To determine
The difference between magnetic flux and magnetic field.

Answer to Problem 1CQ

The magnetic field is the strength of the field and the flux is the amount of field that passes through unit area.

Explanation of Solution

The magnetic flux is defined as the number of magnetic lines of force that passes through the any surface area in magnetic field. It is denoted by phi (ϕ) and its S.I unit is Weber. The magnetic field is the strength of the field.

The magnetic field is defined as the magnetic flux that passes through the unit surface area of body. It is denoted by B and its S.I unit is Tesla or (Wb/m2) . The flux is the amount of field that passes through unit area.

Conclusion:

Therefore, the magnetic field is the strength of the field and the flux is the amount of field that passes through unit area.

A uniform ladder of length L and weight w is leaning against a vertical wall. The coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the floor is the same as that between the ladder and the wall. If this coefficient of static friction is μs : 0.535, determine the smallest angle the ladder can make with the floor without slipping. ° = A 14.0 m uniform ladder weighing 480 N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 55.0°-angle with the horizontal. (a) Find the horizontal and vertical forces (in N) the ground exerts on the base of the ladder when an 850-N firefighter has climbed 4.10 m along the ladder from the bottom. horizontal force magnitude 342. N direction towards the wall ✓ vertical force 1330 N up magnitude direction (b) If the ladder is just on the verge of slipping when the firefighter is 9.10 m from the bottom, what is the coefficient of static friction between ladder and ground? 0.26 × You appear to be using 4.10 m from part (a) for the position of the…
Your neighbor designs automobiles for a living. You are fascinated with her work. She is designing a new automobile and needs to determine how strong the front suspension should be. She knows of your fascination with her work and your expertise in physics, so she asks you to determine how large the normal force on the front wheels of her design automobile could become under a hard stop, ma when the wheels are locked and the automobile is skidding on the road. She gives you the following information. The mass of the automobile is m₂ = 1.10 × 103 kg and it can carry five passengers of average mass m = 80.0 kg. The front and rear wheels are separated by d = 4.45 m. The center of mass of the car carrying five passengers is dCM = 2.25 m behind the front wheels and hcm = 0.630 m above the roadway. A typical coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and roadway is μk 0.840. (Caution: The braking automobile is not in an inertial reference frame. Enter the magnitude of the force in N.)…
John is pushing his daughter Rachel in a wheelbarrow when it is stopped by a brick 8.00 cm high (see the figure below). The handles make an angle of 0 = 17.5° with the ground. Due to the weight of Rachel and the wheelbarrow, a downward force of 403 N is exerted at the center of the wheel, which has a radius of 16.0 cm. Assume the brick remains fixed and does not slide along the ground. Also assume the force applied by John is directed exactly toward the center of the wheel. (Choose the positive x-axis to be pointing to the right.) (a) What force (in N) must John apply along the handles to just start the wheel over the brick? (No Response) N (b) What is the force (magnitude in kN and direction in degrees clockwise from the -x-axis) that the brick exerts on the wheel just as the wheel begins to lift over the brick? magnitude (No Response) KN direction (No Response) ° clockwise from the -x-axis
