Which is NOT a characteristic of a magnetic field produced by a current?

2 answers:

The answer is (D.) Its speed can be slowed because the magnetic field can be turned on and off, can have its direction reversed and can have its strength changed. However, The speed of a magnetic field that is produced by a current is impossible to be slowed.

Answer: The correct answer is "Its speed can be slowed".

Explanation:

The current carrying conductor produces the magnetic field. The electric current produces the magnetic field.

The motion of the charge produces the electric field and the magnetic field. If the charge is not moving then it will produce electric field only not magnetic field.

The rate of flow of charges constitutes the current. If the current is not flowing in the conductor then, the magnetic field will not produce. If the amount of current flow increases then the strength of the magnetic field increases.

The magnetic field can be produced by following methods from the given options :

It can be turned on and off.

Its direction can be reversed.

Its strength can be changed.

Therefore, the correct option is (d).

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, current generated from lightning range from

10⁴ A < I < 10^5 A

We know that,

The magnetic force is given as

F = iLB

The magnetic field on the earth surface is

B = 10^-5 T

So, let assume the worst case of a 15m flag pole

L = 15m

Then,

F = iLB

F = 10^5 × 10 × 10^-5

F = 15 N

Therefore, 15N is fairly strong so it will come to the material that was use for the material of the flag pole.

Therefore, it is possible that the student is right depending on the material of the flag pole.

A 1.50-mm-diameter glass sphere has a charge of + 1.60 nC. What speed does an electron need to orbit the sphere 1.60 mm above th

saveliy_v [14]

Answer :

Velocity will be $3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec$

Explanation:

We have given glass surface has a diameter of 1.5 mm

And charge q = 1.60 nC

Radius of electrons orbit r = height of electron above surface + radius of sphere = $=1.6+\frac{1.5}{2}=2.35mm = 0.00235m$

Force on electron is given by $F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}$ , here q is charge on sphere and e is charge on electron

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}=\frac{kqe}{r^2}=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.00235^2}=4.172\times 10^{-13}N$

This force work as centripetal force

So $F=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$4.172\times 10^{-13}=\frac{9.11\times 10^{-31}v^2}{0.00235}$

v = $=0.0328\times 10^{-9}=3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec$

How does the ocean influence climate?

Mazyrski [523]

<span>Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.</span>
