Answer:
a. 0.058°
b. 0.117°
Explanation:
a. The angular position of the first-order is:
[tex] d*sin(\theta) = m\lambda [/tex]
[tex] \theta = arcsin(\frac{m \lambda}{d}) = arcsin(\frac{1* 590 \cdot 10^{-9} m}{0.580 \cdot 10^{-3} m}) = 0.058 ^{\circ} [/tex]
Hence, the angular position of the first-order, two-slit, interference maxima is 0.058°.
b. The angular position of the second-order is:
[tex] \theta = arcsin(\frac{m \lambda}{d}) = arcsin(\frac{2* 590 \cdot 10^{-9} m}{0.580 \cdot 10^{-3} m}) = 0.12 ^{\circ} [/tex]
Therefore, the angular position of the second-order, two-slit, interference maxima is 0.117°.

Krishna and Seldon now try a homework problem. A policeman sitting in his unmarked police car sees an approaching motorcyclist go through a red light two blocks away. He turns on his siren at a frequency of 1000 Hz as the motorcyclist heads directly toward him at 61 mph (27.27 m/s). What frequency does the motorcyclist hear? (Enter your answer to at least the nearest integer. Assume the speed of sound in air is 331 m/s.) Hz What frequency does the motorcyclist hear when stopped with the police car approaching at 61 mph (27.27 m/s)? (Enter your answer to at least the nearest integer. Assume the speed of sound in air is 331 m/s.) Hz
Answer:
Explanation:
We shall apply formula of Doppler's effect
Here source is fixed and observer is approaching the source
f = f₀ x [(V + v ) / V ]
f₀ is original and f is apparent frequency , V is velocity of sound and v is velocity of motorcyclist .
f = 1000 x [(331 + 27.27 ) / 331 ]
= 1082 .4 Hz
This is the frequency heard by motorcyclist .
When police car is approaching him when he is stopped
f = f₀ x [V /(V - v ) ]
v is velocity of police car .
= 1000 x 331 / (331 - 27.27)
= 1090 Hz
To get an idea of the order of magnitude of inductance, calculate the self-inductance in henries for a solenoid with 1500 loops of wire wound on a rod 13 cm long with radius 2 cm
Answer:
The self-inductance in henries for the solenoid is 0.0274 H.
Explanation:
Given;
number of turns, N = 1500 turns
length of the solenoid, L = 13 cm = 0.13 m
radius of the wire, r = 2 cm = 0.02 m
The self-inductance in henries for a solenoid is given by;
[tex]L = \frac{\mu_oN^2A}{l}[/tex]
where;
[tex]\mu_o[/tex] is permeability of free space = [tex]4\pi*10^{-7} \ H/m[/tex]
A is the area of the solenoid = πr² = π(0.02)² = 0.00126 m²
[tex]L = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}(1500)^2*(0.00126)}{0.13} \\\\L = 0.0274 \ H[/tex]
Therefore, the self-inductance in henries for the solenoid is 0.0274 H.
A high school physics student claims her muscle car can achieve a constant acceleration of 10 ft/s/s. Her friend develops an accelerometer to confirm the feat. The accelerometer consists of a 1 ft long rod (mass=4 kg) with one end attached to the ceiling of the car, but free to rotate. During acceleration, the rod rotates. What will be the angle of rotation of the rod during this acceleration? Assume the road is flat and straight.
Answer: Ф = 17.2657 ≈ 17°
Explanation:
we simply apply ET =0 about the ending of the rod
so In.g.L/2sinФ - In.a.L/2cosФ = 0
g.sinФ - a.cosФ = 0
g.sinФ = a.cosФ
∴ tanФ = a/g
Ф = tan⁻¹ a / g
Ф = tan⁻¹ ( 10 / 32.17405)
Ф = tan⁻¹ 0.31080948777
Ф = 17.2657 ≈ 17°
Therefore the angle of rotation of the rod during this acceleration is 17.2657 ≈ 17°
If the magnetic field of an electromagnetic wave is in the +x-direction and the electric field of the wave is in the +y-direction, the wave is traveling in the
Answer:
The wave is travelling in the ±z-axis direction.
Explanation:
An electromagnetic wave has an oscillating magnetic and electric field. The electric and magnetic field both oscillate perpendicularly one to the other, and the wave travels perpendicularly to the direction of oscillation of the electric and magnetic field.
In this case, if the magnetic field is in the +x-axis direction, and the electric field is in the +y-axis direction, we can say with all assurance that the wave will be travelling in the ±z-axis direction.
