AI Thread Summary
To calculate the number of windings required on a cylinder with dimensions 60cm in length and 5cm in diameter to induce an EMF of 6mV with a rate of change of current (ΔI/Δt) of 1A/s, the formula ε = -L * ΔI/Δt is utilized. The inductance (L) can be determined using the cylinder's physical dimensions and the number of windings. The discussion emphasizes the need to relate L to the cylinder's geometry and winding count. A link to an air-core inductor calculator is provided for further assistance. Understanding these relationships is crucial for accurate EMF calculations in this context.

How many windings you have to reel up on a cylinder (length is 60cm and the diameter is 5cm) so that a Emf of 6mV gets induced if ΔI/Δt=1A/s?

This is not my homework. I was doing this as a preparation. I know the formula:
ε=-L*ΔI/Δt
L is unknown. How to relate it to the windings, the length and the diameter of the cylinder?

Okay, thanks.
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
