The magnetic field midway between the two wires is 5.0*10^{-7} T.

It is given that Two long parallel wires carry currents of 20 A and 5.0 A in opposite directions. The wires are separated by 0.20 m.

We need to determine the magnetic field midway between the two wires.

A magnetic field is a vector field that describes the magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials.

A moving charge in a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its own velocity and to the magnetic field.

Magnetic field is a place in space near a magnet or an electric current where a physical field is created from a moving electric charge that creates force on another moving electric charge.

B=B1+B2

=\frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*20 }{2\pi R1} +\frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*5 }{2\pi R2}

= \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*20 }{2\pi *0.10} +\frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*5 }{2\pi *0.10}

= 5.0*10^{-7} T

Hence, the magnetic field midway between the two wires is 5.0*10^{-7} T

A telephone pole has three cables pulling as shown from above, with F⃗ 1=(300.0iˆ+500.0jˆ) , F⃗ 2=−200.0iˆ , and F⃗ 3=−800.0jˆ .
Ray Of Light [21]

A) Net force in component form: F=100.0i-300.0j

B) Magnitude of the net force: 316.2, direction: -71.6^{\circ}

Explanation:

A)

The three forces given in this problem are:

F_1=300i+500j

F_2=-200i

F_3=-800 j

The three forces are given in component form, where the components with unit vector i is the component along the x-direction, while the components with unit vector j is the component along the y-direction.

In order to find the net force in component form, we just need to add the components of the three forces along each direction. Therefore:

- Along the x-direction:

F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}+F_{3x}=300+(-200)+0=100

- Along the y-direction:

F_y=F_{1y}+F_{2y}+F_{3y}=500+0+(-800)=-300

So, the net force in component form is

F=100.0i-300.0j

B)

The magnitude of a vector F is given by Pythagorean's theorem:

|F|=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

where in this problem,

F_x=100 is the x-component

F_y=-300 is the y-component

Substituting,

|F|=\sqrt{(100)^2+(-300)^2}=316.2

The direction instead is given by

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{-300}{100})=-71.6^{\circ}

where the negative sign means the direction is below the positive x-axis.

If a quantity of heat equal to the magnitude of the change in mechanical energy of the water goes into the water, what is its in
Flauer [41]
Increase in temperature of water = 0.53 °C
Explanation:
Change in mechanical energy = Potential energy
Potential energy = mgh
Mass, m = Mass of 1 L water = 1 kg
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²
Height, h = 225 m
Potential energy = 1 x 9.81 x 225 = 2207.25 J
Because of this 2207.25 J water gets heated.
Heat energy, E = mcΔT
Mass, m = Mass of 1 L water = 1 kg
Specific heat of water, c = 4200 J/kg/C
Energy, E = 2207.25 J
Change in temperature, ΔT = ?
Substituting
2207.25 = 1 x 4200 x ΔT
ΔT = 0.53 °C
Increase in temperature of water = 0.53 °C

Amanda [17]
The distance that is traveled by the astronaut given that the motion is free-fall can be calculated through the equation,

    d = Vot + 0.5at²

where d is the distance, Vo is the initial velocity, t is the time, and a is the acceleration. Substituting the known,

   6 = (0 m/s)(2.7 s) + 0.5(a)(2.7 s)²

Determining the value of a,
    a = 1.646 m/s²

ANSWER: 1.646 m/s²

Would you expect to weigh more on an ocean beach or on top of a mountain? Explain.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

An Ocean beach

Explanation:

a Ocean beach is far heavier than the top of a mountain, despite that a mountain is made with many heavy rocks a Ocean beach may have light sand but the layers of sand and the width would be way heavier then the top of a mountain.