When light of wavelength 233 nm shines on a metal surface the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is 1.98 eV. What is the maximum wavelength (in nm) of light that will produce photoelectrons from this surface
Answer:
λmax = 372 nm
Explanation:
First we find the energy of photon:
E = hc/λ
where,
E = Energy of Photon = ?
λ = Wavelength of Light = 233 nm = 2.33 x 10⁻⁷ m
c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
h = Planks Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s
Therefore,
E = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(2.33 x 10⁻⁷ m)
E = 8.5 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Now, from Einstein's Photoelectric Equation:
E = Work Function + Kinetic Energy
8.5 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = Work Function + (1.98 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV)
Work Function = 8.5 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 3.168 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Work Function = 5.332 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Since, work function is the minimum amount of energy required to emit electron. Therefore:
Work Function = hc/λmax
λmax = hc/Work Function
where,
λmax = maximum wavelength of light that will produce photoelectrons = ?
Therefore,
λmax = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(5.332 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)
λmax = 3.72 x 10⁻⁷ m
λmax = 372 nm
In a double-slit experiment the distance between slits is 5.0 mm and the slits are 1.4 m from the screen. Two interference patterns can be seen on the screen: one due to light of wavelength 450 nm, and the other due to light of wavelength 590 nm. What is the separation in meters on the screen between the m = 5 bright fringes of the two interference patterns?
Answer:
Δy = 1 10⁻⁴ m
Explanation:
In double-slit experiments the constructive interference pattern is described by the equation
d sin θ = m λ
In this case we have two wavelengths, so two separate patterns are observed, let's use trigonometry to find the angle
tan θ = y / L
as the angles are small,
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ
substituting
sin θ = y / L
d y / L = m λ
y = m λ / d L
let's apply this formula for each wavelength
λ = 450 nm = 450 10⁻⁹ m
m = 5
d = 5.0 mm = 5.0 10⁻³ m
y₁ = 5 450 10⁻⁹ / (5 10⁻³ 1.4)
y₁ = 3.21 10⁻⁴ m
we repeat the calculation for lam = 590 nm = 590 10⁻⁹ m
y₂ = 5 590 10⁻⁹ / (5 10⁻³ 1.4)
y₂= 4.21 10⁻⁴ m
the separation of these two lines is
Δy = y₂ - y₁
Δy = (4.21 - 3.21) 10⁻⁴ m
Δy = 1 10⁻⁴ m
A 750 gram grinding wheel 25.0 cm in diameter is in the shape of a uniform solid disk. (we can ignore the small hole at the center). when it is in use, it turns at a consant 220 rpm about an axle perpendicular to its face through its center. When the power switch is turned off, you observe that the wheel stops in 45.0 s with constant angular acceleration due to friction at the axle. What torque does friction exert while this wheel is slowing down?
Answer:
Torque = 0.012 N.m
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass of wheel;m = 750 g = 0.75 kg
Radius of wheel;r = 25 cm = 0.25 m
Final angular velocity; ω_f = 0
Initial angular velocity; ω_i = 220 rpm
Time taken;t = 45 seconds
Converting 220 rpm to rad/s we have;
220 × 2π/60 = 22π/3 rad/s
Equation of rotational motion is;
ω_f = ω_i + αt
Where α is angular acceleration
Making α the subject, we have;
α = (ω_f - ω_i)/t
α = (0 - 22π/3)/45
α = -0.512 rad/s²
The formula for the Moment of inertia is given as;
I = ½mr²
I = (1/2) × 0.75 × 0.25²
I = 0.0234375 kg.m²
Formula for torque is;
Torque = Iα
For α, we will take the absolute value as the negative sign denotes decrease in acceleration.
