AI Thread Summary
To calculate the induced current in a current loop with resistance R = 522 ohms and area A = 0.28 m² in a varying magnetic field, the magnetic field can be expressed as B = B0sin(2πft). The user is trying to find the current induced at t = 0.30 s and has calculated a value of 8.42e-4 A but lacks access to the necessary figure for B0 and frequency f. The discussion emphasizes the need for these values to accurately determine the induced current. Access to the figure or additional information is essential for resolving the calculation.

1. A current loop with a resistance R = 522 and an area A = 0.28 m2 is oriented perpendicular to a magnetic field that varies in time as sketched in the figure. What is the current induced in the loop at t = 0.30 s?

2.(Hint: You can express the magnetic field in the form B=B0sin(2 f*t).)



3. I keep getting the answer of 8.42e-4

I can't see the figure...they are asking me to log in...
 
At least provide the values for B0 and f.
 

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...
