Answer 2

Final answer:

The question deals with calculating time based on the change in position of a reflected sunlight ray due to Earth's rotation, with the Earth rotating at a rate of 15 degrees per hour.

Explanation:

The question concerns the reflection of light from a mirror and the calculation of time based on the Earth's rotation rate. The sunlight's path changes throughout the morning due to the Earth's rotation, which moves at a consistent rate of 15 degrees per hour. Given the different positions where the ray of sunlight strikes the floor at different times, we can calculate the angle change and then the time elapsed.

To find the time elapsed, we first determine the angular change between the two observations. The change in position on the floor from 3.75 m to 1.18 m corresponds to a difference in angle when considering the mirror as the vertex of a right triangle with the wall. Next, we apply the Earth's rotational rate to find the corresponding time.

Two massive, positively charged particles are initially held a fixed distance apart. When they are moved farther apart, the magnitude of their mutual gravitational force changes by a factor of n. Which of the following indicates the factor by which the magnitude of their mutual electrostatic force changes?
a. 1/n2
b. 1/n
c. n
d. n2

Answers

Final answer:

The electrostatic force between two positively charged particles changes by a factor of 1/n² when they are moved further apart, based on Coulomb's Law.

Explanation:

The subject matter of this question involves gravitational force and electrostatic force, which makes it a physics question. When two positively charged particles are moved further apart, the gravitational force between them changes by a factor of n. The electrostatic force between the two objects, however, obeys Coulomb's Law, which states that the force between two charges is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Therefore, when the particles are moved further apart, the magnitude of their electrostatic force changes by a factor of 1/n². So, the correct answer to this question would be Option A: 1/n².

The magnitude of the mutual electrostatic force between two charged particles that are moved farther apart changes by a factor of 1/n²

When two positively charged particles are moved farther apart, we know that the force between them, according to Coulomb's law, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Therefore, the magnitude of their mutual electrostatic force will change by a factor of 1/n²  when the distance between them is changed.

This is analogous to the gravitational force between two masses, which follows the same inverse-square law as electrostatic force does.

See attached file for diagram

Final answer:

The work done on the crate by the tension force when lifting it an additional 1.25 m with a force of 160 N is 200 joules.

Explanation:

The question is asking about the work done on a 14.5 kg crate by tension force when lifting the crate an additional 1.25 m with a tension force of 160 N.

To calculate the work done by the tension force, we use the formula:

Work = Force x Distance x cosθ

Since the force and displacement are in the same direction (theta = 0 degrees), the cosine term is 1, and the equation simplifies to:

Work = 160 N x 1.25 m

The work done on the crate by the tension force is:

Work = 200 joules (J)

In the sport of curling, large smooth stones are slid across an ice court to land on a target. Sometimes the stones need to move a bit farther across the ice and other times players want the stones to stop a bit sooner. Suggest a way to increase the kinetic friction between the stone and the ice so that the stone stops more quickly. Next, suggest a way to decrease the kinetic friction between the stone and the ice so that the stone slides farther along the ice before coming to a stop

Answers

Answer:

To increase kinetic friction, the amount of fine water droplets sprayed before the game is limited.

To reduce kinetic friction. increase the amount of fine water droplets during pregame preparation and sweeping in front of the curling stones.

Explanation:

In curling sports, since the ice sheets are flat, the friction on the stone would be too high and the large smooth stone would not travel half as far. Thus controlling the amount of fine water droplets sprayed before the game is limited pregame is necessary to increase friction.

On the other hand, reducing ice kinetic friction involves two ways. The first way is adding bumps to the ice which is known as pebbling. Fine water droplets are sprayed onto the flat ice surface. These droplets freeze into small "pebbles", which the curling stones "ride" on as they slide down the ice. This increases contact pressure which lowers the friction of the stone with the ice. As a result, the stones travel farther, and curl less.  

