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.
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.
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

The highest mountain on mars is olympus mons, rising 22000 meters above the martian surface. If we were to throw an object horizontaly off the mountain top, how long would it take to reach the surface? (Ignore atmospheric drag forces and use gMars=3.72m/s^2
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

A nearsighted person has a far point that is 4.2 m from his eyes. What focal length lenses in diopters he must use in his contacts to allow him to focus on distant objects?
Answer:
-0.24diopters
Explanation:
The lens is intended that makes an object at infinity appear to be 4.2 m away, so do=infinity, dI = - 4.2m (minus sign because image is on same side of lens as object)
So 1/do +1/di = 1/f
1/infinity + 1/-4.2 = 1/f
1/f = 1/-4.2 = -0.24diopters

This problem explores the behavior of charge on conductors. We take as an example a long conducting rod suspended by insulating strings. Assume that the rod is initially electrically neutral. For convenience we will refer to the left end of the rod as end A, and the right end of the rod as end B. In the answer options for this problem, "strongly attracted/repelled" means "attracted/repelled with a force of magnitude similar to that which would exist between two charged balls.A. A small metal ball is given a negative charge, then brought near (i.e., within about 1/10 the length of the rod) to end A of the rod. What happens to end A of the rod when the ball approaches it closely this first time?
What happens to end A of the rod when the ball approaches it closely this first time?a. It is strongly repelled.b. It is strongly attracted.c. It is weakly attracted.d. It is weakly repelled.e. It is neither attracted nor repelled.
Answer:
e. It is neither attracted nor repelled.
Explanation:
Electrostatic attraction or repulsion occurs between two or more charged particles or conductors. In this case, if the negatively charged ball is brought close to the neutral end A of the rod, there would be no attraction or repulsion between the rod end A and the negatively charged ball. This is because a charged particle or conductor has no attraction or repulsion to a neutral particle or conductor.

A pair of narrow, parallel slits separated by 0.230 mm is illuminated by green light (λ = 546.1 nm). The interference pattern is observed on a screen 1.50 m away from the plane of the parallel slits.
A) Calculate the distance from the central maximum to the first bright region on either side of the central maximum.
B) Calculate the distance between the first and second dark bands in the interference pattern.
Answer:
A) y = 3.56 mm
B) y = 3.56 mm
Explanation:
A) The distance from the central maximum to the first bright region can be found using Young's double-slit equation:
[tex] y = \frac{m\lambda L}{d} [/tex]
Where:
λ: is the wavelength = 546.1 nm
m: is first bright region = 1
L: is the distance between the screen and the plane of the parallel slits = 1.50 m
d: is the separation between the slits = 0.230 mm
[tex] y = \frac{m\lambda L}{d} = \frac{1*546.1 \cdot 10^{-9} m*1.50 m}{0.230 \cdot 10^{-3} m} = 3.56 \cdot 10^{-3} m [/tex]
B) The distance between the first and second dark bands is:
[tex] \Delta y = \frac{\Delta m*\lambda L}{d} [/tex]
Where:
[tex] \Delta m = m_{2} - m_{1} = 2 - 1 = 1 [/tex]
[tex] \Delta y = \frac{1*546.1 \cdot 10^{-9} m*1.50 m}{0.230 \cdot 10^{-3} m} = 3.56 \cdot 10^{-3} m [/tex]

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).
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 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°
What is the minimum thickness of coating which should be placed on a lens in order to minimize reflection of 566 nm light? The index of refraction of the coating material is 1.46 and the index of the glass is 1.71.
Answer:
The thickness is [tex]t = 1.415 *10^{-7 } \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The wavelength is [tex]\lambda = 566 \ nm = 566 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]
The index of refraction of glass is [tex]n_g = 1.71[/tex]
The index of refraction of the coating is [tex]n= 1.46[/tex]
Generally the condition for destructive interference is
[tex]2 t = (m + \frac{1}{2} ) * \frac{\lambda }{n }[/tex]
Here m is the order of the interference pattern and given from the question that we are considering minimizing reflection m = 0
t = thickness of the coating
substituting values
[tex]2 t = (0 + \frac{1}{2} ) * \frac{ 566 *10^{-9}}{ 1.46 }[/tex]
=> [tex]t = 1.415 *10^{-7 } \ m[/tex]
How much work is needed to pump all the water out of a cylindrical tank with a height of 10 m and a radius of 5 m
Answer:
Explanation:
volume of water being lifted
= π r² h , where r is radius of cylinder and h is height of cylinder
= 3.14 x5² x 10
= 785 m³
mass of water = 785 x 10³ kg
mass of this much of water is lifted so that its centre of mass is lifted by height
10 / 2 = 5m .
So work done = mgh , m is mass of water , h is displacement of centre of mass and g is acceleration due to gravity
= 785 x 10³ x 9.8 x 5
= 38.465 x 10⁶ J
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.