Thus;
Torque = 0.0234375 × 0.512
Torque = 0.012 N.m
An unstable particle at rest spontaneously breaks into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the first fragment is 3.00 10-28 kg, and that of the other is 1.86 10-27 kg. If the lighter fragment has a speed of 0.844c after the breakup, what is the speed of the heavier fragment
Answer: Speed = [tex]3.10^{-31}[/tex] m/s
Explanation: Like in classical physics, when external net force is zero, relativistic momentum is conserved, i.e.:
[tex]p_{f} = p_{i}[/tex]
Relativistic momentum is calculated as:
p = [tex]\frac{mu}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]
where:
m is rest mass
u is velocity relative to an observer
c is light speed, which is constant (c=[tex]3.10^{8}[/tex]m/s)
Initial momentum is zero, then:
[tex]p_{f}[/tex] = 0
[tex]p_{1}-p_{2}[/tex] = 0
[tex]p_{1} = p_{2}[/tex]
To find speed of the heavier fragment:
[tex]\frac{mu_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{c^{2}} } }=\frac{mu_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1.86.10^{-27}u_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }=\frac{3.10^{-28}.0.844.3.10^{8}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.844c)^{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1.86.10^{-27}u_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }=1.42.10^{-19}[/tex]
[tex]1.86.10^{-27}u_{1} = 1.42.10^{-19}.{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }[/tex]
[tex](1.86.10^{-27}u_{1})^{2} = (1.42.10^{-19}.{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } })^{2}[/tex]
[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38}.(1-\frac{u_{1}^{2}}{9.10^{16}} )[/tex]
[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38} -[2.02.10^{-38}(\frac{u_{1}^{2}}{9.10^{16}} )][/tex]
[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38} -2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1}[/tex]
[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2}+2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1} = 2.02.10^{-38}[/tex]
[tex]2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1} = 2.02.10^{-38}[/tex]
[tex]u^{2}_{1} = \frac{2.02.10^{-38}}{2.24.10^{-23}}[/tex]
[tex]u_{1} = \sqrt{9.02.10^{-62}}[/tex]
[tex]u_{1} = 3.10^{-31}[/tex]
The speed of the heavier fragment is [tex]u_{1} = 3.10^{-31}[/tex]m/s.
The positron has the same mass as an electron, with an electric charge of +e. A positron follows a uniform circular motion of radius 5.03 mm due to the force of a uniform magnetic field of 0.85 T. How many complete revolutions does the positron perform If it spends 2.30 s inside the field? (electron mass = 9.11 x 10-31 kg, electron charge = -1.6 x 10-19 C)
Answer:
5.465 × 10^10 revolutions
Explanation:
Formula for Magnetic Field = m. v/ q . r
M = mass of electron = mass of positron = 9.11 x 10^-31 kg,
radius of the positron = 5.03 mm
We convert to meters.
1000mm = 1m
5.03mm = xm
Cross multiply
x = 5.03/1000mm
x = 0.00503m
q = Electric charge = -1.6 x 10^-19 C
Magnetic field (B) = 0.85 T
Speed of the positron is unknown
0.85 = 9.11 x 10^-31 kg × v/ -1.6 x 10^-19 C × 0.00503
0.85 × 1.6 x 10^-19 C × 0.00503 = 9.11 x 10^-31 kg × v
v = 0.85 × -1.6 x 10^-19 C × 0.00503/9.11 x 10^-31 kg
v = 6.8408 ×10-22/ 9.11 x 10^-31 kg
v = 750911086.72m/s
Formula for complete revolutions =
Speed × time / Circumference
Time = 2.30s
Circumference of the circular path = 2πr
r =0.00503
Circumference = 2 × π × 0.00503
= 0.0316044221
Revolution = 750911086.72 × 2.30/0.0316044221
= 1727095499.5/0.0316044221
= 546541562294 revolutions
Approximately = 5.465 × 10^10 revolutions
Ellen says that whenever the acceleration is directly proportional to the displacement of an object from its equilibrium position, the motion of the object is simple harmonic motion. Mary says this is true only if the acceleration is opposite in direction to the displacement. Which one, if either, is correct
Answer:
Both Ellen and Mary are correct.
Explanation:
Both are correct, it's just different ways of saying the same thing.
When the acceleration is always opposite in direction to the displacement, then, the acceleration is directly proportional to the displacement of an object from its equilibrium position
Some stove tops are smooth ceramic for easy cleaning. If the ceramic is 0.630 cm thick and heat conduction occurs through an area of 1.45 ✕ 10−2 m2 at a rate of 500 J/s, what is the temperature difference across it (in °C)? Ceramic has the same thermal conductivity as glass and concrete brick.
