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.

A sound wave is passing by a student 250 times every second. What is the frequency of the sound wave?
inysia [295]
My answer i believe is simply 250 Hz, because sounds or vibrations travel in 1 cycle/second, meaning the number of cycles, in your case 250, divided by the time,1 second, will ultimately be 250 Hertz.  For every Cycle/second it will equal 1 Hz, so 250/1 = 250Hz

If the airman had a mass of 80 kg, find the magnitude of the air drag acting on him when he reached terminal velocity of 54 m/s
Vlad1618 [11]

The magnitude of the air drag is 784 N

Explanation:

An object falling down reaches the terminal velocity when the magnitude of the air drag acting on it becomes equal to the weight of the object. Mathematically, this condition can be written as:

F_D = mg

where

F_D is the magnitude of the air drag

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

In this problem, we have

m = 80 kg is the mass of the airman

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Substituting into the formula, we find:

F_D = (80)(9.8)=784 N
