    Charging a battery by moving a magnet randomly in 2D plane?

    Because it's a magnetophoretic board, I want to be able to store this energy, and release it to quickly "wipe" the board by running a charge through the board. By drawing energy from the act of drawing on the board itself, I might be able to implement the "erase" and other functions without...

    Charging a battery by moving a magnet randomly in 2D plane?

    Thanks for the links eq1 - I've done some courses in electromagnetism and understand the fundamental mathematics behind it. From a very simple 1D model where you have a conductive wire going along the x-axis, if you move a bar magnet around near the wire, a current will be produced in the wire...

    Charging a battery by moving a magnet randomly in 2D plane?

    I understand where you're coming from - if you had a simple bar magnet, however held it vertically from the plane such that the S end was further from the plane than the N end, wouldn't the field in one direction be stronger? The other issue arises which would be the direction of nearby coils in...

    Charging a battery by moving a magnet randomly in 2D plane?

    Yeah, I thought that the EMF might be wildly inconsistent / in opposing directions depending on the movement. Thanks for your input!

    Charging a battery by moving a magnet randomly in 2D plane?

    I'm trying to use an magnetophoretic film (like the ones from these toys: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005NJT4S2/?tag=pfamazon01-20 and figure out a way to generate power through the user's drawing movements, but at a much larger scale than the toy. The end of the pen has a magnet which attracts...

    Charging a battery by moving a magnet randomly in 2D plane?

    I'm sorry if this question is a little abstract, but would appreciate any guidance! It's for a DIY project I am considering. Suppose you have a flat panel mounted on a wall, and a very strong magnet that will move in any direction on the plane of the flat panel. Through any possible arrangement...

    How Do You Calculate the Moment of Inertia for a Disk with a Central Hole?

    Yes, this is what seems to be the case. Thanks for checking the work! I'll submit a request to the instructor.

    How Do You Calculate the Moment of Inertia for a Disk with a Central Hole?

    Homework Statement A disk of radius R has an initial mass M. Then a hole of radius (1/4) is drilled, with its edge at the disk center. Find the new rotational inertia about the central axis. Hint: Find the rotational inertia of the missing piece, and subtract it from that of the whole disk...

    Determining the Ionic Radii of group 2 metal chlorides?

    I need the ionic radius of the cation in the following anhydrous salts: FeCl2 and CoCl2 Looking at this database: http://www.knowledgedoor.com/2/elements_handbook/shannon-prewitt_effective_ionic_radius_part_2.html Knowing that the coordination number of both Fe2+ and Co2+ cations is 6, I am...

    Thermodynamics of an Arctic greenhouse?

    For a business project, I'm looking into the viability of a greenhouse situated in Canada's far northern town of Iqaluit. The problem is how to mathematically simulate the internal air temperature of the greenhouse. What I already have are detailed 3D renderings of the greenhouse as well as all...

    Best Method of Analyzing Experimental Percent Error

    My results when I graphed molarity against percent yield were a weak positive correlation. The slope was 51 exactly however the correlation was 0.8978. I will consider both prospects as I think the percent yield would increase linearly with molarity increases but I haven't been able to find any...

    Best Method of Analyzing Experimental Percent Error

    Homework Statement I have performed a chemistry experiment where I analyzed how the diluting of two reactants with the same volume and initial concentration impacts the percent yield of a precipitate product. Thus my IV was concentration and my DV was percent yield. My question is what is the...

    How Long Will it Take to Heat Water Using a Solar Heater?

    Homework Statement A solar heater is used to warm 150 kg of water by 30 K. The intensity of solar radiation is 6000 Wm-2 and the area of the panels is 4.0 m2. The specific heat capacity of the water is 4.2 * 103 J/kg/K. Estimate the time this will take, assuming a solar panel efficiency of...
