Answer:

The lines of force run circles around the wire.

Explanation:

The region around a magnetic material or a moving charge particle is called magnetic field. The direction of magnetic field line is given by right hand thumb rule.

The thumb denotes the direction of electric current, then the curled finger will show the direction of magnetic field.

For a straight wire, the direction of magnetic field lines are circular.

Hence, the correct option is (C).

The answer to this is C. The reason being is because if you were to use a compass then it would be making circular motions towards the middle of the wire.

for any object suspended by any number of ropes, wires, or chains, how is the total amount of tension (tension in each rope adde
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

To calculate the tension on a rope holding 1 object, multiply the mass and gravitational acceleration of the object. If the object is experiencing any other acceleration, multiply that acceleration by the mass and add it to your first total.

Explanation:

The tension in a given strand of string or rope is a result of the forces pulling on the rope from either end. As a reminder, force = mass × acceleration. Assuming the rope is stretched tightly, any change in acceleration or mass in objects the rope is supporting will cause a change in tension in the rope. Don't forget the constant acceleration due to gravity - even if a system is at rest, its components are subject to this force. We can think of a tension in a given rope as T = (m × g) + (m × a), where "g" is the acceleration due to gravity of any objects the rope is supporting and "a" is any other acceleration on any objects the rope is supporting.[2]

For the purposes of most physics problems, we assume ideal strings - in other words, that our rope, cable, etc. is thin, massless, and can't be stretched or broken.

As an example, let's consider a system where a weight hangs from a wooden beam via a single rope (see picture). Neither the weight nor the rope are moving - the entire system is at rest. Because of this, we know that, for the weight to be held in equilibrium, the tension force must equal the force of gravity on the weight. In other words, Tension (Ft) = Force of gravity (Fg) = m × g.

Assuming a 10 kg weight, then, the tension force is 10 kg × 9.8 m/s2 = 98 Newtons.

When air resistance is ignored, _____ of the projectile affect(s) the range and maximum height of the projectile.
FromTheMoon [43]

When air resistance is ignored, initial velocity of the projectile affect the range and maximum height of the projectile.

Projectile is a missile designed to be fired from a rocket or gun.

A projectile is the object that is propelled by the application of an external force and then moves freely under the influence of gravity and air resistance.

The range is defined as the distance between the launch point and the point where the projectile hits the ground.

The height from the ground at the top most position of projectile is referred to as maximum height.

When air resistance is ignored, initial velocity of the projectile affect the range and maximum height of the projectile.

A spring is used as part of a lift system and follows Hooke's law. If the spring is
salantis [7]

Answer:

1.05m or 105cm

Explanation:

Using the hooke's law equation as follows;

F = –k.x

Where;

F = force (N)

x = extension length (m)

k = constant of proportionality (N/m)

According to the information given in this question;

Displacement (x) = 85cm = 85/100 = 0.85m

Force = 12500N

Using F = kx, we find the proportionality constant

k = F/x

K = 12500/0.85

K = 14705.8N/m.

Also, since K = 14705.8N/m, the displacement (x), when the force increases to 15500N is;

F = kx

x = F/k

x = 15500/14705.8

x = 1.05m or 105cm
