Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field halfway between the wires is 3.0 x 10⁻⁵ T.

Explanation:

Given;

distance half way between the parallel wires, r = ¹/₂ (40 cm) = 20 cm = 0.2 m

current carried in opposite direction, I₁ and I₂ = 10 A and 20 A respectively

The magnitude of the magnetic field halfway between the wires can be calculated as;

B = \frac{\mu _oI_1}{2 \pi r} + \frac{\mu_oI_2}{2\pi r}

where;

B is magnitude of the magnetic field halfway between the wires

I₁ is current in the first wire

I₂ is current the second wire

μ₀ is permeability of free space

r is distance half way between the wires

B = \frac{\mu_o I_1}{2\pi r} + \frac{\mu_o I_2}{2\pi r} \\\\B = \frac{\mu_o }{2\pi r} (I_1 +I_2)\\\\B = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7} }{2\pi *0.2} (10 +20) = 3.0 *10^{-5}\  T

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field halfway between the wires is 3.0 x 10⁻⁵ T.

Explain, using the kinetic theory of matter, why liquids and solids are more denser than gases
AlekseyPX
Solid and liquids are much more denser than gas because their molecules are close to each other and with that the molecules of them can't move that freely unlike the gas molecules. Also, because of being near to each other the molecules of solid and liquids became heavy making them dense.

A soap bubble appears red (λ = 633nm) at the point on its front surface nearest to the viewer. Assuming n = 1.35, what is the sm
alexira [117]

Answer:

The smallest film thickness is 117 nm.

Explanation:

Light interference on thin films can be constructive or destructive. Constructive interference is dependent on the film thickness and the refractive index of the medium.

For the first interference (surface nearest to viewer), the minimum thickness can be expressed as:

2t_{min} = \frac{wavelenth}{2n}

where n is the refractive index of the bubble film.

Therefore,

2t_{min} = \frac{633x10^{-9} }{(2)(1.35)}

2t_{min} =2.344x10^{-7}

∴ t_{min} =\frac{2.344x10^{-7} }{2}

t_{min} = 1.17x10^{-7} m = 117 nm.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

9 meter per second square

Explanation:

acceleration equation is final minus initial velocity divided by time in seconds.

36-15/3=9 meter per second square.