The second way to reduce the kinetic friction is sweeping in front of the large smooth stone. The sweeping action quickly heats and melts the pebbles on the ice leaving a film of water. This film reduces the friction between the stone and ice.

Final answer:

To increase kinetic friction in curling, roughen the ice or stone's bottom; to decrease it, smooth the ice or use lubricants, often achieved by sweeping.

Explanation:

To increase the kinetic friction between the curling stone and the ice, thereby causing the stone to stop more quickly, you could roughen the surface of the ice or the bottom of the stone. This creates more irregularities which bump against each other, leading to increased vibrations and energy conversion to heat and sound, thus slowing down the stone. Additionally, players could sweep less or not at all in front of the stone so that the ice surface remains rougher and produces more resistance.

To decrease the kinetic friction and allow the stone to slide farther across the ice before coming to a stop, you could smooth the surface of the ice or apply a substance to the bottom of the stone to make it more slippery. Sweeping the ice in front of the stone is a common technique used to achieve this; it melts and smooths the ice surface, reducing the irregularities that cause friction and allowing the stone to glide more easily.

106 grams of liquid water are in a cylinder with a piston maintaining 1 atm (101325 Pa) of pressure. It is exactly at the boiling point of water, 373.15 K. We then add heat to boil the water, converting it all to vapor. The molecular weight of water is 18 g/mol and the latent heat of vaporization is 2260 J/g.

Answers

The missing part of the question is;

1) How much heat is required to boil the water?

2) Assume that the liquid water takes up approximately zero volume, and the water vapor takes up some final volume Vf. You may also assume that the vapor is an ideal gas. How much work did the vapor do pushing on the piston?

3) How much did the water internal energy change?

Answer:

A) Q = 239.55 KJ

B) W = 18.238 KJ

C) ΔU = 221.31 J

Explanation:

We are giving;

Mass; m = 106 g

Latent heat of vaporization; L = 2260 J/g.

Molecular weight of water; M = 18 g/mol

Pressure; P = 101325 Pa

Temperature; T = 373.15 K

A) Formula for amount of heat required is;

Q = mL

Q = 106 x 2260

Q = 239560J = 239.55 KJ

B) number of moles; n = m/M

n = 106/18

n = 5.889 moles

Now, we know from ideal gas equation that;

PV = nRT

Thus making V the subject, we have; V = nRT/P

However, here we are told V is V_f. Thus, V_f = nRT/P

R is gas constant = 8.314 J/mol·K

Plugging in the relevant values ;

V_f = (5.889 x 8.314 x 373.15)/101325

V_f = 0.18 m³

Now, at constant pressure, work done is;

W = P(ΔV)

W = P(V_f - V_i)

W = 101325(0.18 - 0)

W = 101325 x 0.18

W = 18238.5J = 18.238 KJ

C) Change in water internal energy is gotten from;

ΔU = Q - W

Thus, ΔU = 239.55 KJ - 18.238 KJ

ΔU = 221.31 J

Problem: A disk of mass m and radius r is initially held at rest just above a larger disk of mass M and radius R that is rotating at angular speed wi. What is the final angular speed of the disks after the top one is dropped onto the bottom one and they stop slipping on each other? Note: the moment of inertia of a disk of mass M and radius R about an axis through its center and perpendicular to the disk is I = (1/2)MR2.

Answers

Answer:

The final angular velocity is [tex]w_f = \frac{MR^2}{MR^2+ mr^2} w[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of the first disk is  m

      The radius of the first  disk is  r

      The mass of  second disk is  M

      The radius of second disk is R

       The speed of rotation is w

       The moment of inertia of second disk is  [tex]I = \frac{1}{2} MR^2[/tex]

Since the first disk is at rest initially

        The initial angular momentum would be due to the second disk  and this is mathematically represented as

       [tex]L_i = Iw = \frac{1}{2} MR^2 w[/tex]

Now when the first disk is then dropped the angular momentum of the whole system now becomes

