Answer:

Explanation:

Two straight wires

Have current in opposite direction

i1=i2=i=2Amps

Distance between two wires

r=5mm=0.005m

Length of one wire is ∞

Length of second wire is 0.3m

Force between the wire,

The force between two parallel currents I1 and I2, separated by a distance r, has a magnitude per unit length given by

F/l = μoi1i2/2πr

F/l=μoi²/2πr

μo=4π×10^-7 H/m

The force is attractive if the currents are in the same direction, repulsive if they are in opposite directions.

F/l = μoi1i2/2πr

F/0.3=4π×10^-7×2²/2π•0.005

F/0.3=1.6×10^-4

Cross multiply

F=1.6×10^-4×0.3

F=4.8×10^-5N

A red laser from the physics lab is marked as producing 632.8-nm light. When light from this laser falls on two closely spaced s
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The wavelength is  \lambda_R  =  649 *10^{-9}\ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The wavelength of the red laser is  \lambda_r  =  632.8 \ nm =  632.8 *10^{-9}\ m

    The spacing between  the fringe is  y_r  =  6.00\ mm =  6.00*10^{-3}  \  m

   The spacing between  the fringe for smaller laser point  is  y_R   = 6.19 \ mm =  6.19 *10^{-3} \  m

      Generally the spacing between  the fringe is mathematically represented as

       y  =  \frac{D *  \lambda  }{d}

Here  D is the distance to the screen

    and  d is the distance of the slit separation

Now for both laser red light light and  small laser  point  D and  d are same for this experiment

So

         \frac{y_r}{\lambda_r}  =  \frac{D}{d}

=>      \frac{y_r}{\lambda_r}  = \frac{y_R}{\lambda_R}

Where \lambda_R  is the wavelength produced by the small laser pointer

  So

           \frac{6.0 *10^{-3}}{ 632.8*10^{-9}}  = \frac{ 6.15 *10^{-9}}{\lambda_R}

=>       \lambda_R  =  649 *10^{-9}\ m

For the electric circuit given below, calculate: 3 (i) the equivalent resistance of the circuit, (ii) the total current drawn fr
Daniel [21]

Answer:

1)31/3Ω

2)18/31A

3)4.06V

Explanation:

According to the diagram and 10 Ω resistors are parallel to each other, parallel resistor can be calculated using the formula below

1/R= 1/R1 + 1/R2

But we know R1= 5 Ω and R2= 10 Ω

1/R= 1/5 + 1/10

R= 10/3 Ω

=3.33 Ω

Then if we follow the given figure, 10/3 Ω and 7Ω are now in series then

Req = 10/3 +7

Req= 31/3 Ω

Therefore, equivalent resistance = 31/3 Ω

According to ohms law we know that V= IR

Then I= V/R

Where I= current

R= resistance

V= voltage

I= 6/(31/3)

I= 18/31A

We can now calculate the voltage accross the resistor which is

V=(18/31)× 7

V=4.06V

Therefore, the voltage accross the 7 ohm resistor is 4.06V

What is time taken by the stone ?
SSSSS [86.1K]

The time taken by the stone to hit the ground would be 5.12 seconds.

<h3>What are the three equations of motion?</h3>

There are three equations of motion given by  Newton

The first equation is given as follows

v = u + at

the second equation is given as follows

S = ut + 1/2×a×t²

the third equation is given as follows

v² - u² = 2×a×s

Keep in mind that these calculations only apply to uniform acceleration.

As given in the problem, a stone is dropped from the helicopter which is ascending at the speed of 19.6 m/s

height(S) = 156.8 meters

initial velocity(u) = -19.6 m/s

acceleration(a) = 9.81 m/s²

By using the second equation of motion given by newton

S = ut + 1/2at²

S = 156.8m ,u= -19.6 m/s , a= 9.81 m/s² and t =? seconds

156.8= -19.6t + 9.81t²

t = 5.12 seconds

Thus, the time taken by the stone to hit the ground would be 5.12 seconds.
