A surveyor is using a magnetic compass 5.6 m below a power line in which there is a steady current of 140 A. (a) What is the mag

netic field in microteslas at the site of the compass due to the power line? (b) Will this field interfere seriously with the compass reading? The horizontal component of Earth’s magnetic field at the site is 20 µT.

Answer:

(a) B = 5.6 micro Tesla

Explanation:

Current in the wire, i = 140 A

distance, r = 5 m

The formula for the magnetic field at a distance r due to the current carrying wire

B=\frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi }\times \frac{2i}{r}

B=10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times140}{5}

B = 5.6 x 10^-6 Tesla

B = 5.6 micro Tesla

(b) As the magnetic field of earth at this site is 20 micro tesla so the magnetic field due to current carrying wire interfere the magnetic compass.

An object moves in one dimensional motion with constant acceleration a = 4.2 m/s^2. At time t = 0 s, the object is at x0 = 3.9 m
solong [7]

Answer:

The object will move to Xfinal = 7.5m

Explanation:

By relating the final velocity of the object and its acceleration, I can obtain the time required to reach this velocity point:

Vf= a × t ⇒ t= (7.2 m/s) / (4.2( m/s^2)) = 1,7143 s

With the equation of the total space traveled and the previously determined time I can obtain the end point of the object on the x-axis:

Xfinal= X0 + /1/2) × a × (t^2) = 3.9m + (1/2) × 4.2( m/s^2) × ((1,7143 s) ^2) =

= 3.9m + 3.6m = 7.5m

What is the voltage, V2, in units of Volts, across resistor R2 in the circuit shown below where VS = 4V, R1 = 14 Ohms and R2 = 3
svetlana [45]
<h2>Correct answer:</h2>

\boxed{v_{out}=2,85V}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

We can use voltage divider to solve this problem that is defined as the passive linear circuit producing an output voltage v_{out} that is a fraction of its input voltage v_{in}. So we can use the formula:

v_{out}=\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}+R_{2}}v_{in}, \ where \ v_{in}=v_{s}=4V \\ \\ \therefore v_{out}=\frac{35}{14+35}(4) \\ \\ \therefore v_{out}=2,85V
