What is the difference between parallel and series

1 answer:

5 0

In a series circuit, the sum of the voltages consumed by each individual resistance is equal to the source voltage. ... In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents flowing through each component.

Which best describes a major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes? they are centered at the poles?

Arturiano [62]

<span>A major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes is that they are located in the same geographic area. Most earthquakes are along the edges of tectonic plates. This is where most volcanoes are too. Most earthquakes directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma.</span>

Two long, parallel, current-carrying wires lie in an xy-plane. The first wire lies on the line y = 0.300 m and carries a current

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the wires attract each other , the direction of current will be same in both the wires .

Let I be current in wire which is along x - axis

force of attraction per unit length between the two current carrying wire is given by

$\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}$ x $\frac{2 I_1\times I_2}{d}$

where I₁ and I₂ are currents in the wires and d is distance between the two

Putting the given values

285 x 10⁻⁶ = 10⁻⁷ x $\frac{2\times25.5\times I_2}{.3}$

I₂ = 16.76 A

Current in the wire along x axis is 16.76 A

To find point where magnetic field is zero due the these wires

The point will lie between the two wires as current is in the same direction.

Let at y = y , the neutral point lies

k 2 x $\frac{16.76}{y}$ = k 2 x $\frac{25.5}{.3-y}$

25.5y = 16.76 x .3 - 16.76y

42.26 y = 5.028

y = .119

= .12 m
