q(0.5ns) = CVc(0.5ns) = 2e-12*21*(1-e^-t/RC) = 30.7pC

30.7pC/εo = 3.47 V∙m <----- C)

ic(0.5ns) = 29.7ma <----- D)