Answer:
The temperature difference [tex]\Delta T = 258.6 \ ^ o\ C[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The thickness is [tex]\Delta x = 0.630 cm = 0.0063 m[/tex]
The area is [tex]A = 1.45 *10^{-2 } \ m^2[/tex]
The rate is [tex]P = 500 J/s[/tex]
The thermal conductivity is [tex]\sigma = 0.84J[\cdot s \cdot m \cdot ^oC ][/tex]
Generally the rate heat conduction mathematically represented as
[tex]P = \sigma * A * \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta x }[/tex]
=> [tex]\Delta T = \frac{P * \Delta x }{\sigma * A }[/tex]
=> [tex]\Delta T = \frac{ 500 * 0.00630 }{ 0.84 * 1.45 *10^{-2} }[/tex]
=> [tex]\Delta T = 258.6 \ ^ o\ C[/tex]
The following equation is an example of
decay.
181
185
79
Au →

2
He+
Answer:
Alp decay.
Explanation:
From the above equation, the parent nucleus 185 79Au produces a daughter nuclei 181 77 Ir.
A careful observation of the atomic mass of the parent nucleus (185) and the atomic mass of the daughter nuclei (181) shows that the atomic mass of the daughter nuclei decreased by a factor of 4. Also, the atomic number of the daughter nuclei also decreased by a factor of 2 when compared with the parent nucleus as shown in the equation given above.
This simply means that the parent nucleus has undergone alpha decay which is represented with a helium atom as 4 2He.
Therefore, the equation is an example of alpha decay.
When a mercury thermometer is heated, the mercury expands and rises in the thin tube of glass. What does this indicate about the relative rates of expansion for mercury and glass
Answer:
This means that mercury has a higher or faster expansion rate than glass
Explanation:
This is because When a container expands, the reservoir in the glass expands at the same rate as the glass. Thus, if there is something in a glass and both expand at the same rate, they have no change - but if the contents expand faster, they will fill the container to a higher level, and if the contents expand slower, they will fill the container to a lower level (relative to the new size of the container).
Light of wavelength 500 nm falls on two slits spaced 0.2 mm apart. If the spacing between the first and third dark fringes is to be 4.0 mm, what is the distance from the slits to a screen?
Answer:
L = 0.8 m
Explanation:
Since, the distance between first and third dark fringes is 4 mm. Therefore, the fringe spacing between consecutive dark fringes will be:
Δx = 4 mm/2 = 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m
but,
Δx = λL/d
λ = wavelength of the light = 500 nm = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m
d = slit spacing = 0.2 mm = 0.2 x 10⁻³ m
L = Distance between slits and screen = ?
Therefore, using the values, we get:
2 x 10⁻³ m = (5 x 10⁻⁷ m)(L)/(0.2 x 10⁻³)
L = (2 x 10⁻³ m)(0.2 x 10⁻³ m)/(5 x 10⁻⁷ m)
L = 0.8 m

a. 2.4 minutes
b. 0.79 minutes
c. 1.8 minutes
d. 3.0 minutes
Answer:
t = 1.81 min , the correct answer is c
Explanation:
This is a missile throwing exercise
The object is thrown horizontally, so its vertical speed is zero (voy = 0), let's use the equation
y = y₀ + [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] t - ½ g t²
the final height is y = 0 and the initial height is y₀ = 22000 m
0 = y₀ + 0 - ½ g t²
t = √y 2y₀ / g
let's calculate
t = √(2 22000 / 3.72)
t = 108.76 s
let's reduce to minutes
t = 108.76 s (1 min / 60 s)
t = 1.81 min
The correct answer is c
Suppose you are planning a trip in which a spacecraft is to travel at a constant velocity for exactly six months, as measured by a clock on board the spacecraft, and then return home at the same speed. Upon return, the people on earth will have advanced exactly 120 years into the future. According to special relativity, how fast must you travel
Answer:
I must travel with a speed of 2.97 x 10^8 m/s
Explanation:
Sine the spacecraft flies at the same speed in the to and fro distance of the journey, then the time taken will be 6 months plus 6 months
Time that elapses on the spacecraft = 1 year
On earth the people have advanced 120 yrs
According to relativity, the time contraction on the spacecraft is gotten from
[tex]t[/tex] = [tex]t_{0} /\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]
where
[tex]t[/tex] is the time that elapses on the spacecraft = 120 years
[tex]t_{0}[/tex] = time here on Earth = 1 year
[tex]\beta[/tex] is the ratio v/c
where
v is the speed of the spacecraft = ?
