It has been proposed that extending a long conducting wire from a spacecraft (a "tether") could be used for a variety of applica

tions, from navigation to power generation. One of the first such experiments involving this technique was an August 1992 space shuttle flight, but the tether failed and only only 250 m of the conducting wire could be let out. A 40.0 V motional emf was generated in the Earth's 5.0 x 10-T field, while the shuttle and tether were moving at 7.80 x 10 m/s. What was the angle (in degrees) between the shuttle's velocity and the Earth's field?

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The angle between shuttle's velocity and the Earth's field is  \theta =   24.2^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The length of eire let out is  L = 250 \ m

      The emf generated is \epsilon = 40 V

      The earth magnetic field is B = 5.0 *10^{-5} T

     The speed of the shuttle and tether is v =  7.80 * 10^3 \  m/s

The emf generated is mathematically represented as

                             \epsilon = L\ v\ B\ sin \ \theta

making \theta  the subject of the formula

                        \theta =   sin ^{-1}[ \frac{\epsilon}{L  * B  *v} ]

substituting values

                        \theta =   sin ^{-1}[ \frac{40}{250  * (5*10^{-5})  *(7.80 *10^{3})} ]

                        \theta =   24.2^o

Sati [7]

Answer:

  h = v₀² / 2g ,      h = k/4g     x²

Explanation:

In this exercise we can use the law of conservation of energy at two points, the lowest, before the shot and the highest point that the mouse reaches

Starting point. Lower compressed spring

              Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final point. Highest on the path

             Em_{f} = U = mg h

             

As or no friction the energy is conserved  

              Em₀ =  Em_{f}

              ½ m v₀²² = m g h

             h = v₀² / 2g

We can also use as initial energy the energy stored in the spring that will later be transferred to the mouse

                  ½ k x² = 2 g h

                  h = k/4g     x²

You want to move a heavy box with mass 30.0 kg across a carpeted floor. You pull hard on one of the edges of the box at an angle
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

a=5.54m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The net force, F_{net} of the box is expressed as a product of acceleration and mass hence

F_{net}=ma where m is mass and a is acceleration

Making a the subject, a= \frac {F_{net}}{m}

From the attached sketch,  

∑ F_{net}=Fcos\theta-F_{f} where F_{f} is frictional force and \theta is horizontal angle

Substituting ∑ F_{net} as F_{net} in the equation where we made a the subject

a= \frac {Fcos\theta-F_{f}}{m}

Since we’re given the value of F as 240N, F_{f} as 41.5N, \theta as 30^{o} and mass m as 30kg

a= \frac {240cos30-41.5}{30.0}=\frac {166.346}{30.0}=5.54m/s^{2}

As a blacksmith heats a piece of iron, the iron glows red, then yellow, then white. The iron provides a demonstration of which p
Nitella [24]
The answer is D. Blackbody radiation. The piece of iron glows red because its temperature is around 1000 K, then yellow because its temperature is around 2800 K, and then white because its temperature is around 5500K. This shows that the spectrum of the radiation is determined by absolute temperature, as when the temperature of a blackbody radiator increases, the peak of the radiation curve moves to shorter wavelengths.

A turntable that is initially at rest is set in motion with a constant angular acceleration α. What is the magnitude of the angu
bekas [8.4K]

Explanation:

If the turntable starts from rest and is set in motion with a constant angular acceleration α. Let \omega is the angular velocity of the turntable. We know that the rate of change of angular velocity is called the angular acceleration of an object. Its formula is given by :

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega-0}{t}

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega}{t}

t=\dfrac{\omega}{\alpha }............(1)

Using second equation of kinematics as :

\theta=\omega_i t+\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

\theta=\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

Using equation (1) in above equation

\theta=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\omega^2}{\alpha }

In one revolution, \theta=4\pi (in 2 revolutions)

4\pi =\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\omega^2}{\alpha }

\omega=\sqrt{8\pi \alpha}

\omega=2\sqrt{2\pi \alpha}

Hence, this is the required solution.
