A pilot does not fall down when his aeroplane loops the loop. Why ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand why a pilot does not fall down when his aeroplane loops the loop, we need to analyze the forces acting on the pilot at the highest point of the loop. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Forces Acting on the Pilot:** At the highest point of the loop, two main forces act on the pilot: - The gravitational force (weight) acting downwards, which is given by \( mg \), where \( m \) is the mass of the pilot and \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity. - The normal force (\( N \)) exerted by the seat of the aeroplane acting upwards. ...

You may have seen in a circus a motorcyclist driving in a vertical loop inside a 'death well' chamber with holes, so the spectators can watch from outside. Explain clearly why the motorcyclist does not drop down when he is at the uppermost point, with no support from below. What is the minimum speed required to perform a vertical loop if the radius of the chamber is 25 m ?

You may have seen in a circus a motorcyclist driving in vertical loops inside a death well (a hollow spherical chamber with holes, so the spectators can watch from outside). Explain clearly why the motorcyclist does not drop down when he is at the uppermost point of death well with no support from below. What is the minimum speed required at the uppermost position to perform a vertical loop if the radius of the chamber is 25 m ?

A conducting circular loop of radius a and resistance per unit length R is moving with a constant velocity v_0 , parallel to an infinite conducting wire carrying current i_0 . A conducting rod of length 2a is approaching the centre of the loop with a constant velocity v_0/2 along the direction 2 of the current. At the instant t = 0 , the rod comes in contact with the loop at A and starts sliding on the loop with the constant velocity. Neglecting the resistance of the rod and the self-inductance of the circuit, find the following when the rod slides on the loop. (a) The current through the rod when it is at a distance of (a/2) from the point A of the loop. (b) Force required to maintain the velocity of the rod at that instant.

Magnetic lines form continuous closed loop. Why ?

A: The magnetic moment of a current carrying planar loop does depend on the space of the loop. R: The magnetic moemnt is a vector quantity.

A uniform circular loop of radius a and resistance R is pulled at a constant velocity v out of a region of a uniform plane of the loop and the velocity are both perpendicular to B. Then the electrical power in the circular loop at the instant when the arc (of the circular loop) outside the region of magnetic field subtends an angle (pi)/(3) at the centre of the loop is

(a) A closed loop is held stationary in the magnetic field between the north and south poles of two permanent magnets held fixed. Can we hope to generate current in the loop by using very strong magnets? (b) A closed loop moves normal to the constant electric field between the plates of a large capacitor. Is a current induced in the loop (i) when it is wholly inside the region between the capacitor plates (ii) when it is partially outside the plates of the capacitor? The electric field is normal to the plane of the loop. (c) A rectangular loop and a circular loop are moving out of a uniform magnetic field region (Fig. 6.8) to a field-free region with a constant velocity v. In which loop do you expect the induced emf to be constant during the passage out of the field region? The field is normal to the loops. (d) Predict the polarity of the capacitor in the situation described by Fig. 6.9.
