Explanation:

The wavelength of green light is about 500 nanometers, or two thousandths of a millimeter. The typical wavelength of a microwave oven is about 12 centimeters, which is larger than a baseball.

Probably for the umbilical cord that connects babies (from their early stages in the womb to their removal) to their mothers. The cord is cut, forming the belly button. This is analogous to astronauts in space.

Two parallel wires carry currents in the same direction. If the currents in the wires are 1A and 4A and the wires are 5 m apart.

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

$1.6\times 10^{-7}$ N

$2.4\times 10^{-7}$ N

Explanation:

$i_{1}$ = 1 A

$i_{2}$ = 4 A

$r$ = distance between the two wire = 5 m

$F$ = Force per unit length acting between the two wires

Force per unit length acting between the two wires is given as

$F = \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi }\frac{2i_{1}i_{2}}{r}$

$F = (10^{-7})\frac{2(1)(4)}{5}$

$F = 1.6\times 10^{-7}$ N

$r'}$ = distance of each wire from the midpoint = 2.5 m

Magnetic field midway between the two wires is given as

$B = \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \left \left ( \frac{2i_{2}}{r'} \right - \frac{2i_{1}}{r'} \right \right ))$

$B = (10^{-7}) \left \left ( \frac{2(4)}{2.5} \right - \frac{2(1)}{2.5} \right \right ))$

$B = 2.4\times 10^{-7}$

A 5.00 g bullet traveling 355 m/s is stopped by lodging in the side of a building. The heat produced is shared between the build

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of bullet $m=5\ gm$

speed of bullet $v=355\ m/s$

bullet is stopped by building and heat produced is shared between building and bullet

Kinetic Energy of bullet is converted into Thermal energy

Kinetic Energy of bullet $K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$K=0.5\times 5\times 10^{-3}\times (355)^2$

$K=315.06\ J$

So 315.06 J of Energy is converted in to thermal energy

While two forces act on it, a particle of mass m=3.2kg is it to move continuously with velocity (3m/s)i - (4m/s)j . one of the f

marta [7]

Mmm tricky.
Since the velocity is constant, I'm going to assume there is no acceleration in any direction. This means there is no net force in the I or J forection!

Since there are 2 forces, both must be equal and opposite in direction to perfectly cancel each other out.

So the opposite of F1 is (-2N)I + (6N)J!

A potter’s wheel moves from rest to an angular speed of 0.40 rev/s in 37.5 s.

svlad2 [7]

The angular acceleration of the potter's wheel is 0.067 rad/s².

The given parameters:

Final angular speed, ωf = 0.4 rev/s
Time of motion, t = 37.5 s

<h3>What is angular acceleration?</h3>

Angular acceleration of an object is the rate of change of angular speed of the object.

The angular acceleration of the potter's wheel is calculated as follows;

$\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega }{t} \\\\\alpha = (0.4\ rev/s \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} ) \times \frac{1}{37.5 \ s} \\\\\alpha = 0.067 \ rad/s^2$

Thus, the angular acceleration of the potter's wheel is 0.067 rad/s².
