1. (10 points) In a science project, you plan to apply the knowledge of PHYS 212 to construct a generator and transformer to power your laptop. Suppose you will make use of the Earth’s magnetic field. Assume it has a strength of 0.040 T at your location. Your generator design calls for a coil of 5000 windings rotated at exactly 120 Hz. The coil is oriented so that the normal to the area lines up with the Earth’s field at the end of each cycle. (a) Find out the coil diameter in order to generate a maximum voltage of 170 V (required in order to average 120 V). (4 points) (b) Design a transformer that allows you to use the "electricity" from your generator to power up your laptop. Your laptop requires a voltage of about 15 V. Specify clearly the turn ratio between primary and secondary coils. Draw a schematic plot of the windings. (6 points)

Acentrifuge in a medical laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3,700 rev/min. when switched off, it rotates through 54.0 revolutions before coming to rest. find the constant angular acceleration (in rad/s2) of the centrifuge. your response is within 10% of the correct value. this may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. rad/s2

Why does the equilibrium position of the spring change when a mass is added to the spring? will the mass oscillate around the new equilibrium position of the spring or the previous position without a mass attached to the spring? if the equilibrium position of the spring changes by 20 cm (assuming no initial mass) when a mass is added to the spring with constant 4.9 kg/s^2, what is the mass of the object attached to the spring?
