As shown in the figure, a conducting rod with a linear mass density of 0.0395 kg/m is suspended by two flexible wires of negligible mass in a uniform magnetic field directed into the page. A power supply is used to send a current through the rod such that the tension in the support wires is zero. (a) If the magnitude of the magnetic field is 3.70 T, determine the current in the conducting rod. (b) Determine the direction of the...

A thin 1.5-m-long uniform rod with a total mass of 1650 g is suspended vertically at the upper end. The moment of inertia of the rod in respect to the center of mass is mL2/12 (where L is the total length of the rod). A 12-g bullet is shot to the lower end of the rod and embeds there. The bullet speed before impact is 380 m/s. Calculate the amount of energy transferred to the heat during the collision.

Suppose that the market price is given by max{0,10 -Q} where Q is the total market quantity. Firms in this market choose quantity and then the price in the market is revealed. Suppose that there are two firms in the market, Firm A and Firm B. Each firm has a constant marginal cost of one and no fixed costs. Suppose that Firm A chooses output first, it is then observed by Firm B and then Firm B makes her choice...
