An incredible amount of electrical energy passes down the funnel of a large tornado every second. Measurements taken in Oklahoma

at a distance of 9.00 km from a large tornado showed an almost constant magnetic field of 1.50 · 10 -8 T associated with the tornado. What was the average current going down the funnel? (µo = 4π · 10 -7 T·m/A)

Answer:

675 A

Explanation:

B = 1.5 x 10^-8 T

r = 9 km = 9000 m

Let the current be i

The formula for the magnetic filed due to a very long straight conductor is given by

B =\frac{\mu_{0}}{4\pi }\times \frac{2i}{r}

1.5\times 10^{-8} =10^{-7}\times \frac{2i}{9000}

i = 675 A

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

a) R `= 3.5 ohms

b) energy decipated =   560J

Explanation:

V = I . R

R = V / I

R `= 70 / 20

R `= 3.5 ohms

2)energy decipated = 1/2ij²

energy decipated = 1/2 x 2.8 x (20)²

energy decipated =   560J

An orange of mass 3kg falls from a height 50m. When its height is H, its speed is
MArishka [77]

Answer:

(10 m/s²) (50 m) = (10 m/s²) H + ½ (4 m/s)²

Explanation:

Initially, the orange has only gravitational potential energy.

As the orange falls, it has a combination of potential energy and kinetic energy.

Energy is conserved, so initial energy = final energy:

PE₀ = PE + KE

mgH₀ = mgH + ½ mv²

gH₀ = gH + ½ v²

Plugging in values:

(10 m/s²) (50 m) = (10 m/s²) H + ½ (4 m/s)²

An alert driver can apply the brakes fully in about 0.5 seconds. How far would the car travel if it
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The car would travel after applying brakes is, d = 14.53 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The time taken to apply brakes fully is, t = 0.5 s

The velocity of the car, v = 29.06 m/s

The distance traveled by the car in 0.5 s, d = ?

The relation between the velocity, displacement, and time is given by the formula                

                                d = v x t    m

Substituting the values in the above equation,

                                  d = 29.06 m/s x 0.5 s

                                     = 14.53 m

Therefore, the car would travel after applying brakes is, d = 14.53 m
