An experiment on the earth's magnetic field is being carried out 1.00 m from an electric cable. What is the maximum allowable cu
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The allowed current in the cable is 1.15 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 1.00 m

Suppose the magnetic field is 2.3\times10^{-5}\ T and  if the experiment is to be accurate to 1.0 %

We need to calculate the current

Using formula of magnetic field

B=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{2\pi r}

I=\dfrac{B\times2\pi r}{\mu_{0}}

Put the value into the formula

I=\dfrac{2.3\times10^{-5}\times2\times\pi\times1.00}{4\pi\times10^{-7}}

I=115\ A

If the experiment is to be accurate to 1.0%

Then,

We need to calculate the allowed current in the cable

I'=(1.0%)\times I

I'=\dfrac{1.0}{100}\times115

I'=1.15\ A

Hence, The allowed current in the cable is 1.15 A.

Plutonium-239 is a radioactive isotope commonly used as fuel in nuclear reactors. The half-life of plutonium-239 is 24,100 year
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

72,300 years.

Explanation:

  • Initial mass of this sample: 504 grams;
  • Current mass of this sample: 63 grams.

What's the ratio between the current and the initial mass of this sample? In other words, what fraction of the initial sample hasn't yet decayed?

\displaystyle \frac{\text{Current Mass}}{\text{Initial Mass}} = \rm \frac{63\; g}{504\; g} = \frac{1}{8}.

The value of this fraction starts at 1 decreases to 1/2 of its initial value after every half-life. How many times shall 1/2 be multiplied to 1 before reaching 1/8? 2^{3} = 8. It takes three half-lives or 3\times 24100 = 72300 years to reach that value.

In certain questions the denominator of the fraction is large. It might not even be an integer power of 2. The base-x logarithm function on calculators could help. Evaluate

\displaystyle \log_{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{8}} = 3 to find the number of half-lives required. In case the base-x logarithm function isn't available, but the natural logarithm function \ln() is, apply the following expression (derived from the base-changing formula) to get the same result:

\displaystyle \frac{\displaystyle\ln{\left(\frac{1}{8}\right)}}{\displaystyle \ln{\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)}}.
