Answer:

I = 37.5\ A

Explanation:

Given,

Magnetic field,B = 0.5 x 10⁻⁴ T

distance,r= 15 cm = 0.15 m

Current = ?

Using Ampere's law of magnetic field

B = \dfrac{\mu_0I}{2\pi r}

I= \dfrac{B (2\pi r)}{\mu_0}

I= \dfrac{0.5\times 10^{-4}\times (2\pi \times 0.15)}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}}

I = 37.5\ A

Current in the wire is equal to I = 37.5\ A

Which can be observed both on Earth and in an accelerating ship in space that is free from the effect of any gravitational field
Reil [10]

Answer:

  • apples falling from trees
  • people's feet touching the ground
  • sky divers moving toward the ground  
  • balls bending downward after being thrown​

Explanation:

When a space ship is accelerating in space, there is a force known as Inertia that kicks in. Inertia will mirror the effects of gravity on the ship even if there is no gravitational field effect such that anything that would happen where there is gravity, would continue to happen.

This means that apples will fall from trees, people's feet will touch the ground, sky divers will be pulled downwards and balls will bend downwards when thrown as well. These are the same effects expected on earth where gravity pulls things towards the earth's core.

The acceleration of a train moving from rest and its speed reaches 36m/sec in 9 sec​
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

4 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration is defined as: Δv/Δt (the difference of the velocity over a time period in which happens that difference).

Remember that a difference is calculated by subtracting the initial value of a physical quantity from its final value.

In our case:

Δv = Vfinal - Vinitial = 36m/s - 0 m/s = 36m/s

Δt = 9s

a = Δv/Δt = 36m/s / 9s = 4m/s^2

Tim's car breaks down just down the street from his house. he and his friends decide to try to push it to his house. using newto
daser333 [38]
Pushing a broke down car, even done by more than one person, is difficult especially if the distance to be covered is quite far. A car is heavy and it requires a lot of force to start the car moving. This is because the inertia of the car to remain at rest is great. Additionally, the force applied in pushing the car must be greater than the frictional force to cause it to accelerate. The frictional force is dependent on the mass of the object which means that the frictional force acting on the car is also great. Finally, with every push of the car, the frictional force will always be present and acting on the opposite direction. The push that will be supplied must be sustained all throughout.

The escape velocity at the surface of Earth is approximately 11 km/s. What is the mass, in units of ME (the mass of the Earth),
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:11 km/s

Explanation:

Given

Escape velocity at the surface of earth is 11 km/s

Escape velocity is given by

V_e=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

Escape velocity at the surface of earth

11=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}--------------------1

If Escape velocity is three times and the radius is also the three times

V_e_2=\sqrt{\frac{2G(3M)}{3R}}

V_e_2=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}=V_e

i.e. V_e_2=11 km/s
