CaS is the empirical formula of the compound between calcium and sulphur that has the percent composition 55.6.

When percentages are given, we take a total mass of 100 grams.

Therefore the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of Ca = 55.6 g (given) of

S Mass = 44.4 g (100 - 55.6 = 44.4)

Step 1: Convert the given mass to moles.

moles Ca = given mass Ca / molar mass Ca

moles = 55.6 / 40 = 1.39 moles

mol S = specific mass S / molar mass S

mol = 44.4 / 32 = 1.39 mol

Step 2: Divide the molar ratio of each molar value by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Ca = 1.39 / 1.39 = 1

For S = 1.39 / 1.39 = 1

The ratio of Ca : S = 1:1

Hence the empirical formula of the given compound will be CaS.

A long wire carrying a 5.0 A current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x= - 2.0 cm . A second, parallel wir
mario62 [17]

Answer:

a . 0.35cm

b.  11.33cm

Explanation:

a. Given both currents are in the same direction, the null point lies in between them. Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4-x

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in between the wires:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi(4-x)}\\\\5/x=\frac{3.5}{4-x}\\\\x=2.35cm\\\\N=2.35-2=0.35cm

Hence, for currents in same direction, the point is 0.35cm

b. Given both currents flow in opposite directions, the null point lies on the other side.

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in outside the wires:

Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4+x:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi(4+ x)}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi x}\\\\5/(4+x)=\frac{3.5}{x}\\\\x=9.33cm\\\\N=9.33+2=11.33cm

Hence, if currents are in opposite directions the point on x-axis is 11.33cm
