QUESTION:

Problem 14CQ

List two electrical applications that would benefit from room-temperature superconductors. List two applications for which room-temperature superconductivity would not be beneficial.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

Here we need to list two electrical applications for which the room-temperature superconductors would benefit.

Electrical Power transmission

If superconductors at room temperature are benefitted, the resistance of the wire can be decreased significantly. So that the electrical loss during long transmission can be reduced.

Magnetic resonance imaging

Room temperature superconductors will be benefitted in MRI machines in order to cool the magnets to low temperature.

A physical pendulum consists of an 85-cm-long, 240-g-mass, uniform wooden rod hung from a nail near one end (Fig. 14-38). The motion is damped because of friction in the pivot; the damping force is approximately t proportional to d6/dt. The rod is set in oscillation by displacing it 15 from its equil
