Answer:

1.6\times 10^{-7} N

2.4\times 10^{-7} N

Explanation:

i_{1} = 1 A

i_{2} = 4 A

r = distance between the two wire = 5 m

F = Force per unit length acting between the two wires

Force per unit length acting between the two wires is given as

F = \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi }\frac{2i_{1}i_{2}}{r}

F = (10^{-7})\frac{2(1)(4)}{5}

F = 1.6\times 10^{-7} N

r'} = distance of each wire from the midpoint = 2.5 m

Magnetic field midway between the two wires is given as

B = \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \left \left ( \frac{2i_{2}}{r'} \right - \frac{2i_{1}}{r'} \right \right ))

B = (10^{-7}) \left \left ( \frac{2(4)}{2.5} \right - \frac{2(1)}{2.5} \right \right ))

B = 2.4\times 10^{-7}

Which statement is correct about the car?
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

OOf we are doing this stuff atm

So if its faster at the front and slow at the back you can tell that its not slowing down because less of a force is there however at the front there is more of a force. Friction is low which means that its not makimg much contact so no sudden change of forces thats also why its B
