Two long, straight wires are parallel and 16 cm apart. One carries a current of 2.9 A, the other a current of 5.7 A. (a) If the

two currents flow in opposite directions, what is the magnitude (in N/m) and direction of the force per unit length of one wire on the other?

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between two long wires, d = 16 cm = 0.16 m

Current in one wire, $I_1=2.9\ A$

Current in wire 2, $I_2=5.7\ A$

The magnetic force per unit length of one wire on the other is given by the following expression as :

$\dfrac{F}{l}=\dfrac{\mu_o I_1I_2}{2\pi d}$

$\dfrac{F}{l}=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 2.9\times 5.7}{2\pi \times 0.16}$

$\dfrac{F}{l}=2.06\times 10^{-5}\ N/m$

The current is flowing in opposite direction, the magnetic force acting on it is repulsive. Hence, this is the required solution.

Explanation:

Archimedes' principle states that a body immersed in a fluid is subjected to an upwards force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. This is a first condition of equilibrium.

One method of determining the location of the center of gravity of a person is to weigh the person as he/she lies on a board of

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

x = 1.018 m

Explanation:

given,

height of man = 190 cm

= 1.9 m

scale reading on left = 450 N

scale reading on the right = 390 N

Let center of gravity of man be x distance from feet, feet is on right side.

For system to be in equilibrium moment about center should be equal to zero.

∑M = 0

now,

450(1.9 - x ) - 390 × x = 0

450(1.9 - x ) = 390 × x

855 - 450 x = 390 x

840 x = 855

$x = \dfrac{855}{840}$

x = 1.018 m

hence, point of center of gravity from feet is equal to x = 1.018 m

Heat is extracted from a certain quantity of steam at

vodomira [7]

Answer: $v=2452.91 m/s$

Explanation:

Given

initially steam is at $100^{\circ}C$ and converted to $0^{\circ} C$ ice

Let m be the mass of steam

latent heat of fusion and vaporization for water is

$L_f=3.33\times 10^5 J/kg$

$L_v=2.26\times 10^6 J/kg$

Heat required to convert steam in to water at $100^{\circ}C$

$Q_1=m\times L_v=m\cdot 2.26\times 10^6 J$

Heat required to lower water temperature to $0^{\circ}C$

$Q_2=m\times c\times \Delta T$

$Q_2=m\times 4.184\times (100)$

$Q_2=4.184m\times 10^5 J$

Heat required to convert $0^{\circ}C$ water to ice at $0^{\circ}C$ is

$Q_3=m\times L_f$

$Q_3=m\times 3.33\times 10^5=3.33m\times 10^5 J$

$Q=Q_1+Q_2+Q_3$

$Q=(2.26+0.4184+0.33)m\times 10^6 J$

$Q=3.0084m\times 10^6 J$

So this energy is equal to kinetic energy of bullet of mass m moving with velocity v

$Q=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$3.0084m\times 10^6=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$v^2=3.0084\times 2\times 10^6$

$v=2.452\times 10^3 m/s$

$v=2452.91 m/s$

Six moles of an ideal gas are in a cylinder fitted at one end with a movable piston. The initial temperature of the gas is 28.0

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

63.5 °C

Explanation:

The expression for the calculation of work done is shown below as:

$w=P\times \Delta V$

Where, P is the pressure

$\Delta V$ is the change in volume

Also,

Considering the ideal gas equation as:-

$PV=nRT$

where,

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature

R is Gas constant having value = 8.314 J/ K mol

So,

$V=\frac{nRT}{P}$

Also, for change in volume at constant pressure, the above equation can be written as;-

$\Delta V=\frac{nR\times \Delta T}{P}$

So, putting in the expression of the work done, we get that:-

$w=P\times \frac{nR\times \Delta T}{P}=nR\times \Delta T$

Given, initial temperature = 28.0 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T₁ = (28.0 + 273.15) K = 301.15 K

W=1770 J

n = 6 moles

So,

$1770\ J=6 moles\times 8.314\ J/ Kmol \times (T_2-301.15\ K)$

Thus,

$T_2=301.15\ K+\frac{1770}{6\times 8.314}\ K$

$T_2=336.63\ K$

The temperature in Celsius = 336.63-273.15 °C = 63.5 °C

<u>The final temperature is:- 63.5 °C</u>
