A current of 1.41 A in a long, straight wire produces a magnetic field of 5.61 uT at a certain distance from the wire. Find
pshichka [43]

Answer:

0.050 m

Explanation:

The strength of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

where

\mu_0=4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} H/m is the vacuum permeability

I is the current in the wire

r is the distance from the wire

And the magnetic field around the wire forms concentric circles, and it is tangential to the circles.

In this problem, we have:

I=1.41 A (current in the wire)

B=5.61\mu T=5.61\cdot 10^{-6} T (strength of magnetic field)

Solving  for r, we find the distance  from the wire:

r=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi B}=\frac{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7})(1.41)}{2\pi (5.61\cdot 10^{-6})}=0.050 m

A descent vehicle landing on the moon has a vertical velocity toward the surface of the moon of 29.6 m/s. At the same time, it h
inessss [21]

If the vertical component is 29.6 m/s down, and the horizontal component
is 54.8 m/s parallel to the surface, then the magnitude of the slanty vector is

   √(29.6² + 54.8²) = √(876.16 + 3003.04) = √3879.2  =  62.28 m/s .

That's 139 mph !  Wow !

0.250 moles of gas are in a piston.The gas does 109 J of work while 240 J of heat are added. What is the change in internal ener
irina [24]

Answer:

+131Joules

Explanation:

Energy can be expressed using below expresion.

ΔE = (q + w).........eqn(1)

q will be + be if heat is gained hence, q= 240 J

work "w" will be - ve if work is done by the system, hence w= -109 J

Then substitute into eqn(1)

Change in Internal energy=

= (240 -109 )

= +131J

Which is the one factor that adds to the greenhouse effect? 1. a decrease in the amount of dust in the atmosphere 2. a decrease
lukranit [14]

Answer:

an increase in gasses that absorb heat

Explanation:

Greenhouse effect refers to the gradual increase in the earth's temperature due to an increase in the concentration of certain gases in the atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases and they include; water vapour, nitrogen 1 oxide, carbon IV oxide etc. Green house effect is said to occur when heat radiating outwards from the earth surface towards space is trapped close to the earth's surface due to the presence of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Greenhouse effect leads to increase in the temperature of the earth, melting of polar ice caps and possibly flooding due to a rise in sea levels.

Greenhouse gases act as glass in a greenhouse. They allow heat to pass through onto the earth surface but trap the heat and prevent it from being radiated outwards back to space. Thereby increasing the surface temperature of the earth.

A child in danger of drowning in a river is being carried downstream by a current that flows due south uniformly with a speed of
tia_tia [17]

Let the rescue boat starts at an angle theta with the North

now its velocity towards East is given as

v_x = 24sin\theta

v_y = -24cos\theta + 3

now in some time "t" it will catch the boy

so we will have

t = \frac{0.5}{24sin\theta}

also we have

t = \frac{2}{-24cos\theta + 3}

now we have

\frac{2}{-24cos\theta + 3} = \frac{0.5}{24sin\theta}

4*24sin\theta = - 24cos\theta + 3

96 sin\theta + 24cos\theta = 3

by solving above we got

\theta = 164 degree
