A 2cm length of wire centered on the origin carries a 20A current directed in the positive y direction. Determine the magnetic f
skad [1K]

Answer:

The magnetic field at a distance x = 5 m is 1.59 nT

Explanation:

Length of the wire, L = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Current, I = 20 A

x = 5 m

Magnetic field at a distance x = 5 m due to an infinitely long wire is given by:

B = \frac{\mu_{o}IL}{4\pi x\sqrt{x^{2} + L^{2}}}

B = \frac{4\pi\times 10^{- 7}\times 20\times 0.02}{4\pi \times 5\sqrt{5^{2} + 0.02^{2}}} = 1.59\times 10^{- 9}\ T

how does the presence of carbon dioxide in venus’ atmosphere cause the average surface temp on venus to be higher than the avera
soldier1979 [14.2K]
It is because carbon dioxide traps the solar radiation which then warms up the atmosphere, not allowing the radiations to get deflected back in the outer space.. that's what is happening to our own planet the greenhouse effect.. which is also increasing the GLOBAL Temp of our planet too

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

v = 1.2 m/s

Explanation:

The wavelength of the waves is given as the horizontal distance between the crests:

λ = wavelength = 5.5 m

Now, the time period is given as the time taken by boat to move from the highest point again to the highest point. So it will be equal to twice the time taken by the boat to travel from highest to the lowest point:

T = Time Period = 2(2.3 s) = 4.6 s

Now, the speed of the wave is given as:

v = f\lambda

where,

v= speed of wave = ?

f = frequency of wave = \frac{1}{T} = \frac{1}{4.6\ s} = 0.217\ Hz

Therefore,

v = (0.217\ Hz)(5.5\ m)\\

<u>v = 1.2 m/s</u>
