A person is walking with constant speed vw, with respect to a moving sidewalk at O'Hare. He is walking in the same direction as the moving sidewalk which has speed vMs with respect to the stationary floor of O'Hare. The time it takes him to walk the length D of the moving sidewalk is tForward. For some unknown reason, once he gets off the moving sidewalk, he turns around and walks in the opposite direction of the moving sidewalk at that same constant speed vw with respect to the moving sidewalk, until he finally exits the moving sidewalk at his original entrance. The time it takes him to walk the length of the moving sidewalk on this return leg is tRack What is tForward in terms of vws ms, and D, as needed?

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?

The temperature in gavin's oven is a sinusoidal function of time. gavin sets his oven so that it has a maximum temperature of 280°f and a minimum temperature of 240°. once the temperature hits 280°, it takes 20 minutes before it is 280° again. gavin's cake needs to be in the oven for 30 minutes at temperatures at or above 270°. he puts the cake into the oven when it is at 260° and rising. how long will gavin need to leave the cake in the oven? (round your answer to the nearest minute.)
