Answer:

(A). The magnetic field is zero at 0.8 cm.

(B). The magnetic field is zero at 5.56 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current in first wire I = 6.0 A

Current in second wire = 2.6 A

Distance x_{1}=-2.2 cm

Distance x_{2}=+2.2\ cm

(A). We need to calculate the magnetic field

If the currents are in the same direction

The magnetic field is in both wires

B_{1}=B_{2}

\dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{1}}{2\pi(r)}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{2}}{2\pi(x-r)}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{I_{1}}{(r)}=\dfrac{I_{2}}{4.4-r}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{6.0}{r}=\dfrac{2.6}{4.4-r}

x = \dfrac{6.0\times4.4}{8.6}

x =3.0\ cm

The point where the magnetic field is zero

x = 3.0-2.2 = 0.8\ cm

The magnetic field is zero at 0.8 cm.

(B). We need to calculate the point where the magnetic field zero

If the currents are in the opposite direction

The magnetic field is in both wires

B_{1}=B_{2}

\dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{1}}{2\pi(r)}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{2}}{2\pi(x+r)}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{I_{1}}{(r)}=\dfrac{I_{2}}{4.4+r}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{6.0}{r}=\dfrac{2.6}{4.4+r}

x = \dfrac{6.0\times4.4}{3.4}

x =7.76\ cm

The point where the magnetic field is zero

x = 7.76-2.2 = 5.56\ cm

The magnetic field is zero at 5.56 cm.

Hence, This is the required solution.

What is the average speed of an object with a total distance traveled of 45 meters in 50 seconds
Anettt [7]

Answer: 0.9m/s

Explanation:

Use equation for speed:

V=S/t

S-distance; S=45m

t-time; t=50 s

V=S/t

V=45m/50s

V=0.9 m/s

A 2kg block has 70J of KE. It then travels 1.5 meters up a hill. As it travels up the hill friction does -12J of work on the blo
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

v = 5.34[m/s]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This theorem tells us that the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work on or performed by a body must be equal to the mechanical energy in the final state.

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of energies, kinetic, potential, and elastic.

E₁ = mechanical energy at initial state [J]

E_{1}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}+E_{elas}\\

In the initial state, we only have kinetic energy, potential energy is not had since the reference point is taken below 1.5[m], and the reference point is taken as potential energy equal to zero.

In the final state, you have kinetic energy and potential since the car has climbed 1.5[m] of the hill. Elastic energy is not available since there are no springs.

E₂ = mechanical energy at final state [J]

E_{2}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}

Now we can use the first statement to get the first equation:

E_{1}+W_{1-2}=E_{2}

where:

W₁₋₂ = work from the state 1 to 2.

E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

h = elevation = 1.5 [m]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

70 - 12 = \frac{1}{2}*2*v^{2}+2*9.81*1.5

58 = v^{2} +29.43\\v^{2} =28.57\\v=\sqrt{28.57}\\v=5.34[m/s]

2. How have human activities and natural processes influenced the gradual or sudden change in global temperature? (You need a mi
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Human activities and natural processes have influenced the change in the global temperature by the following processes

1) Green house gas such as carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels the use of  industrial chemicals, the production of coal, and natural gas

2) Deforestation which reduces the natural process of conversion of carbon dioxide to oxygen, thereby, increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere

3) The accumulation of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere results in the trapping of heat in the atmosphere, causing the atmospheric temperature to rise

4) Changes in the amount of energy produced by the Sun can result in an increase or decrease in the atmospheric temperature

5) Volcanic activity that occurs at a sufficiently large scale can produce sulfur dioxide that blocks the rays of the Sun from reaching the Earth, resulting in a change of atmospheric temperature.

The behaviour that has just been displayed by the girl is an example of a learned behavior.

<h3>What is learned behaviour?</h3>

The term learned behaviour has to do with those behaviour that the individual acquires by practise and are not innate in the organism. The ability to drink a large amount of water without breathing is not inate in man.

Hence, the behaviour that has just been displayed by the girl is an example of a learned behavior.
