A single conducting loop of wire has an area of 7.2E-2m^2 and a resistance of 110 ohms. Perpendicular to the plane of the loop is a magnetic field of strength 0.48T. At what rate (in T/s) must this field change if the induced current in the loop is to be 0.32A?
How do the resistance, capacitive reactance, and inductive reactance change when the frequency in a circuit is increased?
In an a.c. circuit, an inductor produces inductive reactance which causes the current to lag the voltage by 90 degrees. Because the inductor “reacts” to a changing current, it is known as a reactivecomponent. The opposition that an inductor presents to a.c. is called inductive reactance (XL). This opposition is caused by the inductor “reacting” to the changing current of the a.c. source. Both the inductance and the frequency determine the magnitude of this reactance. This relationship is stated by the formula:
A 3.33-kOhm resistor is connected to a generator with a maximum voltage of 141V. Find (a) the average and b. the maximum power delivered to this circuit.
The reactance of a capacitor is 65ohms at a frequency of 57Hz. What is its capacitance?
Find the impedance of a 60Hz circuit with a 45 Ohm resistor connected in series with a 95 uF capacitor.
Predict/Explain When a long copper wire of finite resistance is connected to an ac generator, as shown in figure (a), a certain amount of current flows through the wire. The wire is now wound into a coil of many loops and reconnected to the generator, as indicated in Figure. (a) Is the current supplied,to the coil greater than, less than, or the same as the supplied to the uncoiled wire? (b) Choose the best explanation from among the following.
I. More current flows in the circuit because the coiled wire is an inductor and inductors tend to keep the current flowing in an ac circuit
II. The current supplied to the circuit is the same because the wire is the same. Simply wrapping the wire in a coil changes nothing.
III. Less current is supplied to the circuit because the coiled wire acts as an inductor, which increases the impedance of the circuit.
III. Less current is supplied to the circuit because the coiled wire acts as an inductor, which increases the impedance of the circuit.
An inductor, also called a coil, choke or reactor, is a passive two-terminal electrical component which resists changes in electric current passing through it.
Find the frequency at which a 33 uF capacitor has the same reactance as a 33mH inductor. What is the the resonance frequency of an LC circuit made with this inductor and capacitor?
Two RLC circuits have different values of L and C. Is it possible for these two circuits to have the same resonance frequency? Explain.
The resonant frequency of RLC circuit is 1/2piSqrt(L*C)
If the product L*C is same for the two circuits in question then you can have the same resonant frequency for eg the circit with 6H inductance and 1F capacitance will have same resonant frequency as 3H inductance and 2F capacitance
An electric charge on the r axis oscillates sinusoidally about the origin. A distant observer is located at a point on the *y axis.

(b) In what direction will the magnetic field oscillate at the observer’s location?
(c) In what direction will the electromagnetic wave propagate at the observer’s location?
Y= Electromagnetic wave
X= Electric field
Z= Magnetic field (oscillates in the plane perpendicular to the electric field and is also perpendicular to the direction of propagation)
- (a) The electric field will oscillate in the x direction
- (b) The magnetic field will oscillate in the z direction.
- (c) The electromagnetic wave will propagate in the positive y direction.
Most of the galaxies in the universe are observed to be moving away from Earth. Suppose a particular galaxy emits orange light with a frequency of 5.000 x 10E14 H2. If the galaxy is receding from Earth with a speed oI 3325 km/s, what is the frequency of the light when it reaches Earth?
NEED TO REWRITE ANSWER! Consider a spiral galaxy that is moving directly away from Earth with a speed V : 3.600 x 105 m/s at its center as shown in Figure 15-26. The galaxy is also rotating about its center, so that points in its spiral arms are moving with a speed of : 6.400 x 105 m/s relative to the center. If light with a frequency of 8.230 x 10^14 H2 is emitted in both arms of the galaxy, what frequency is detected by astronomers observing the arm that is moving (a) toward and (b) away from Earth (Measurements of this type are used to map out the speed of various regions in distant, rotating galaxies.)
