- CASE STUDY A person in Franklins time may have been able to provide the same advice we came up with in Example 23.2. However, an 18th-century person may have had a different reason for his or her advice. What part of that persons explanation would be the same as ours? What would be different?arrow_forwardommon household electric current is called alternating current because the current alternates direction within the wires. The voltage V in a typical 115-volt outlet can be expressed by the function V(t)=163sinωt, where ω is the angular speed (in radians per second) of the rotating generator at the electrical plant and t is the time measured in seconds. It is essential for electric generators to rotate at precisely 60 cycles per sec. Complete parts (a) and (b). (a) How many times does the current oscillate in 0.05 sec? 33 time(s) (b) What are the maximum and minimum voltages in this outlet? Is the voltage always equal to 115 volts?

Modern versions employ small magnets attached to a spoke on either the front or rear wheel and a sensor located on the front fork or rear frame. As the magnet is carried past the detector once each wheel revolution, it produces an electrical pulse that is recorded and logged by an integrated circuit in the device. The distance traveled equals the total number of revolutions multiplied by the circumference of the wheel. (a) A typical mountain bike has a wheel diameter of 26 in. How far will a cyclist have traveled in both miles and kilometers if her cyclometer indicates that her front wheel has made 25,000 revolutions during her trip? (b) If the cyclometer clock shows that the elapsed time for the trip was 2 hours and 40 minutes, what was the rider’s average speed during this period?arrow_forward

( ) If a magnet breaks in half, it has a separate north pole and south pole.( )The SI unit of measurement of the magnetic field is the tesla.( ) A particle positively charged in an electric field experiences a force in the direction of the field; in a magnetic field, the force is perpendicular to the magnetic field. () For a particle of mass m and charge q, moving at speed v in a magnetic field B, the radius r of the circumference that it travels is inversely proportional to the mass.
