The direction of the magnetic field around a wire depends on
the direction of the current flowing through the wire.  When you
change the direction of the current in the wire, the direction of the
magnetic field around it also changes direction.

The current in every electric cord in your house changes its direction
120 times every second.  So the magnetic field around every electric
cord in your house also changes its direction 120 times every second.

Two poles are connected by a wire that is also connected to the ground. The first pole is 20ft tall and the second pole is 10ft
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: 31.6ft

Explanation:

Check the attachment for the diagram.

According to the right angle triangle AEC, we will use Pythagoras theorem to get |AC|. Note that |AE| = |AB| - |CD|

that is 20ft - 10ft = 10ft

According to the theorem, the square of the sum of the adjacent side and the opposite side is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

|AE|^2 + |EC|^2 = |AC|^2

10^2 + 30^2 = |AC|^2

100 + 900 = |AC|^2

|AC| = √1000

|AC| = 31.6ft

Therefore, the wire should be anchored 31.6ft to the ground to minimize the amount of wire needed.

A solid conducting sphere with radius R that carries positive charge Q is concentric with a very thin insulating shell of radius
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The specific question is not stated, however the general idea is given in the attached picture. The electric field in each region can be found by Gauss’ Law.

at r < R:

Since the solid sphere is conducting, the total charge Q is distributed over the surface, and the electric field inside the sphere is zero.

E = 0.

at R < r < 2R:

The electric field can be found by Gauss’ Law as in the attachment. The green pencil shows this exact region.

at 2R < r:

The electric field can again be found by Gauss’ Law, the blue pencil shows the calculations for this region.

Explanation:

Gauss’ Law is straightforward when applied to spheres. The area of the sphere is A = 4\pi r^2, and the enclosed charge is given in the question as Q for the inner sphere, and 2Q for the whole system.

A proton is accelerated from rest through a potential difference V0 and gains a speed v0. If it were accelerated instead through
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

The speed is \sqrt{2}v_{0}.

(a) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Potential difference V= V_{0}

Speed v = v_{o}

If it were accelerated instead

Potential difference V'=2V_{0}

We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of initial work done on proton

W = q V

We know that,

\Delta W=\Delta K.E

q V=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Put the value into the formula

q V_{0}=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{0}^2

v_{0}^2=\dfrac{2qV_{0}}{m}....(I)

If it were accelerated instead through a potential difference of 2 V_{0}, then it would gain a speed will be given as :

Using an above formula,

v_{0}'^2=\dfrac{2qV_{0}}{m}

Put the value of V_{0}

v_{0}'^2=\dfrac{2q\times2V_{0}}{m}

v_{0}'=\sqrt{\dfrac{4qV_{0}}{m}}

v_{0}'=\sqrt{2}v_{0}

Hence, The speed is \sqrt{2}v_{0}.
