Answer:

 I = 0.44 A

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a conductor is given by the expression

       F = I L x B

Where bold letters indicate vectors, I is the current, L is the vector in the direction of the current, and B is the magnetic field

Since the force is maximum, the wire must be perpendicular to the magnetic field, therefore

        F = I L B sin 90

        I = F / L B

Let's calculate

        I = 1.2 / 1.5 1.8

        I = 0.44 A

Answer:

The current that must be passing through the wire is 0.444 A

Explanation:

Given data:

L = length of straight wire = 1.5 m

F = force = 1.2 N

B = magnetic field = 1.8 T

The force in a straight wire is equal to:

F=ILB\\I=\frac{F}{LB} =\frac{1.2}{1.5*1.8} =0.444A

What is a conservative force?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

A conservative force is a force with the property that the total work done in moving a particle between two points is independent of the path taken Equivalently if a particle travels in a closed loop the total work done by a conservative force is zero

Explain the relationships between gravity, mass, and distance.
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

As the mass of an object increases, its gravitational force increases.

As an object's distance to other objects increases, its gravitational force on those objects increases.

Explanation:

The gravitational force of one object on another is calculated with the equation

F = (G*m1*m2)/(r²),

where G is the gravitational constant,

M1 and M2 are the masses of the two objects, and

r is the distance between them

We can see that the force has a direct relationship with both of the mass values, and an inverse square relationship with the distance between them.

Hope this helped!

The Earth orbits the sun with a speed of about 67000 miles per hour. If the Earth was to suddenly stop, it would
kozerog [31]

Answer: It would destroy the Earth's surface.

I remember reading this questions in What If? by Randall Munroe. Great book, I suggest you check it out. Anyway, the answer. The Earth is revolving as well as spinning on its axis at the same time. This  basically means that thee atmosphere is also spinning at the same speed. But due to the frame of reference, we don't notice anything. If the Earth suddenly stops spinning, then the atmosphere, going according to the first law of motion will still be spinning at the same speed. This would produce supersonic winds at such a scale that it will be compared to an atomic explosion. Anything not in a nuclear bunker will probably be ripped apart by the force of the wind.

Explain three differences between a science and a pseudoscience.
grin007 [14]
1) science does not accept personal story's as evidence, pseudoscience relies on these story's as evidence.
2) science argues from scientific knowledge, pseudoscience argues from ignorance 
3) science progresses, pseudoscience  does not progress
and 4) (just in case) science holds pier review, pseudoscience does not

child mass 25kg moves with speed of 1.5m/s when 7.8 from the central of merry-go round. calculate the centripetal acceleration o
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

0.2885 m/s²

Explanation:

The formula for centripetal acceleration is given as;

a_c=v^2/r

Given that;

speed = v = 1.5m/s

radius = r = 7.8

a_c=v^2/r\\\\\\a_c=1.5^2/7.8\\\\\\a_c=0.2885m/s^{2}