c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s
substituting values, we have
120 = 1/[tex]\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]
squaring both sides of the equation, we have
14400 = 1/[tex](1 - \beta ^{2} )[/tex]
14400 - 14400[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex] = 1
14400 - 1 = 14400[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex]
14399 = 14400[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex] = 14399/14400 = 0.99
[tex]\beta = \sqrt{0.99}[/tex] = 0.99
substitute β = v/c
v/c = 0.99
but c = 3 x 10^8 m/s
v = 0.99c = 0.99 x 3 x 10^8 = 2.97 x 10^8 m/s

What is the magnitude of the applied electric field inside an aluminum wire of radius 1.4 mm that carries a 4.5-A current
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The radius is [tex]r = 1.4 \ mm = 1.4 *10^{-3} \ m[/tex]
The current is [tex]I = 4.5 \ A[/tex]
Generally the electric field is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = \frac{J}{\sigma }[/tex]
Where [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the conductivity of aluminum with value [tex]\sigma = 3.5 *10^{7} \ s/m[/tex]
J is the current density which mathematically represented as
[tex]J = \frac{I}{A}[/tex]
Here A is the cross-sectional area which is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]
[tex]A = 3.142 * (1.4*10^{-3})^2[/tex]
[tex]A = 6.158*10^{-6} \ m^2[/tex]
So
[tex]J = \frac{ 4.5 }{6.158*10^{-6}}[/tex]
[tex]J = 730757 A/m^2[/tex]
So
[tex]E = \frac{ 730757}{3.5*10^{7} }[/tex]
[tex]E = 0.021 \ N/C[/tex]
A car travels at 45 km/h. If the driver breaks 0.65 seconds after seeing the traffic light turn yellow, how far will the car continue to travel before it begins to slow?

Maximum altitude to see(L)
Computation:
Resolving power = 1.22(λ / d)
D / L = 1.22(λ / d)
0.054 / L = 1.22 [(0.12 × 10⁻⁹) / (4 × 10⁻³ m)]
0.054 / L = 1.22 [0.03 × 10⁻⁶]
L = 0.054 / 1.22 [0.03 × 10⁻⁶]
L = 0.054 / [0.0366 × 10⁻⁶]
L = 1.47 × 10⁶
Maximum altitude to see(L) = 1.47 × 10⁶ m (Approx)
The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Which statement about those waves is true?
OA. The mechanical waves reach Earth, while the electromagnetic waves do not.
OB. The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not.
OC. Both the mechanical waves and the electromagnetic waves reach Earth.
OD. Neither the mechanical waves nor the electromagnetic waves reach Earth.
Answer: The correct answer for this question is letter (B) The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not. The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Space, between the sun and the earth is a nearly vacuum. So mechanical wave can not spread out in the vacuum.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not
A body is thrown vertically upwards with a speed of 95m / s and after 7s it reaches its maximum height. How fast does it reach its maximum height? What was the maximum height reached?
Explanation:
u = 95 m/sec ( Initial speed)
t = 7 sec ( Time of ascent)
According to Equations of Motion :
[tex]s = ut - \frac{1}{2} g {t}^{2} [/tex]
Max. Height = 95 * 7 - 4.9 * 49 = 424. 9 = 425 m
Answer:
332.5 m
Explanation:
At the maximum height, the velocity is 0.
Given:
v₀ = 95 m/s
v = 0 m/s
t = 7 s
Find: Δy
Δy = ½ (v + v₀) t
Δy = ½ (0 m/s + 95 m/s) (7 s)
Δy = 332.5 m
an electromagnetic wave propagates in a vacuum in the x-direction. In what direction does the electric field oscilate
Answer:
The electric field can either oscillates in the z-direction, or the y-direction, but must oscillate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation, and the direction of oscillation of the magnetic field.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are waves that have an oscillating magnetic and electric field, that oscillates perpendicularly to one another. Electromagnetic waves are propagated in a direction perpendicular to both the electric and the magnetic field. If the wave is propagated in the x-direction, then the electric field can either oscillate in the y-direction, or the z-direction but must oscillate perpendicularly to both the the direction of oscillation of the magnetic field, and the direction of propagation of the wave.
What is the de Broglie wavelength of an object with a mass of 2.50 kg moving at a speed of 2.70 m/s? (Useful constant: h = 6.63×10-34 Js.)
Answer:
9.82 × [tex]10^{-35}[/tex] Hz
Explanation:
De Broglie equation is used to determine the wavelength of a particle (e.g electron) in motion. It is given as:
λ = [tex]\frac{h}{mv}[/tex]
where: λ is the required wavelength of the moving electron, h is the Planck's constant, m is the mass of the particle, v is its speed.
