In order to calculate the thermal energy, first let's calculate the power, using the formula:

$P=\frac{V^2}{R}$

For a voltage V = 9 Volts and a resistance R = 50 ohms, we have:

$\begin{gathered} P=\frac{9^2}{50} \\ P=\frac{81}{50}=1.62\text{ W} \end{gathered}$

Now, multiplying the power by the time (in seconds), we can find the energy:

$\begin{gathered} E=P\cdot t \\ E=1.62\cdot7.5\cdot60 \\ E=729\text{ J} \end{gathered}$

In scientific notation, we have an energy of 7.3 * 10^2 J, therefore the correct option is the fourth one.

We want to construct a solenoid with a resistance of 4.30 Ω and generate a magnetic field of 3.70 × 10−2 T at its center when ap

marshall27 [118]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Resistance of solenoid,R=4.3 ohm

Magnetic field,B= $3.7\times 10^{-2} T$

Current,I=4.6 A

Diameter of wire,d=0.5 mm= $0.5\times 10^{-3} m$

Radius of wire,r= $\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.5\times 10^{-3}}{2}=0.25\times 10^{-3} m$

$1mm=10^{-3} m$

Radius of solenoid,r'=1 cm= $1\times 10^{-2} m$

$1 cm=10^{-2} m$

Resistivity of copper, $\rho=1.68\times 10^{-8}\Omega m$

We know that

$R=\frac{\rho l}{A}$

Where $A=\pi r^2$

Using the formula

$4.3=\frac{1.68\times 10^{-8}\times l}{\pi(0.25\times 10^{-3})^2}$

$l=\frac{4.3\times \pi(0.25\times 10^{-3})^2}{1.68\times 10^{-8}}=50.23 m$

Number of turns of wire= $\frac{l}{2\pi r'}$

Number of turns of wire= $\frac{50.26}{2\pi(1\times 10^{-2}}=800$

Hence, the number of turns of the solenoid,N=799

Magnetic field in solenoid,B= $\mu_0 nI$

$3.7\times 10^{-2}=4\pi\times 10^{-7} n\times 4.6$

$n=\frac{3.7\times 10^{-2}}{4\times 3.14\times 10^{-7}\times 4.6}$

$n=6404 turns/m$

$n=\frac{N}{L}$

$L=\frac{N}{n}$

$L=\frac{799}{6404}$

$L=0.125 m=0.125\times 100=12.5 cm$

Length of solenoid=12.5 cm

1m=100 cm

Explain how the potential energy of two charged particles depends on the distance between the charged particles and on the magni

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

According to Coulomb's Law, the potential energy of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between the charges

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's Law, the potential energy of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between the charges. Since the potential energy of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges, its magnitude increases as the charges of the particles increases. For like charges, the potential energy is positive(the product of the two alike charges must be positive) and since potential energy is inversely proportional to the distance between the charges therefore it decreases as the particles get farther apart . For opposite charges, the potential energy is negative(the product of the two opposite charges must be negative) and since potential energy is inversely proportional to the distance between the two charges, it becomes more negative as the particles get closer together.
