Answer:
A
Explanation:
Please see the attached picture for the full solution.
Since we are only concerned about the decrease in gravitational potential energy of the car, we look at the decrease in height of the car as it moves from point X to point Y, instead of the distance travelled by the car.
Answer:
a . 0.35cm
b. 11.33cm
Explanation:
a. Given both currents are in the same direction, the null point lies in between them. Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4-x
#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in between the wires:
Hence, for currents in same direction, the point is 0.35cm
b. Given both currents flow in opposite directions, the null point lies on the other side.
#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in outside the wires:
Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4+x:
Hence, if currents are in opposite directions the point on x-axis is 11.33cm