       [tex]L_f = (I_1 + I_2 ) w_f= ( \frac{1}{2} MR^2 + \frac{1}{2} m^2 r^2) w_f[/tex]

This above is because the formula for moment of inertia is the same for every disk

       According to the law  conservation of  angular momentum

                [tex]L_f = L_i[/tex]

    [tex]( \frac{1}{2} MR^2 + \frac{1}{2} m^2 r^2) w_f = \frac{1}{2} MR^2 w[/tex]

=>              [tex]w_f = \frac{\frac{1}{2} MR^2 w }{( \frac{1}{2} MR^2 + \frac{1}{2} m^2 r^2)}[/tex]

                  [tex]w_f = \frac{MR^2}{MR^2+ mr^2} w[/tex]

What is the final speed v f vf of the combined lump, expressed as a fraction of c ?

Answers

Final answer:

In an inelastic collision, two lumps of matter collide and stick together. The final speed of the combined lump is 0, meaning it comes to a complete stop after the collision.

Explanation:

In an inelastic collision, two lumps of matter collide and stick together. The final speed of the combined lump can be determined by applying the principles of conservation of momentum and the relativistic addition of velocities.

Let's calculate the final speed of the combined lump using the given information:

Mass of each lump (m) = 1.500 kg
Speed of each lump (v) = 0.930c


Using the relativistic addition of velocities formula:

vf = (v1 + v2) / (1 + (v1 * v2 / c2))


Plugging in the given values:

vf = (0.930c + (-0.930c)) / (1 + (0.930c * (-0.930c) / c2))

vf = 0

Therefore, the final speed (vf) of the combined lump is 0, which means it comes to a complete stop after the inelastic collision.

This part of the problem applies to any road surface, so the value of h is not known. Suppose you are driving at 70 miles per hour but, because of approaching darkness, you wish to slow to a speed that will cut your emergency stopping distance in half. What should your new speed be?

Answers

49.5 miles per hour will be the new speed.

This problem can be resolved using one-dimensional kinematics: v² = v₀² - 2 a d

Let's use this equation to find the beginning speed of the vehicle. In the first example, the distance is half (d´ = ½ d), the vehicle's acceleration is the same, and we find the fine velocity zero 0 = v₀² - 2 a d a = v₀² / 2d.

v₀´² = 2 a d = 2 (v₀² / 2d) 0 = v₀´² - 2 a d´ d´ v₀´ = v₀ √ 1/2

Let's compute: v₀ = 49.5 miles per hour; v₀´ = 70 ra 0.5.

Consequently, 49.5 miles per hour will be the new speed.

P = Initial Pressure = ?

V = Initial Volume = 0.001 m³

N = No. of moles = 3

b = constant = 1.2 x 10⁻²⁸ m³

T = Temperature = 300 k

k = Gas Constant = 8.314 J/mol . k

Therefore,

P[0.001 m³ - (3)(1.2 x 10⁻²⁸ m³)] = (3 mol)(8.314 J/mol. k)(300 k)

P = (7482.6 J)/(0.001 m³)

What is the probability that a ondu tion ele tron in one wire arriving at the gap will pass through the gap into the other wire?

Answers

Answer: 1.3 ×10^-31

Explanation:

the required probability is P = e^(-2αL)

Firstly, evaluate (-2αL)

α= 1/hc √2mc^2 (U - E)

h= modified planck's constant

where,

(-2αL)

= -(2L)/(h/2π ) ×√2mc^2 (U - E)

= -(2L) / (hc^2/π )×√2mc^2 (U - E)

(hc^2/2pi) = 197*eV.nm (standard constant)

2*L = 8 nm

mc^2 = 0.511×10^6 eV

Where m = mass electron

C= speed of light

(-2αL) = [-8nm/(197 eV.nm)] × (1.022× 10^6 eV*×3 eV)^0.5

(-2αL) = -71.1

Probability = e^(-2αL) = e^-71.1 = 1.3 ×10^-31

Therefore, the probability that a ondu tion ele tron in one wire arriving at the gap will pass through the gap into the other wire 1.3 ×10^-31.

