Electromagnetic Induction: Analyzing a Sliding Wire in a Magnetic Field

Analyzing a Sliding Wire in a Magnetic Field

A wire of length L is sliding with velocity vx > 0 without friction on rails that form part of a circuit with resistance R. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude B points into the paper.

  1. [a] Find the induced emf E and the current I in the circuit, indicating the true positive direction of the current that flows in the sliding wire (up or down on the paper).

  2. [b] Find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on the sliding wire in terms of B, L,

Color Theory: Ranges, Properties, and Applications

Color Ranges

Establish colors that have a relationship with each other, that are close on the chromatic circle.

  • Warm Range: Involves magenta, yellow, red, orange, ochres, and earth tones. These colors evoke feelings of closeness and force.
  • Cold Range: Involves blue, violet, and green. These colors evoke feelings of distance, cold, calm, tranquility, and spirituality.
  • Monochromatic Range: Formed by a single tone, including a scale of that color. For example,

Understanding Polygons, Quadrilaterals, and Polyhedrons

Understanding Polygons

A polygon is a part of a plane delimited by a closed polygonal path (it is called a polygonal region). It can be:

  • Convex: Prolongation of all segments of the polygonal path divides the plane into two semi-planes, and the polygonal path is all in the same semi-plane.
  • Concave: Prolongation of at least one segment of the polygonal path divides the plane into two parts, each one in different semi-planes.
  • Regular: When all the sides and angles are equal.

Technical Drawing Labeling: Standards and Tools

Definition of Labeling

Definition: Labeling is the art of writing letters and numbers according to established standards.

Background of Labeling

Background of the labeling: In the late nineteenth century, C.W. Reinhardt, former chief designer of the Engineering News, recognized the need for a simple and readable font using basic lines. This led to the development of upper and lowercase alphabets based on Gothic letters and a systematic series of strokes.

Standardization of Letters
