Answer:

The force is the same

Explanation:

The force per meter exerted between two wires carrying a current is given by the formula

\frac{F}{L}=\frac{\mu_0 I_1 I_2}{2\pi r}

where

\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability

I_1 is the current in the 1st wire

I_2 is the current in the 2nd wire

r is the separation between the wires

In this problem

I_1=2.79 A\\I_2=4.36 A\\r = 9.15 cm = 0.0915 m

Substituting, we find the force per unit length on the two wires:

\frac{F}{L}=\frac{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7})(2.79)(4.36)}{2\pi (0.0915)}=2.66\cdot 10^{-5}N

However, the formula is the same for the two wires: this means that the force per meter exerted on the two wires is the same.

The same conclusion comes out  from Newton's third law of motion, which states that when an object A exerts a force on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (action-reaction). If we apply the law to this situation, we see that the force exerted by wire 1 on wire 2 is the same as the force exerted by wire 2 on wire 1 (however the direction is opposite).

What are the main factors that influence the climate of any location on earth?
icang [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The climate of any particular place is influenced by a host of interacting factors.

The factor that influence climate are

1. latitude

2. elevation,

3. nearby water

4. ocean currents

5. topography

6. vegetation

7. prevailing winds.

The primary cause of climate change is the burning of fossil fuels, such as oil and coal, which emits greenhouse gases into the atmosphere—primarily carbon dioxide. Other human activities, such as agriculture and deforestation, also contribute to the proliferation of greenhouse gases that cause climate change.

During a neighborhood baseball game in a vacant lot, a particularly wild hit sends a 0.146 kg baseball crashing through the pane
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Impulse, |J| = 0.6716 kg-m/s

Force, F = 63.35 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.146 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 15.3 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = 10.7 m/s

To find,

(a) The magnitude of this impulse.

(b) The magnitude of the average force of the glass on the ball.

Solution,

(a) Impulse of an object is equal to the change in its momentum. It is given by :

J=m(v-u)

J=0.146\ kg(10.7-15.3)\ m/s

J = -0.6716 kg-m/s

or

|J| = 0.6716 kg-m/s

(b) Another definition of impulse is given by the product of force and time of contact.

t = 0.0106 s

J=F\times \Delta t

F=\dfrac{J}{\Delta t}

F=\dfrac{0.6716\ kg-m/s}{0.0106\ s}

F = 63.35 N

Hence, this is the required solution.