A 6.85-m radius air balloon loaded with passengers and ballast is floating at a fixed altitude. Determine how much weight (ballast) must be dropped overboard to make the balloon rise 114 m in 17.0 s. Assume a constant value of 1.2 kg/m3 for the density of air. Ballast is weight of negligible volume that can be dropped overboard to make the balloon rise.

Answers

Answer: 120 kg

Explanation:

Given

Radius of balloon, r = 6.85 m

Distance moved by the balloon, d = 114 m

Time spent in moving, t = 17 s

Density of air, ρ = 1.2 kg/m³

Volume of the balloon = 4/3πr³

Volume = 4/3 * 3.142 * 6.85³

Volume = 4/3 * 3.142 * 321.42

Volume = 4/3 * 1009.90

Volume = 1346.20 m³

Density = mass / volume ->

Mass = Density * volume

Mass = 1.2 * 1346.2

Mass = 1615.44 kg

Velocity = distance / time

Velocity = 114 / 17

Velocity = 6.71 m/s

If it starts from rest, 0 m/s, then the final velocity is 13.4 m/s

acceleration = velocity / time

acceleration = 13.4 / 17 m/s²

The mass dropped from the balloon decreases Mb and increases buoyancy

F = ma

mg = (Mb - m) * a

9.8 * m = (1615.44 - m) * 13.4/17

9.8m * 17/13.4 = 1615.44 - m

12.43m = 1615.44 - m

12.43m + m = 1615.44

13.43m = 1615.44

m = 1615.44 / 13.43

m = 120.29 kg

Answers

Answer:

0.1014 J

Explanation:

Considering the air resistance negligible kinetic energy is given by

K.E = (1/2) m v^2

K.E = 0.5 x 0.12 x (1.3)^2

K.E = 0.06 x 1.69

K.E = 0.1014 J

Final answer:

The 0.12 kg paper airplane flying at 1.3 m/s has a kinetic energy of 0.1014 joules, calculated using the formula KE = 0.5 × m × v^2.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a paper airplane can be calculated using the kinetic energy formula KE = 0.5 × m × v^2, where KE is kinetic energy, m is the mass of the object, and v is its velocity. For a 0.12 kg paper airplane flying at a speed of 1.3 m/s, the kinetic energy can be calculated as follows:

KE = 0.5 × 0.12 kg × (1.3 m/s)^2 = 0.1014 J

Therefore, the paper airplane has 0.1014 joules of kinetic energy.

Summarize ocean acidification in one sentence.

Answers

Answer:

The ocean absorbs a significant portion of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities, equivalent to about one-third of the total emissions for the past 200 years from fossil fuel combustion, cement production and land-use change (Sabine et al., 2004). Uptake of CO2 by the ocean benefits society by moderating the rate of climate change but also causes unprecedented changes to ocean chemistry, decreasing the pH of the water and leading to a suite of chemical changes collectively known as ocean acidification. Like climate change, ocean acidification is a growing global problem that will intensify with continued CO2 emissions and has the potential to change marine ecosystems and affect benefits to society.

The average pH of ocean surface waters has decreased by about 0.1 unit—from about 8.2 to 8.1—since the beginning of the industrial revolution, with model projections showing an additional 0.2-0.3 drop by the end of the century, even under optimistic scenarios (Caldeira and Wickett, 2005).1 Perhaps more important is that the rate of this change exceeds any known change in ocean chemistry for at least 800,000 years (Ridgewell and Zeebe, 2005). The major changes in ocean chemistry caused by increasing atmospheric CO2 are well understood and can be precisely calculated, despite some uncertainty resulting from biological feedback processes. However, the direct biological effects of ocean acidification are less certain

1 “Acidification” does not mean that the ocean has a pH below neutrality. The average pH of the ocean is still basic (8.1), but because the pH is decreasing, it is described as undergoing acidification.

