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.

Why do most carnivores live in forest? given reason ​
kotegsom [21]

\huge\purple{Hi!}

most carnivore live in forest because

  1. They are highly dependent on flesh for their food and therefore their food is easily available in forests.
  2. Small animals live in forests that make it the ideal habitat for carnivores.
  3. Carnivores help in maintaining the herbivore population at a healthy level, by hunting.
  4. It all helps in keeping ecosystems in balance.

100 joule of heat produced each 1 secomd on 4ohm find the potential difference ​
irakobra [83]

Answer:

20 V

Explanation:

Power is 100 J/s or 100 W.

We know that P = IV = \frac{V^{2} }{R} .

Isolate the potential difference. V = \sqrt{RP} = \sqrt{100 * 4} = 20 V
