Force can be represented by

Two long, parallel wires are separated by a distance of 2.60 cm. The force per unit length that each wire exerts on the other is

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

10.75 A

The current is in opposite direction since it causes a repulsion force between the wires

Explanation:

Force per unit length on the wires = 4.30×10^−5 N/m

distance between wires = 2.6 cm = 0.026 m

current through one wire = 0.52 A

current on the other wire = ?

Recall that the force per unit length of two wires conducting and lying parallel and close to each other is given as

$F/l$ = $\frac{u_{0}I_{1} I_{2} }{2\pi r }$

where $F/l$ is the force per unit length on the wires

$u_{0}$ = permeability of vacuum = 4π × 10^−7 T-m/A

$I_{1}$ = current on the first wire = 0.520 A

$I_{2}$ = current on the other wire = ?

r = the distance between the two wire = 0.026 m

substituting the value into the equation, we have

4.30×10^−5 = $\frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*0.520*I_{2} }{2\pi *0.026}$ = $\frac{ 2*10^{-7}*0.520*I_{2} }{0.026}$

4.30×10^−5 = 4 x 10^-6 $I_{2}$

$I_{2}$ = (4.30×10^-5)/(4 x 10^-6) = 10.75 A

The current is in opposite direction since it causes a repulsion force between the wires.

Water moves to the top of tall trees because of _____.

abruzzese [7]

Hello!

Answer- Capillary action and evaporation. It's not just the capillary action, but the pull from transpiration (the evaporation of water from the tree) that is used to pull water up from the roots. This is why the correct answer is option C) capillary action and evaporation.

Hope this helps! Have a great day,

A highway patrolman traveling at the speed limit is passed by a car going 20 mph faster than the speed limit. After one minute,

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

It will take 40 seconds to catch the speeding car

Explanation:

Initial speed of the patrolman = 55 mph

after one minute speed of patrol man = 115 mph

now acceleration of patrolman is given by
