<h2>Speed of jet is 730 miles per hour and speed of wind is 160 miles per hour.</h2>

Explanation:

Let the speed of jet be j and speed of wind be w.

Flying against the wind a jet travels 1710 miles in 3 hours

      Distance = 1710 miles

      Time = 3 hours

      We have

            Distance =  Speed x Time

             1710 = Speed x 3

             j - w = 570 miles per hour ----------------eqn 1

Flying with the wind the same jet travels 6230 miles in 7 hours

      Distance = 6230 miles

      Time = 7 hours

      We have

            Distance =  Speed x Time

             6230 = Speed x 7

             j + w = 890 miles per hour ----------------eqn 2

eqn 1 + eqn 2

            2 j = 1460

              j = 730 mph

Substituting in eqn 2

          730 + w = 890

                w = 160 mph

Speed of jet is 730 miles per hour and speed of wind is 160 miles per hour.

A high power line carries a current of 1.0 kA. What is the strength of the magnetic field this line produces at the ground, 10 m
solmaris [256]

Answer:

The strength of the magnetic field that the line produces is 2x10^{-5} Tesla.

Explanation:

From Biot-Savart law, the equation to determine the strength of the magnetic field for any straight wire can be deduced:

           

B = \frac{\mu_{0}I}{2\pi r} (1)      

                                     

Where \mu_{0} is the permiability constant, I is the current and r is the distance from the wire.    

             

Notice that it is necessary to express the current, I, from kiloampere to ampere.

I = 1.0kA \cdot \frac{1000A}{1kA} ⇒ 1000A

Finally, equation 1 can be used:

B = \frac{(4\pi x10^{-7}T.m/A)(1000A)}{2\pi (10m)}    

           

B = 2x10^{-5}T    

Hence, the strength of the magnetic field that the line produces is 2x10^{-5} Tesla.

In a particular metal, the mobility of the mobile electrons is 0.0033 (m/s)/(N/C). At a particular moment, the electric field ev
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

the average drift speed of the mobile electrons in the metal is 1.089 x 10⁻⁴ m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mobility of the mobile electrons in the metal, μ = 0.0033 (m/s)/(N/C)

the electric field strength inside the cube of the metal, E = 0.033 N/C

The average drift speed of the mobile electrons in the metal is calculated as;

v = μE

v =  0.0033 (m/s)/(N/C) x 0.033 N/C

v = 1.089 x 10⁻⁴ m/s.

Therefore, the average drift speed of the mobile electrons in the metal is 1.089 x 10⁻⁴ m/s.
