What are the differences between a magnetic and gravitational interaction

1 answer:

3 0

Classically, gravitational attraction is due to the masses of objects. It is inversely proportional to the square of the distances between the objects.

Magnetic attraction is due to the magnetism in objects which is due to uncompensated electron spins in certain atoms. The force due to magnetism less easy to put into one equation than gravity since magnetic fields can have different shapes, but the simplest one (the dipolar field) is inversely proportional to the cube of the distance between the magnetic dipoles.

Two long parallel wires are separated by forty centimeters and carry oppositely-directed currents of ten amperes. Find the magni

Softa [21]

Answer:

1.04μT

Explanation:

Due to both wires have opposite currents, the magnitude of the total magnetic field is given by

$B_T=\frac{\mu_o I}{2 \pi r_1}-\frac{\mu_o I}{2 \pi r_2}$

I: electric current = 10A

mu_o: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4pi*10^{-7} N/A^2

r1: distance from wire 1 to the point in which B is measured.

r2: distance from wire 2.

The distance between wires is 40cm = 0.4m. Hence, r1=0.2m r2=0.6m

By replacing in the formula you obtain:

$B_T=\frac{(4\pi *10^{-7}N/A^2)(10A)}{2\pi}(\frac{1}{0.4m}-\frac{1}{0.6m})=1.04*10^{-6}T =1.04\mu T$

hence, the magnitude of the magnetic field is 1.04μT

Daffy Duck is standing 6.8 m away from Minnie Duck. The attractive gravitational force between them is 5.4x10-8 N. If Daffy Duck

artcher [175]

Answer:

432.78 Kg

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance apart (r) = 6.8 m

Force of attraction (F) = 5.4×10¯⁸ N

Mass of Daffy Duck (M₁) = 86.5 kg

Mass of Minnie Duck (M₂) =?

NOTE: Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

The mass of Minnie Duck can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

5.4×10¯⁸ = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ / 6.8²

5.4×10¯⁸ = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ / 46.24

Cross multiply

6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5 × M₂ =5.4×10¯⁸ × 46.24

Divide both side by 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5

M₂ = 5.4×10¯⁸ × 46.24 / 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 86.5

M₂ = 432.78 Kg

Therefore, the mass of Minnie Duck is 432.78 Kg

Bobo, the clown, wants to set the world record for the furthest range traveled by a clown shot out of a cannon. Write a sentence

Furkat [3]

Solution:

The world record for the longest flight by a human cannonball is approximately 200 feet and therefore the human cannon catapult that Bobo would need is one that would be able to propel him with an initial velocity of more than 120 kilometer per hour (more than the speed of the current record holder) with the cannon directed at an angle 45 degrees above the horizonal
