Answer:
d) 1.2 mT
Explanation:
Here we want to find the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 2.5 mm from the axis of the coaxial cable.
First of all, we observe that:
- The internal cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm can be treated as a conductive wire placed at the axis of the cable, since here we are analyzing the field outside the radius of the conductor. The current flowing in this conductor is
I = 15 A
- The external conductor, of radius between 3 mm and 3.5 mm, does not contribute to the field at r = 2.5 mm, since 2.5 mm is situated before the inner shell of the conductor (at 3 mm).
Therefore, the net magnetic field is just given by the internal conductor. The magnetic field produced by a wire is given by
where
is the vacuum permeability
I = 15 A is the current in the conductor
r = 2.5 mm = 0.0025 m is the distance from the axis at which we want to calculate the field
Substituting, we find:
Answer:
Pressure, P = 32666.66 Pa
Explanation:
It is given that,
Surface area of foot of Bimaba is 150 cm² or 0.015 m².
Her weight is 50 kg
We need to find the pressure does she exert on the ground, as she stands on her one foot. The force acting per unit area is called pressure. It can be given by :
So, the pressure is 32666.66 Pa.
