Refer to the figure below.
R = resistance.

Case 1:
The voltage source is V₁ and the current is 10 mA. Therefore
V₁ = (10 mA)R

Case 2:
The voltage source is V₂ and the current is 8 mA. Therefore
V₂ = (8 mA)R

Case 3:
The voltage across the resistance is V₁ - V₂. Therefore the current I is given by
V₁ - V₂ = IR
10R - 8R = (I mA)R
2 = I
The current is 2 mA.

Answer: 2 mA

A teacher discusses a scientific theory that has been in place for almost a century. which would present the greatest challenge
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: The theory might have become Obsolete or Superseded

Explanation:

A theory becomes obsolete or superseded if it becomes inadequate, false or incomplete in how its describes reality. It does not matter if it was once accepted. There are some theories such as Lysenkoism that are currently described as being obsolete because it does not conform to current reality. Another example of a theory that was superseded is the phlogiston theory. It was replaced a different theory of energy.

For a magnetic field strength of 2T, estimate the magnitude of the maximum force on a 1-mm-long segment of a single cylindrical
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Incomplete question

This is the complete question

For a magnetic field strength of 2 T, estimate the magnitude of the maximum force on a 1-mm-long segment of a single cylindrical nerve that has a diameter of 1.5 mm. Assume that the entire nerve carries a current due to an applied voltage of 100 mV (that of a typical action potential). The resistivity of the nerve is 0.6ohms meter

Explanation:

Given the magnetic field

B=2T

Lenght of rod is 1mm

L=1/1000=0.001m

Diameter of rod=1.5mm

d=1.5/1000=0.0015m

Radius is given as

r=d/2=0.0015/2

r=0.00075m

Area of the circle is πr²

A=π×0.00075²

A=1.77×10^-6m²

Given that the voltage applied is 100mV

V=0.1V

Given that resistive is 0.6 Ωm

We can calculate the resistance of the cylinder by using

R= ρl/A

R=0.6×0.001/1.77×10^-6

R=339.4Ω

Then the current can be calculated, using ohms law

V=iR

i=V/R

i=0.1/339.4

i=2.95×10^-4 A

i=29.5 mA

The force in a magnetic field of a wire is given as

B=μoI/2πR

Where

μo is a constant and its value is

μo=4π×10^-7 Tm/A

Then,

B=4π×10^-7×2.95×10^-4/(2π×0.00075)

B=8.43×10^-8 T

Then, the force is given as

F=iLB

Since B=2T

F=iL(2B)

F=2.95×10^-4×2×8.34×10^-8

F=4.97×10^-11N

Iteru [2.4K]

Explanation:

Unclear question. The clear rendering reads;

"Into a U-tube containing mercury, pour on the other side sulfuric acid of density 1.84 and on the other side alcohol of density 0.8 so that the levels are in the same horizontal plane. The height of the acid above the mercury being 24 cm. What is the height of the bar and what variation of the level of the acid, when the mercury density is 13.6?

How can u tell matched forces act on objects?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,

then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of

these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be a group of forces (two or more) acting on

an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When

that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed

is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not

possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it