The Committee on the Development of an Integrated Science Strategy for Ocean Acidification Monitoring, Research, and Impacts Assessment is charged with reviewing the current state of knowledge and identifying key gaps in information to help federal agencies develop a program to improve understanding and address the consequences of ocean acidification (see Box S.1 for full statement of task). Shortly after the study was underway, Congress passed another law—the Federal Ocean Acidification Research and Monitoring (FOARAM) Act of 2009—which calls for, among other things, the establishment of a federal ocean acidification program; this report is directed to the ongoing strategic planning process for such a program.

Although ocean acidification research is in its infancy, there is already growing evidence of changes in ocean chemistry and ensuing biological impacts. Time-series measurements and other field data have documented the decrease in ocean pH and other related changes in seawater chemistry (Dore et al., 2009).

A space transportation vehicle releases a 470-kg communications satellite while in a circular orbit 350 km above the surface of the Earth. A rocket engine on the satellite boosts it into an orbit 2350 km above the surface of the Earth. How much energy does the engine have to provide for this boost?

Answers

Answer:

E = 3.194 x 10⁹ J = 3.194 GJ

Explanation:

The formula for the absolute potential energy is:

U = - GMm/2r

where,

G = Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁺¹¹ N m²/kg²

M = mass of Earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ kg

m = mass of satellite = 470 kg

r = distance between the center of Earth and satellite

Thus, the energy required from engine will be difference between the potential energies.

E = U₂ - U₁

E = - GMm/2r₂ - (- GMm/2r₁)

E = (GMm/2)(1/r₁ - 1/r₂)

where,

r₁ = Radius of Earth + 350 km = 6371 km + 350 km = 6721 km = 6.721 x 10⁶ m

r₂=Radius of Earth + 2350 km=6371 km + 2350 km= 8721 km = 8.721 x 10⁶ m

therefore,

E = [(6.67 x 10⁺¹¹ N m²/kg²)(5.972 x 10²⁴ kg)(470 kg)/2](1/6.721 x 10⁶ m - 1/8.721 x 10⁶ m)

E = 3.194 x 10⁹ J = 3.194 GJ

If the incident intensity is kept constant:

1) What is the intensity of the light after it has passed through the stack if the second polarizer is removed?

2) What is the intensity of the light after it has passed through the stack if the third polarizer is removed?

Answers

Answer:

A) I_f3 = 27.58 W/cm²

B) I_f2 = 102.26 W/cm²

Explanation:

We are given;

-The angle of the second polarizing to the first; θ_2 = 21°

-The angle of the third  polarizing to the first; θ_1 = 61°

- The unpolarized light after it pass through the polarizing stack; I_u = I_3 = 60 W/cm² 

A) Let the initial intensity of the beam of light before polarization be I_p

Thus, when the unpolarized light passes through the first polarizing filter, the intensity of light that emerges would be given as;

I_1 = (I_p)/2

According to Malus’s law,

I = I_max(cos²Φ)

Thus, we can say that;

the intensity of light that would emerge from the second polarizing filter would be given as;

I_2 = I_1(cos²Φ1) = ((I_p)/2)(cos²Φ1)

Similarly, the intensity of light that will emerge from the third filter would be given as;

I_3 = I_2(cos²Φ1) = ((I_p)/2)(cos²Φ1)(cos²(Φ2 - Φ1)

Thus, making I_p the subject of the formula, we have ;

I_p = (2I_3)/[(cos²Φ1)(cos²(Φ2 - Φ1)]

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

I_p = (2*60)/[(cos²21)(cos²(61 - 21)]

I_p = 234.65 W/cm²

Now, when the second polarizer is removed, the third polarizer becomes the second and final polarizer so the intensity of light emerging from the stack would be given as;

