Explanation:

It is given that, there are two points situated above a current-carrying wire. Point B is located at a distance R from the wire, which is twice as far from the wire as point A such that,

r_B=R

And r_A=R/2

We know that the magnetic field at a distance R is inversely proportional to the distance from wire as :

B=\dfrac{\mu_o}{2\pi}\dfrac{I}{r}

B_A\propto\dfrac{1}{(R/2)}

B_B\propto\dfrac{1}{(R)}

\dfrac{B_A}{B_B}=\dfrac{1/(R/2)}{1/R}

\dfrac{B_A}{B_B}=\dfrac{2}{1}

B_A=2B_B

So, the magnetic field at point A larger than the magnetic field at point B by a factor of 2. Hence, this is the required solution.

12. A volcano erupts on Earth's surface causing a piece of rock with a mass of 95 kg to be ejected from rest to an acceleration
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The force exerted on the rock by the eruption is, D. 902.5 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the rock ejected by the volcano, m = 95 kg

The acceleration of the ejected rock, a 9.5 m/s²

The force acting on an object is defined as the product of the mass and its acceleration. It is given by the relation,

                                 F = m x a

                                    = 95 x 9.5

                                    = 902.5 N

Hence, the force exerted on the rock by the eruption is, F = 902.5 N

A football player is running with a velocity or 10 m/s. At that velocity, his momentum is 2500 kg*m/s. What is the football play
DedPeter [7]

The mass of the football player is 250 kg.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity. So here the velocity (v) is given as 10 m/s and the momentum is given as 2500 kg m /s. So we can determine the mass (m) of the player by substituting the known terms in the formula of determining momentum as shown below.

             \text {Momentum}(p)=m \times v

As we know the value of momentum and velocity, the mass can be found as,

             m=\frac{p}{v}=\frac{2500}{10}=250 \mathrm{kg}

Thus, the mass of the football player is found to be 250 kg.

A toaster using a Nichrome heating element operates on 120 V. When it is switched on at 28 ∘С, the heating element carries an in
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The final temperature of the element = 262.67°C

The power dissipated in the heating element initially = 163.21 W

The power dissipated in the heating element when the current reaches 1.23 A = 147.60 W

Explanation:

Our given parameters include;

A Nichrome heating element operates on 120 V.

Voltage (V) = 120V

Initial Current (I₁) = 1.36 A

Initial Temperature (T₁) = 28°C

Final Current (I₂) = 1.23 A

Final Temperature (T₂) = unknown ????

Temperature dependencies of resistance is given by:

R_{T(2)}=R_1[1+\alpha (T_2-T_1)]            ----------------------    (1)

in which R₁ is the resistance at temperature T₁

R_{T(2) is the resistance at temperature T₂

Given that V= IR

R = \frac{V}{I}

Therefore, the resistance at temperature 28°C is;

R_{28}= \frac{120V}{1.36A}

= 88.24Ω

R_{T(2) = \frac{120V}{1.23A}

= 97.56Ω

From (1) above;

R_{T(2)}=R_1[1+\alpha (T_2-T_1)]      

97.56 = 88.24 [ 1 + 4.5×10⁻⁴(°C)⁻¹(T₂-28°C)]

\frac{97.56}{88.24}= 1+(4.5*10^{-4})(T-28^0C)

1.1056 - 1 = 4.5×10⁻⁴(°C)⁻¹(T₂-28°C)

0.1056 = 4.5×10⁻⁴(T₂-28°C)

\frac{0.1056}{4.5*10^{-4}}= T-28^0C

T - 28° C = 234.67

T = 234.67 + 28° C

T = 262.67 ° C

(b)

What is the power dissipated in the heating element initially and when the current reaches 1.23 A

The power dissipated in the heating element initially can be calculated as:

P = I²₁R₂₈

P = (1.36A)²(88.24Ω)

P = 163.209 W

P ≅ 163.21 W

The power dissipated in the heating element when the current reaches 1.23 A can be calculated as:

P= I^2_2R_{T^0C

P = (1.23)²(97.56Ω)

P = 147.598524

P ≅ 147.60 W

An object has a kinetic energy of 275 j and the momentum of magnitude of 25.0 kg m/s. find the speed and mass of the object
lyudmila [28]
<span>Recall formula for Kinetic energy is: KE = 1/2mv^2, where KE = 275J and momentum (which is 25.0 kg m/s) = m*v Therefore substitute for KE and mv in the equation above to get speed => 275 = 0.5 * 25 * v v = 275/12.5 v = 22m/s to get mass m, recall momentum = m*v => 25= 22*m m= 25/22 = 1.3663kg</span>
