An electric motor is plugged into a standard wall socket and is running at normal speed. Suddenly, some dirt prevents the shaft of the motor from turning quite so rapidly. What happens to the back emf of the motor, and what happens to the current that the motor draws from the wall socket?

a.) The back emf decreases, and the current drawn from the socket decreases.
b.) The back emf increases, and the current drawn from the socket decreases.
c.) The back emf decreases, and the current drawn from the socket increases.
d.) The back emf increases, and the current drawn from the socket increases.

Which of the following are considered noble gases? a. bromine b. neon c. argon d. chlorine

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?

Considering only the earth's rotation, determine how much later the asteroid would have had to arrive to put the explosion above helsinki at longitude 25˚ e? this would have obliterated the city.
