Chapter 21, Problem 25P

* An experimental apparatus has two parallel horizontal metal rails separated by 1.0 m. A 2.0 Ω resistor is connected from the left end of one rail to the left end of the other. A metal axle with metal wheels is pulled toward the right along the rails at a speed of 20 m/s. Earth's uniform 5.0 × 10 5 T B field points down at an angle of 53 ° below the horizontal. Make a list of the physical quantities you can determine using this information and determine two of them.

Question 4.  b. Points b and c passing through each resistor in the circuit in the figure potential difference between them.   Question 5, a. Define the magnetic field. You can properly describe reinforcements to a magnetic field charge q. b. An electron in a television tube is traveling through the x-axis at a speed of 3x106 m/s. B=0.028 T makes the earth 30° with x in the xy plane. Find the acceleration of the electron. sin30°=0.5 , qe=-1.6x10**C, m, = 9.1x10-31 kg, cos30°=0.86 6=30
A resistor R is connected between two parallel conducting rails separated by 30 cm, as shown in the diagram. A conducting bar maintains electric contact with the rails as it moves relative to them with constant velocity from x = 20 cm to x = 48 cm in 0.6 seconds. A uniform 0.8 T field points into the page. Calculate the induced electric potential difference between the two ends of the bar.
Magnetism:  Rail Gun A rail gun uses electromagnetic forces to accelerate a projectile to very high velocities. The basic mechanism of acceleration is relatively simple and can be illustrated in the following example. A metal rod of mass 40.0 gg and electrical resistance 0.400 ΩΩ rests on parallel horizontal rails that have negligible electric resistance. The rails are a distance LLL = 10.0 cmcm apart. (Figure 1)The rails are also connected to a voltage source providing a voltage of VVV = 5.00 VV . The rod is placed in a vertical magnetic field. The rod begins to slide when the field reaches the value BBB = 0.157 TT . Assume that the rod has a slightly flattened bottom so that it slides instead of rolling. Use 9.80 m/s2m/s2 for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. Find μs, the coefficient of static friction between the rod and the rails. (give answer numerically)
