Your boss asks you to design a room that can be as soundproof as possible and provides you with three samples of material. The o

nly information on each sample's label is the material's coefficient of absorption. The coefficient of absorption listed on Sample A is 30%, on Sample B is 47%, and on Sample C is 62%. When your boss asks for your choice and the reasoning behind it, what would you tell him? A. Sample A would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest. B. Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest. C. Sample A would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest. D. Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest.

Two long, straight wires are separated by a distance of 9.15 cm . One wire carries a current of 2.79 A , the other carries a cur
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The force is the same

Explanation:

The force per meter exerted between two wires carrying a current is given by the formula

\frac{F}{L}=\frac{\mu_0 I_1 I_2}{2\pi r}

where

\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability

I_1 is the current in the 1st wire

I_2 is the current in the 2nd wire

r is the separation between the wires

In this problem

I_1=2.79 A\\I_2=4.36 A\\r = 9.15 cm = 0.0915 m

Substituting, we find the force per unit length on the two wires:

\frac{F}{L}=\frac{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7})(2.79)(4.36)}{2\pi (0.0915)}=2.66\cdot 10^{-5}N

However, the formula is the same for the two wires: this means that the force per meter exerted on the two wires is the same.

The same conclusion comes out  from Newton's third law of motion, which states that when an object A exerts a force on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (action-reaction). If we apply the law to this situation, we see that the force exerted by wire 1 on wire 2 is the same as the force exerted by wire 2 on wire 1 (however the direction is opposite).