I_f3 = (I_p/2)(cos²Φ2)

I_f3 = (234.65/2)(cos²61)

I_f3 = 27.58 W/cm²

B) Similarly, when the third polarizer is removed, the second polarizer becomes the final polarizer and the intensity of light emerging from the stack would be given as;

I_f2 = (I_p/2)(cos²Φ1)

I_f2 = (234.65/2)(cos²21)

I_f2 = 102.26 W/cm²

Answer:

If you need to measure much longer lengths - for example the length of a football pitch - then you could use a trundle wheel. You use it by pushing the wheel along the ground. It clicks every time it measures one metre.

You could employ a trundle wheel if you need to estimate considerably greater distances, like the size of a football field. By moving the wheels along the surface, you can use it. It makes a click sound each time it measures a meter.

What is football?

Football, commonly known as association soccer, is a sport in which two groups of 11 players attempt to advance the ball into the goal of the other team by using any component of their bodies other than their hands and arms.

Only the goalie is allowed to handle the ball, and only within the towns near the goal that is designated as the penalty area. The team with the most goals scored wins.

According to the number of players and spectators, football is the most watched sport in the world.

The sport may be played practically everywhere, from official football fields (pitches) to gyms, streets, school playground, parks, or beaches, thanks to its basic rules and necessary equipment. The Federation Internationale Football Association is the governing organization of football.

Answers

Answer:

Kinetic energy = 0.145 J

Explanation:

See the attached file for explanation.

Final answer:

Rotational kinetic energy of a spinning cube can be calculated using the formula KErot = 0.5*Iw². This scenario involves kinetic energy gained by both the cube and the unwinding string's hanging mass. The specific energy amount depends on certain parameters that are currently absent.

Explanation:

The question involves the calculation of the rotational kinetic energy of a spinning cube. The rotational kinetic energy (KErot) of an object with moment of inertia (I) and angular velocity (w) is given by the formula KErot = 0.5*Iw².

In this case, the cube picks up kinetic energy as it spins up, and the hanging mass also gains kinetic energy as the string unwinds. The total distance the string unwinds (L) also plays a role in the final rotational kinetic energy of the spinning cube.

However, the lack of specific parameters like the mass and angular velocity of the cube, as well as the mass of the hanging object in your question, makes it challenging to give a numerical answer.

(b) 7699.990192m/s.

(c)5484.3301s = 1.5234 hours.(extremely fast).

Explanation:

(a) Strength of gravitational field 'g' by definition is

[tex]g = \frac{M_{(earth)} }{r^2} G[/tex] , here G is Gravitational Constant, and r is distance from center of earth, all the values will remain same except r which will be radius of earth + altitude at which ISS is in orbit.

A loud factory machine produces sound having a displacement amplitude in air of 1.00 μmμm, but the frequency of this sound can be adjusted. In order to prevent ear damage to the workers, the maximum pressure amplitude of the sound waves is limited to 10.0 PaPa. Under the conditions of this factory, the bulk modulus of air is 1.30×105 PaPa . The speed of sound in air is 344 m/s
What is the highest-frequency sound to which this machine can be adjusted without exceeding the prescribed limit?

Answers

Answer:

f =3.4*10^3 hz

Since f is in the range of (20 Hz - 20,000 Hz] which is the range of audible frequencies, the frequency is audible.

Explanation:

The relation that describes the pressure amplitude for a sound wave is  

P_MAX = B*k*A                                              (1)  

Where the bulk modulus of the air is B = 1.30 x 10^5 Pa and the displacement  amplitude of the waves produced by the machine is 1.00 μmμm.  

Using (1) we can calculate k then we can use k to determine the wavelength  A of the wave, and remember that λ = 2π/k.  

