A flock of ducks is trying to migrate south for the winter, but they keep being blown off course by a wind blowing from the west at 5.0 m/s . A wise elder duck finally realizes that the solution is to fly at an angle to the wind. Part A If the ducks can fly at 9.0 m/s relative to the air, what direction should they head in order to move directly south?

Search coils and credit cards. one practical way to measure magnetic field strength uses a small, closely wound coil called a search coil. the coil is initially held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field. the coil is then either quickly rotated a quarter-turn about a diameter or quickly pulled out of the field. (a) derive the equation relating the total charge q that flows through a search coil to the magnetic-field magnitude b. the search coil has n turns, each with area a, and the flux through the coil is decreased from its initial maximum value to zero in a time ∆t. the resistance of the coil is r, and the total charge is q = i∆t, where i is the average current induced by the change in flux. (b) in a credit card reader, the magnetic strip on the back of a credit card is rapidly “swiped” past a coil within the reader. explain, using the same ideas that underlie the operation of a search coil, how the reader can decode the information stored in the pattern of magnetization on the strip. (c) is it necessary that the credit card be “swiped” through the reader at exactly the right speed? why or why not?

Gasoline comes from petroleum, which is made from ancient living things. petroleum, therefore, contains a type of energy. a. heat b. nuclear c. biological d. chemical potential

Acoil suspended freely, points in some direction when no current is passed through it . can you tell what will happen when a current is passed though it?
