the following data apply to the speaker system:
coil diameter = 5.8cm
coil turns = 86
coil and cone mass = 30g
magnetic flux density = 0.12T
Current in the coil = 1.8A
Using the above data, the acceleration of the cone will be?
A) 12.6 b) 79.3 c) 113 d) 247

This comes from my revision sheet i don't know how number of turns related to this

30/1000 x a = 1.8 x 0.12 x 2pi x 5.8/100 x 86

a = 113 (SOLVED THX!)

.. so you've solved this OK now?! :smile:

Also.. Remember your units! :wink:

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 'Struggling to understand the concept of this 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...
