Two high-current transmission lines carry currents of 29.0 A and 78.0 A in the same direction and are suspended parallel to each

other 38.0 cm apart.Part A.) If the vertical posts supporting these wires divide the lines into straight 20.0m segments, what magnetic force does each segment exert on the other? (answer in F= ? N)Part B.) Is the force found in part (A) attractive or repulsive?

Answer:

Explanation:

Current in one wire, I = 29 A

current in another wire, I' = 78 A

Distance between them, d = 38 cm = 0.38 m

length of wire, l = 20 m

(a) Force acting on the wires per unit length

F=\frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi }\frac{2II'}{d}

F=10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times 29\times 78}{0.38}

F = 1.19 x 10^-3 N/m

total force on 20 m length

F' = F x 20 = 1.19 x 10^-3 x 20 = 0.0238 N

(b) As the current in both the wires in same direction so the force is attractive in nature .

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

I_1=29 A

I_2=78 A

d=38 cm=\frac{38}{100}=0.38 m

1 m=100 cm

a.Length of segment,l=20 m

Magnetic force ,F=\frac{2\mu_0I_1I_2 l}{4\pi d}

\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}=10^{-7}

Substitute the values

F=\frac{10^{-7}\times 29\times 78\times 20}{0.38}=0.0119 N

Hence, the magnetic force exert by each segment on the other=0.0119 N

b.We know that when current carrying in the wires are in same direction then the force will attract to each other.

Hence, the force will be attractive.

A SUV is towing a trailer and accelerating on a level road. The force that the SUV exerts on the trailer is _____. equal to the
stepladder [879]

Answer:

equal to the force the trailer exerts on the road.

Explanation:

Because of the tension of the rope, the force that the SUV exerts on the trailer is equal and opposite to the force that the trailer exerts on the SUV. This is explained in Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is always an equal and opposite reaction.

Suppose you have two small pith balls that are 5.5 cm apart and have equal charges of -29 nc?
zysi [14]
The question is missing, however, I guess the problem is asking for the value of the force acting between the two balls.

The Coulomb force between the two balls is:
F= k_e \frac{ q_1 q_2}{r^2}
where k_e=8.99\cdot10^9~N m^2 C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant, q_1=q_2=29~nC=29\cdot 10^{-9}~C is the intensity of the two charges, and r=5.5~cm=0.055~m is the distance between them.

Substituting these numbers into the equation, we get
F=2.5~10^{-3}~N

The force is repulsive, because the charges have same sign and so they repel each other.