So, substitute into (1) with 10 Pa for P_max, (1.30 x 10^5 Pa) for B and  

1 x 10^-6 m for A  

10 Pa = (1.30 x 10^5 Pa) x k x (1 x 10^-6 m)  

k = 62.5 m^-1

We can use the following relation to calculate the wavelength  

λ = 2π/k.  

λ = 0.100 m

Finally, the relation between the wavelength and the frequency of a sound  

wave is given by the following equation  

f = v/ λ

 =344/0.100 m

f =3.4*10^3 hz

Since f is in the range of (20 Hz - 20,000 Hz] which is the range of audible frequencies, the frequency is audible.

A uniform magnetic field passes through a horizontal circular wire loop at an angle 15.1∘ from the vertical. The magnitude of the magnetic field B changes in time according to the equation B(t)=(3.75 T)+(2.75 Ts)t+(−7.05 Ts2)t2 If the radius of the wire loop is 0.210 m, find the magnitude  of the induced emf in the loop when t=5.63 s.

Answers

Explanation:

Given that,

A uniform magnetic field passes through a horizontal circular wire loop at an angle 15.1∘ from the vertical, [tex]\theta=15.1^{\circ}[/tex]

The magnitude of the magnetic field B changes in time according to the equation :

[tex]B(t)=3.75+2.75 t-7.05 t^2[/tex]

Radius of the loop, r = 0.21 m

We need to find the magnitude of the induced emf in the loop when t=5.63 s. The induced emf is given by :

[tex]\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=\dfrac{-d(BA\cos \theta)}{dt}[/tex]

B is magnetic field

A is area of cross section

[tex]\epsilon=A\dfrac{-dB}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=\pi r^2\dfrac{-d(3.75+2.75 t-7.05 t^2)}{dt}\times \cos\theta\\\\\epsilon=\pi r^2\times(2.75-14.1t)\times \cos\theta[/tex]

At t = 5.63 seconds,

[tex]\epsilon=-\pi (0.21)^2\times(2.75-14.1(5.63))\times \cos(15.1)\\\\\epsilon=10.25V[/tex]

So, the magnitude of induced emf in the loop when t=5.63 s is 10.25 V.

The EMF generated at time t = 5.63 is 10.18V.

Magnetic flux and EMF:

Given a horizontal circular wire loop with a radius, r = 0.21m.

A time-dependent magnetic field B(t) = 3.75 + 2.75t -7.05t².

At an angle of θ = 15.1° to the area of the loop.

The magnetic flux passing through the loop is given by:

Ф = B(t)Acosθ

where A = πr² is the are of the loop.

Since the magnetic field is time-dependent, the magnetic flux through the loop changes with time, therefore an EMF is generated in the loop, given by:

[tex]E=-\frac{d\phi}{dt}\\\\E =-\frac{dB(t)}{dt}Acos\theta\\\\E=-\pi r^2cos\theta\frac{d}{dt}[ 3.75 + 2.75t -7.05t^2] \\\\E=\pi r^2cos\theta[14.10t-2.75]\\\\[/tex]

Interactive Solution 28.5 illustrates one way to model this problem. A 7.11-kg object oscillates back and forth at the end of a spring whose spring constant is 61.6 N/m. An observer is traveling at a speed of 2.79 × 108 m/s relative to the fixed end of the spring. What does this observer measure for the period of oscillation?

Answers

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 7.11 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 61.6 N/m

Speed of the observer, [tex]v=2.79\times 10^8\ m/s[/tex]

We need to find the time period of oscillation observed by the observed. The time period of oscillation is given by :

[tex]t_o=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}} \\\\t_o=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{7.11}{61.6}} \\\\t_o=2.13\ s[/tex]

Time period of oscillation measured by the observer is :

[tex]t=\dfrac{t_o}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}} }\\\\t=\dfrac{2.13}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(2.79\times 10^8)^2}{(3\times 10^8)^2}} }\\\\t=5.79\ s[/tex]

So, the time period of oscillation measured by the observer is 5.79 seconds.
