AI Thread Summary
To calculate the resistance of the wire loop, use the formula R = ρL/A, where ρ is the resistivity, L is the length of the wire, and A is the cross-sectional area. The resistivity is given as 2.15 x 10^-8 Ohm x m, and the radius of the wire is 0.40 mm, allowing for the calculation of the cross-sectional area. The dimensions of the rectangular loop and the magnetic field information are not necessary for determining resistance. The discussion emphasizes focusing on the relevant variables for resistance rather than extraneous details. Understanding these principles is crucial for solving the problem effectively.

HELP ! Elctromagnetic Questions

Ok I need to solve for Resistance, but itseems like I don't have enough info
Here's my question :

The rectangular wire loop has dimensions of 4.0cm by 3.0cm. Moving at constant
speed, the loop completely exits the 0.14T uniform magnetic field in 0.12 seconds.
The wire has a radius of 0.40mm and a resistivity of 2.15 x 10^-8 Ohm x m .

Determine:

A) the resistance of the wire

Can you please help me with this ?
I have exam on following monday SO i need to get this ASAP !
THank you sooo much

R=rho L/A. You know rho, L, and A.
 
You can figure it out using the rules for magnetic flux and emf.

\Phi = \iint \mathbf{B} \cdot d\mathbf{a}

which if the magnetic field is constant, then

\Phi = B*Area

then the emf would be

\epsilon = \frac{d \phi}{dt}

you can find the current with current density formulas and whatnot. Do some work, and we'll see how we can help you.
 
Do you perhaps mean you need the impedance of the wire? Otherwise for resistance most of the given information about the shape of the wire (loop) is superfluous as Pam suggests. Only rho, L, A determine the resistance, the other information has no effect.

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...

Thread 'Struggle to understand the concept of the question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
