Since waves are moving, we define frequency as the number of waves that pass a given point in a specified unit of time. The unit commonly used is Hertz which is the number of wave cycles that pass a point in one second.

How do I solve this step by step? I’m really confused
LekaFEV [45]

Step-#1:

Ignore the wire on the right.

Find the strength and direction of the magnetic field at P,

caused by the wire on the left, 0.04m away, carrying 5.0A

of current upward.

Write it down.


Step #2:

Now, ignore the wire on the left.

Find the strength and direction of the magnetic field at P,

caused by the wire on the right, 0.04m away, carrying 8.0A

of current downward.

Write it down.


Step #3:

Take the two sets of magnitude and direction that you wrote down

and ADD them.


The total magnetic field at P is the SUM of (the field due to the left wire)

PLUS (the field due to the right wire).


So just calculate them separately, then addum up.

Where does matter come from?
Pie
The Big Bang theory is matter and energy in the universe exploded out from one point. As the explosion occurred, energy and matter spread outward and formed the universe. The matter from the Big Bang formed clouds of gas.

Energy that cannot be used to do useful work is referred to as Select one: a. potential energy. b. entropy. c. kinetic energy. d
topjm [15]

In thermodynamics, entropy (symbolized as S) is a physical magnitude for a thermodynamic system in equilibrium. It measures the number of microstates compatible with the equilibrium macrostate, it can also be said that it is the reason for an increase between internal energy versus an increase in system temperature.

The universe tends to distribute energy evenly; that is, to maximize entropy. Intuitively, entropy is a physical quantity that, by calculation, allows us to determine the part of energy per unit of temperature that cannot be used to produce work.

Therefore the correct answer is B.
