Two long, parallel wires carry currents of different magnitudes. if the amount of current in each wire is doubled, what happens

to the magnitude of the force between the wires
Physics
1 answer:
Mrac [35]3 years ago
4 0
The force per unit of length between two wires carrying current is
\frac{F}{L}= \frac{\mu_0 I_1 I_2}{2 \pi r}
where I1 and I2 are the currents in the two wires, while r is the distance between them.

We can see from the formula that the force is proportional to the product between I1 and I2: F \sim I_1 I_2
so, if we double both I1 and I2, we get a factor 4:
F' \sim (2I_1 )(2I_2)=4 I_1 I_2 =4 F
so, the force between the wires will be 4 times the original value.

A spherical asteroid of average density would have a mass of 8.7×1013kg if its radius were 2.0 km. 1. If you and your spacesuit
Law Incorporation [45]

1. 0.16 N

The weight of a man on the surface of asteroid is equal to the gravitational force exerted on the man:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M=8.7\cdot 10^{13}kg is the mass of the asteroid

m = 100 kg is the mass of the man

r = 2.0 km = 2000 m is the distance of the man from the centre of the asteroid

Substituting, we find

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11}m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})\frac{(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)(110 kg)}{(2000 m)^2}=0.16 N

2. 1.7 m/s

In order to stay in orbit just above the surface of the asteroid (so, at a distance r=2000 m from its centre), the gravitational force must be equal to the centripetal force

m\frac{v^2}{r}=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where v is the minimum speed required to stay in orbit.

Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)}{2000 m}}=1.7 m/s

3 bulbs are in series and the same 3 bulbs are in parallel with the same battery. Which bulbs will be dimmer?
Marina86 [1]

3 bulbs are in series and if the same 3 bulbs are in parallel with the same battery then the bulbs that are connected in parallel  will be dimmer

<h3>What is power?</h3>

The rate of doing work is known as power. The Si unit of power is the watt.

Power =work/time

The mathematical expression for the electric power is as follows

P = VI  

The same current flows through both bulbs when they are connected in series. A greater voltage drop across the bulb with the higher resistance will result in higher power dissipation and brightness. In the case of the parallel combination, the bulb will be dimmer

Thus, If the same three bulbs are connected in series and parallel with the same battery, the parallelly connected bulbs will be dimmer, therefore the correct option is A

Joe first focuses his attention (and his eyes) on the tree. The focal length of the cornea-lens system in his eye must be ______
kotykmax [81]

Answer: The focal length of the cornea-lens system in his eye must be LESS THAN the distance between the front and back of his eye.

Explanation:

The human eye the front part of the eye is the CORNEA. This is the tough white transparent part of the eye that helps in the refraction of light rays. While the backside of the eye is the RETINA. This is the part of the eye when images are focused.

When a normal eye is at rest, parallel rays from a distant object are focused on the retina. The ability of the eye - lens to focus points at different distances on the retina is known as accomodation. The adjustment of the eye lens to focus objects of varying distances is brought about by the ciliary muscles. The have the ability to change the shape of the eye which leads to change in focal length.

When a person with normal vision looks at a distant object at infinity, the lens brings parallel rays to focus on the retina. Thus, the furthest point which the eye can see distinctly is called the far point of the eye and it's infinity for a normal eye. But Joe was able to focus his eye on the tree, meaning that the tree was within his near point. This is the nearest point at which an object is clearly seen. Therefore, when the effective focal length of the cornea-lens system changes, it changes the location of the image of any object in one's field of view.

During a chemical reaction, Bromine (Br) would be expected to
Andrew [12]

Answer:

During a chemical reaction, Bromine (Br) would be expected to  <u><em>gain 1 valence electron to have a full octet.</em></u>

Explanation:

In the periodic table the elements are ordered so that those with similar chemical properties are located close to each other.

The elements are arranged in horizontal rows, called periods, which coincide with the last electronic layer of the element. That is, an element with five electronic shells will be in the fifth period.

The columns of the table are called groups. The elements that make up each group coincide in their electronic configuration of valence electrons, that is, they have the same number of electrons in their last.

The elements tend to resemble the closest noble gases in terms of their electronic configuration of the last layer, that is, having eight electrons in the last layer to be stable.

Bromine belongs to group 17 (VII A), which indicates that it has 7 electrons in its last shell. So bromine requires more energy to lose all 7 electrons and generate stability, than it does to gain 1 electron and fill in 8 electrons to be stable. So:

<u><em>During a chemical reaction, Bromine (Br) would be expected to  gain 1 valence electron to have a full octet.</em></u>
