The magnetic force on a current-carrying wire is given by:

F = iL×B

F = magnetic force, i = current, L = wire length vector, B = magnetic field

Note we are taking the cross product of the iL and B vectors, not the product of two scalars.

A) Given values:

i = 12A

L = AB = (2, 1, 1)m - (1, 1, 1)m = <1, 0, 0>

B = <-2, 3, 4>10⁻³T

Plug in and solve for F:

F = 12<1, 0, 0>×10⁻³<-2, 3, 4> = 10⁻³(<12, 0, 0>×<-2, 3, 4>)

Beware, we'll use array notation to show the cross product calculation:

F = 10⁻³\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\12&0&0\\-2&3&4\end{array}\right]

F = 10⁻³<(0)(4)-(0)(3), (0)(-2)-(12)(4), (12)(3)-(0)(-2)>

F = 10⁻³<0, -48, 36>N

B) Given values:

i = 12A

L = AB = (3, 5, 6)m - (1, 1, 1)m = <2, 4, 5>

B = <-2, 3, 4>10⁻³T

Plug in and solve for F:

F = 12<2, 4, 5>×10⁻³<-2, 3, 4> = 10⁻³(<24, 48, 60>×<-2, 3, 4>)

F = 10⁻³\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\24&48&60\\-2&3&4\end{array}\right]

F = 10⁻³<(48)(4)-(60)(3), (60)(-2)-(24)(4), (24)(3)-(48)(-2)>

F = 10⁻³<12, -216, 168>N

What is the frequency of light with a wavelength of 7.9 x 10^-9 m? ( the speed of light is 3.00 x 10^8)
nlexa [21]
Using the formula v=f times lambada
then v=the speed of light.
and f=what’s we’re looking for
and lambada=the wavelength.

so then you sub what you have (v and lambada) in the formula.
then multiply the frequency(f) by the given wavelength and then solve for f

Solar system help please!
Kobotan [32]
When one body(sun) exerts a force on a second body(planet), the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction of the first body. Which makes the planet orbit in path C.

Hope this helps!!

Can someone help me?!!!!!
ladessa [460]

Answer:

magnitude: 21.6; direction: 33.7 degrees

Explanation:

When we multiply a vector by a scalar, we have to multiply each component of the vector by the scalar number. In this case, we have

vector: (-3,-2)

Scalar: -6

so the vector multiplied by the scalar will have components

(-3\cdot (-6), -2 \cdot (-6))=(18,12)

The magnitude is given by Pythagorean's theorem:

m=\sqrt{18^2+12^2}=21.6

and the direction is given by the arctan of the ratio between the y-component and the x-component:

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{12}{18})=33.7^{\circ}
