The unit used to measure electric current is the ampere (AA). Now, assume that the current delivered at a wall socket reaches th

e value 3.8 AA ten times in a time interval of 0.17 ss. What is the period TTT with which the current at the wall socket changes?

The period T with which the current at the wall socket changes is 0.017 s.

It also ranges from 0.155 s to 0.0189 s since the cycles is not given in the question.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The current reaches 3.8 A once for every cycle. So there must have been 10 cycles (10 periods) in 0.17 s.  

Using 'T' for period:

                                10 T = 0.17  

                                      T = 0.17 / 10  

                                     T  = 0.017 s.

The question doesn't tell about the cycles and so we assume it as 10 cycles. If there are 9 cycles due to the current 3.8 A at the exact beginning and end of 0.17 s. This would make the period T as

                              0.17 / 9 = 0.0189 s approx.

Likewise, if the 3.8 A occurs at the end of the 1st cycle, 11 cycles would have passed during 0.17 s.

In that case the period = 0.17 / 11 = 0.155 s approx.

So T could be in the range from 0.155 s to 0.0189 s.

Answer:

a) F₃₁ = 63.0 μN  

b) F₃₂ = - 14.0 μN

c) q₂ = - 5.0 nC

Explanation:

a)

  • Assuming that the three charges can be taken as point charges, the forces between them must obey Coulomb's Law, and can be found independent each other, applying the superposition principle.
  • So, we can find the force that q₁ exerts along the x-axis on q₃, as follows:

       F_{31} =\frac{k*q_{1}*q_{3} }{r_{13}^{2}} = \frac{9e9Nm2/C2*5.6e-9C*2.0e-9C}{(0.04m)^{2}}  = 63.0 \mu N   (1)

b)

  • Since total force exerted by q₁ and q₂ on q₃ is 49.0 μN, we can find the force exerted only by q₂ (which is along the x-axis only too) just by difference, as follows:

      F_{32} = F_{3} - F_{31}  = 49.0\mu N  - 63.0\mu N = -14.0 \mu N  (2)

c)

  • Finally, in order to find the value of q₂, as we know the value and sign of F₃₂, we can apply again the Coulomb's Law, solving for q₂, as follows:

      q_{2}  = \frac{F_{32} * r_{23}^{2} }{k*q_{3}} = \frac{(-14\mu N)*(0.08m)^{2}}{9e9Nm2/C2* 2 nC} = - 5 nC  (3)

What is the difference between the B-field and the H-field?
Simora [160]
The H field is in units of amps/meter.  It is sometimes called the auxiliary field. It describes the strength (or intensity) of a magnetic field. The B field is the magnetic flux density.  It tells us how dense the field is.  If you think about a magnetic field as a collection of magnetic field lines, the B field tells us how closely they are spaced together. These lines (flux linkages) are measured in a unit called a Weber (Wb).  This is the analog to the electric charge, the Coulomb.  Just like electric flux density (the D field, given by D=εE) is Coulombs/m²,  The B field is given by Wb/m², or Tesla.  The B field is defined to be μH, in a similar way the D field is defined.  Thus B is material dependent.  If you expose a piece of iron (large μ) to an H field, the magnetic moments (atoms) inside will align in the field and amplify it.  This is why we use iron cores in electromagnets and transformers.
So if you need to measure how much flux goes through a loop, you need the flux density times the area of the loop Φ=BA.  The units work out like 
Φ=[Wb/m²][m²]=[Wb], which is really just the amount of flux.  The H field alone can't tell you this because without μ, we don't know the "number of field" lines that were caused in the material (even in vacuum) by that H field.  And the flux cares about the number of lines, not the field intensity.
I'm way into magnetic fields, my PhD research is in this area so I could go on forever.   I have included a picture that also shows M, the magnetization of a material along with H and B.  M is like the polarization vector, P, of dielectric materials. If you need more info let me know but I'll leave you alone for now!
