    Stability of Carbocation: The Impact of +I Effect

    Homework Statement Does +I effect stabilize or destabilize a carbocation Homework Equations NA The Attempt at a Solution In one way, +I effect tends to increase electron density on the carbocation and hence neutralize the charge and hence would stabilize it. On the other hand, the nature of...

    Why Does Increasing a Satellite's Altitude Affect Its Total Energy?

    Homework Statement If height of a satellite from the surface of Earth is increased, why does the total energy increase? Homework Equations T.E=K.E + P.E The Attempt at a Solution Here the work done by non-conservative forces is zero. This means that the total mechanical energy of the system...

    How is EMF induced in a pendulum under the influence of Earth's magnetic field?

    Coffee_ said: ↑ You use θ˙=w while θ˙ is something different here as pointed out earlier - we are not assuming uniform circular motion here rememb I suppose omega is constant in pendulum motion. It is equal to (g/L)^1/2

    How is EMF induced in a pendulum under the influence of Earth's magnetic field?

    But if I replace the area to be transversed as theta, then is my approach correct? Area traversed by pendulum in theta=(theta * L^2)/2 Magnetic flux=BA=B*(Theta*L^2)/2 EMF=d(B*Theta*L^2)/dt =(BL^2)/2*d(theta)/dt =(BL^2)/2omega =BL^2/2*(g/L)^1/2 But the answer is BL*sin (theta/2)*(gl)^1/2

    How is EMF induced in a pendulum under the influence of Earth's magnetic field?

    Homework Statement A simple pendulum with bob of mass m and conducting wire of length L swings under gravity through an angle 2 theta. The Earth's magnetic field component in the direction perpendicular to swing is B. The maximum potential difference induced across the pendulum is Homework...
