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

A hot-air balloon is accelerating upward under the influence of two forces, its weight and the buoyant force. for simplicity, co
Elenna [48]
Let V = the volume of the balloon
Force of gravity = V * ?hot * g downward
Buoyant force = V * ?cool * g upward
Net upward force F = V * ?cool * g - V * ?hot * g

F = V g (?cool - ?hot)

Mass of the balloon m = V ?hot

a = F/m = V g (?cool - ?hot)/(V ?hot)

a = g(?cool/?hot - 1)

a = 9.8(1.29/0.93 - 1)

a = 3.79 m/s^2

<span>Answer is 3.79 m/s^2</span>

An astronaut is doing repairs on the international Space Station. She throws a hammer into space with a velocity of 3m/s. How mu
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The force is 15N

Explanation:

The formula is Force= mass × velocity.

From the question mass is 5kg, velocity is 3m/s.

F= 5×3

F= 15Newton.

Therefore the force is 15N.

A 35 g steel ball is held by a ceiling-mounted electromagnet 4.0 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor, 4
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

7.9 m/s

Explanation:

When both balls collide, they have spent the same time for their motions.

Motion of steel ball

This is purely under gravity. It is vertical.

Initial velocity, <em>u </em>= 0 m/s

Distance, <em>s</em> = 4.0 m - 1.2 m = 2.8 m

Acceleration, <em>a</em> = g

Using the equation of motion

s = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

2.8 \text{ m} = 0+\dfrac{gt^2}{2}

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{5.6}{g}}

Motion of plastic ball

This has two components: a vertical and a horizontal.

The vertical motion is under gravity.

Considering the vertical motion,

Initial velocity, <em>u </em>= ?

Distance, <em>s</em> = 1.2 m

Acceleration, <em>a</em> = -<em>g                   </em> (It is going up)

Using the equation of motion

s = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

1.2\text{ m} = ut-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Substituting the value of <em>t</em> from the previous equation,

1.2\text{ m} = u\sqrt{\dfrac{5.6}{g}}-\dfrac{1}{2}\times g\times\dfrac{5.6}{g}

u\sqrt{\dfrac{5.6}{g}} = 4.0

Taking <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s²,

u = \dfrac{4.0}{0.756} = 5.29 \text{ m/s}

This is the vertical component of the initial velocity

Considering the horizontal motion which is not accelerated,

horizontal component of the initial velocity is horizontal distance ÷ time.

u_h = \dfrac{4.4\text{ m}}{0.756\text{ s}} = 5.82\text{ m/s}

The initial velocity is

v_i = \sqrt{u^2+u_h^2} = \sqrt{(5.29\text{ m/s})^2+(5.82\text{ m/s})^2} = 7.9 \text{ m/s}

aliina [53]

Answer:

Technique to reduce Noise, magnetic attraction and Twitching sensation

Explanation:

Changing magnetic fields cause loud knocking noise this can be overcome by ear protection.

Strong and Static magnetic fields attract magnetic objects that can be avoided by screening of people and objects before entering in that area.

Twitching Sensation due to nerve stimulation can be avoided by reducing the exposure to magnetic field.

Please mark branliest if you are satisfied with the answer. Thanking you in anticipation.

Which practice will help prevent data loss in case of a computer malfunction?
Gnoma [55]
You should back-up your computer every few weeks (or as often as needed).

As soon as you suspect that your computer (or any other backup-able device) is too slow or "glitch-y" you should back-up your device before you lose any important files or data.

PREVENTING MALFUNCTION:
→ Always set your computer on a hard & flat surface.
→ Avoid downloading programs from unknown or non-trusted sources.
→ Avoid using your computer in a hot area.
→ Consider installing a virus/malware protection software on your computer.