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 resistor made of Nichrome wire is used in an application where its resistance cannot change more than 1.35% from its value at 20.0°C. Over what temperature range can it be used (in °C)?
Answer:
Pls seeattached file
Explanation:
A resistor made of Ni chrome wire is used in an application where its resistance cannot be more than 1.35 % so its temperature range will be from 33.75 to -33.75 °C.
What is Resistance?Electrical resistance, or resistance to electricity, is a force that opposes the flow of current. Ohms are used to expressing resistance values.
When there is an electron difference between two terminals, electricity will flow from high to low. In opposition to that flow is resistance. As resistance rises, the current declines. On the other side, when the resistance falls, the current rises.
According to the question,
R = R₀ (1 + α ΔT)
(1 + 0.0135)R₀ = R₀(1 + α ΔT)
ΔT = (1 + 0.0135) / α
= 0.0135 / 0.0004
= 33.75 °C.
ΔT = [(1 - 0.0135) -1]/0.004

Water flows at speed v in a pipe of radius R. At what speed does the water flow through a constriction in which the radius of the pipe is R/3
Answer:
v₂ = 9 v
Explanation:
For this exercise in fluid mechanics, let's use the continuity equation
v₁ A₁ = v₂ A₂
where v is the velocity of the fluid, A the area of the pipe and the subscripts correspond to two places of interest.
The area of a circle is
A = π R²
let's use the subscript 1 for the starting point and the subscript 2 for the part with the constraint
In this case v₁ = v and the area is
A₁ = π R²
in the second point
A₂= π (R / 3)²
we substitute in the continuity equation
v π R² = v₂ π R² / 9
v = v₂ / 9
v₂ = 9 v

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)

You put each in motion on your spring and measure the frequency. For the 1 kg weight you measured 1.1 Hz, for the 2 kg weight you measured 0.8 Hz. a) Find k (spring constant) and c (damping constant). Find a formula for the mass in terms of the frequency in Hz. Note that there may be more than one possible mass for a given frequency. b) For an unknown object you measured 0.2 Hz, what is the mass of the object? Suppose that you know that the mass of the unknown object is more than a kilogram.
Answer:
a) k = 95.54 N / m, c = 19.55 , b) m₃ = 0.9078 kg
Explanation:
In a simple harmonic movement with friction, we can assume that this is provided by the speed
fr = -c v
when solving the system the angular value remains
w² = w₀² + (c / 2m)²
They give two conditions
1) m₁ = 1 kg
f₁ = 1.1 Hz
the angular velocity is related to frequency
w = 2π f₁
Let's find the angular velocity without friction is
w₂ = k / m₁
we substitute
(2π f₁)² = k / m₁ + (c / 2m₁)²
2) m₂ = 2 kg
f₂ = 0.8 Hz
(2π f₂)² = k / m₂ + (c / 2m₂)²
we have a system of two equations with two unknowns, so we can solve it
we solve (c / 2m)² is we equalize the expression
(2π f₁)² - k / m₁ = (2π f₂²) 2 - k / m₁
k (1 / m₂ - 1 / m₁) = 4π² (f₂² - f₁²)
k = 4π² (f₂² -f₁²) / (1 / m₂ - 1 / m₁)
a) Let's calculate
k = 4 π² (0.8² -1.1²) / (½ -1/1)
k = 39.4784 (1.21) / (-0.5)
k = 95.54 N / m
now we can find the constant of friction
(2π f₁) 2 = k / m₁ + (c / 2m₁)²
c2 = ((2π f₁)² - k / m₁) 4m₁²
c2 = (4ππ² f₁² - k / m₁) 4 m₁²
let's calculate
c² = (4π² 1,1² - 95,54 / 1) 4 1²
c² = (47.768885 - 95.54) 8
c² = -382.1689
c = 19.55
b) f₃ = 0.2 Hz
m₃ =?
(2πf₃)² = k / m₃ + (c / 2m₃) 2
we substitute the values
(4π² 0.2²) = 95.54 / m₃ + 382.1689 2/4 m₃²
1.579 = 95.54 / m₃ + 95.542225 / m₃²
let's call
x = 1 / m₃
x² = 1 / m₃²
- 1.579 + 95.54 x + 95.542225 x² = 0
60.5080 x² + 60.5080 x -1 = 0
x² + x - 1.65 10⁻² = 0
x = [1 ±√ (1- 4 (-1.65 10⁻²)] / 2
x = [1 ± 1.03] / 2
x₁ = 1.015 kg
x₂ = -0.015 kg
Since the mass must be positive we eliminate the second results
x₁ = 1 / m₃
m₃ = 1 / x₁
m₃ = 1 / 1.1015