Given that: h = 6.63 ×[tex]10^{-34}[/tex] Js, m = 2.50 kg, v = 2.70 m/s, the wavelength, λ, can be determined as follows;
λ = [tex]\frac{h}{mv}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{6.63*10^{-34} }{2.5*2.7}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{6.63 * 10^{-34} }{6.75}[/tex]
= 9.8222 × [tex]10^{-35}[/tex]
The wavelength of the object is 9.82 × [tex]10^{-35}[/tex] Hz.
g In the atmosphere, the shortest wavelength electromagnetic waves are called A. infrared waves. B. ultraviolet waves. C. X-rays. D. gamma rays. E.

A 590-turn solenoid is 12 cm long. The current in it is 36 A . A straight wire cuts through the center of the solenoid, along a 4.5-cm diameter. This wire carries a 27-A current downward (and is connected by other wires that don't concern us).
What is the magnitude of the force on this wire assuming the solenoid's field points due east?
Complete Question
A 590-turn solenoid is 12 cm long. The current in it is 36 A . A 2 cm straight wire cuts through the center of the solenoid, along a 4.5-cm diameter. This wire carries a 27-A current downward (and is connected by other wires that don't concern us).
What is the magnitude of the force on this wire assuming the solenoid's field points due east?
Answer:
The force is [tex]F = 0.1602 \ N[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The number of turns is [tex]N = 590 \ turns[/tex]
The length of the solenoid is [tex]L = 12 \ cm = 0.12 \ m[/tex]
The current is [tex]I = 36 \ A[/tex]
The diameter is [tex]D = 4.5 \ cm = 0.045 \ m[/tex]
The current carried by the wire is [tex]I = 27 \ A[/tex]
The length of the wire is [tex]l = 2 cm = 0.02 \ m[/tex]
Generally the magnitude of the force on this wire assuming the solenoid's field points due east is mathematically represented as
[tex]F = B * I * l[/tex]
Here B is the magnetic field which is mathematically represented as
[tex]B = \frac{\mu_o * N * I }{L}[/tex]
Here [tex]\mu _o[/tex] is permeability of free space with value [tex]\mu_ o = 4\pi *10^{-7} \ N/A^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]B = \frac{4 \pi *10^{-7} * 590 * 36 }{ 0.12}[/tex]
[tex]B = 0.2225 \ T[/tex]
So
[tex]F = 0.2225 * 36 * 0.02[/tex]
[tex]F = 0.1602 \ N[/tex]
The number of daylight hours, D, in the city of Worcester, Massachusetts, where x is the number of days after January 1 (), may be calculated by the function: What is the period of this function? N/A What is the amplitude of this function? 12 What is the horizontal shift? What is the phase shift? What is the vertical shift? How many hours of sunlight will there be on February 21st of any year?
Answer:
a. 365; b. 3; c. 78; d. 1.343 rad; e. 12; f. 10.66
Explanation:
Assume that the function is
[tex]D(x) = 3 \sin \left (\dfrac{2\pi}{365}(x - 78) \right ) + 12[/tex]
The general formula for a sinusoidal function is
y = A sin(B(x - C))+ D
|A| = amplitude
B = frequency
2π/B = period, P
C = horizontal shift (phase shift)
D = vertical shift
By comparing the two formulas, we find
|A| = 3
B = 2π/365
C = 78
D = 12
a. Period
P = 2π/B = 2π/(2π/365) = 2π × 365/2π = 365
The period is 365.
b. Amplitude
|A| = 3
The amplitude is 3.
c. Horizontal shift
C= 78
The horizontal shift is 78.
d. Phase shift (φ)
Ths phase shift is the horizontal shift expressed in radians.
φ = C × 2π/365 = 78 × 2π/365 ≈ 1.343
The phase shift is 1.343 rad.
e. Vertical shift
D = 12
The vertical shift is 12.
f. Hours of sunlight on Feb 21
Feb 21 is the 52nd day of the year, so x = 51 (the number of days after Jan 1),
[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}D(x) &=& 3 \sin \left (\dfrac{2\pi}{365}(x - 78) \right ) + 12\\\\&=& 3 \sin (0.01721(51 - 78) ) + 12\\&=& 3\sin(-0.4648) + 12\\&=& 3(-0.4482) + 12\\\&=& -1.345 + 12\\& = & \textbf{10.66 h}\\\end{array}[/tex]
There will be 10.66 h of sunlight on Feb 21 of any given year.
The figure below shows the graph of the function from 0 ≤ x ≤ 365.
