Solution :
The given figure is a loop of a wire with a resistor.
When the switch S is closed for long time and is suddenly opened, the direction of the induced current can be find out by using the rule of right hand screw. According to the right hand screw rule, the direction of the magnetic field at the loop is in the direction that points outwards. The strength of the current rapidly decreases as it is switch off and the magnetic flux that is linked with the loop wire will also decrease.
According to the Lenz's law, the direction of the induced current must be such the decrease in the magnetic flux. It means the direction of the magnetic field must be outwards and also normal to the plane of the screen. The direction of the induced anti clockwise or from right to left in the resistance.
Answer:
a) t = 746 s
b) t = 666 s
Explanation:
a)
- Total time will be the sum of the partial times between stations plus the time stopped at the stations.
- Due to the distance between stations is the same, and the time between stations must be the same (Because the train starts from rest in each station) we can find total time, finding the time for any of the distance between two stations, and then multiply it times the number of distances.
- At any station, the train starts from rest, and then accelerates at 1.1m/s2 till it reaches to a speed of 95 km/h.
- In order to simplify things, let's first to convert this speed from km/h to m/s, as follows:
- Applying the definition of acceleration, we can find the time traveled by the train before reaching to this speed, as follows:
- Next, we can find the distance traveled during this time, assuming that the acceleration is constant, using the following kinematic equation:
- In the same way, we can find the time needed to reach to a complete stop at the next station, applying the definition of acceleration, as follows:
- We can find the distance traveled while the train was decelerating as follows:
- Finally, we need to know the time traveled at constant speed.
- So, we need to find first the distance traveled at the constant speed of 26.4m/s.
- This distance is just the total distance between stations (3.0 km) minus the distance used for acceleration (x₁) and the distance for deceleration (x₃), as follows:
- x₂ = L - (x₁+x₃) = 3000 m - (316.8 m + 158.4 m) = 2525 m (6)
- The time traveled at constant speed (t₂), can be found from the definition of average velocity, as follows:
- Total time between two stations is simply the sum of the three times we have just found:
- t = t₁ +t₂+t₃ = 24 s + 95.6 s + 12 s = 131.6 s (8)
- Due to we have six stations (including those at the ends) the total time traveled while the train was moving, is just t times 5, as follows:
- tm = t*5 = 131.6 * 5 = 658.2 s (9)
- Since we know that the train was stopped at each intermediate station for 22s, and we have 4 intermediate stops, we need to add to total time 22s * 4 = 88 s, as follows:
- Ttotal = tm + 88 s = 658.2 s + 88 s = 746 s (10)
b)
- Using all the same premises that for a) we know that the only difference, in order to find the time between stations, will be due to the time traveled at constant speed, because the distance traveled at a constant speed will be different.
- Since t₁ and t₃ will be the same, x₁ and x₃, will be the same too.
- We can find the distance traveled at constant speed, rewriting (6) as follows:
- x₂ = L - (x₁+x₃) = 5000 m - (316.8 m + 158.4 m) = 4525 m (11)
- The time traveled at constant speed (t₂), can be found from the definition of average velocity, as follows:
- Total time between two stations is simply the sum of the three times we have just found:
- t = t₁ +t₂+t₃ = 24 s + 171.4 s + 12 s = 207.4 s (13)
- Due to we have four stations (including those at the ends) the total time traveled while the train was moving, is just t times 3, as follows:
- tm = t*3 = 207.4 * 3 = 622.2 s (14)
- Since we know that the train was stopped at each intermediate station for 22s, and we have 2 intermediate stops, we need to add to total time 22s * 2 = 44 s, as follows:
- Ttotal = tm + 44 s = 622.2 s + 44 s = 666 s (15)
