A plane is traveling with an air velocity of 720 kilometers/hour due east. It experiences a headwind of 16 kilometers/hour. Find
balandron [24]
If it is a headwind it means it's travelling against the motion of the plane. This means it's velocity is simply v=720-16=704 km/h due east.

Two power lines run parallel for a distance of 222 m and are separated by a distance of 40.0 cm. if the current in each of the t
earnstyle [38]
1) Magnitude of the force:

The magnetic field generated by a current-carrying wire is
B= \frac{\mu_0I}{2 \pi r}
where
\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability
I is the current in the wire
r is the distance at which the field is calculated

Using I=135 A, the current flowing in each wire, we can calculate the magnetic field generated by each wire at distance 
r=40.0 cm=0.40 m, 
which is the distance at which the other wire is located:
B= \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}= \frac{(4 \pi \cdot 10^{-7} N/A^2)(135 A) }{2 \pi (0.40 m)}=6.75 \cdot 10^{-5} T

Then we can calculate the magnitude of the force exerted on each wire by this magnetic field, which is given by:
F=ILB=(135 A)(222 m)(6.75 \cdot 10^{-5}T)=2.03 N

2) direction of the force: 
The two currents run in opposite direction: this means that the force between them is repulsive. This can be determined by using the right hand rule. Let's apply it to one of the two wires, assuming they are in the horizontal plane, and assuming that the current in the wire on the right is directed northwards:
- the magnetic field produced by the wire on the left at the location of the wire on the right is directed upward (the thumb of the right hand is directed as the current, due south, and the other fingers give the direction of the magnetic field, upward)

Now let's apply the right-hand rule to the wire on the right:
- index finger: current --> northward
- middle finger: magnetic field --> upward
- thumb: force --> due east --> so the force is repulsive

A similar procedure can be used on the wire on the left, finding that the force exerted on it is directed westwards, so the force between the two wires is repulsive.

When the voltage across a steady resistance is doubled, the current?
natima [27]

I'm actually going ahead in the book (DC Circuits) so this isn't really homework but I figured the tag was appropriate....the name of the chapter is Ohm's Law and Watt's Law.

<span>Problem: Calculate the power dissipated in the load resistor, R, for each of the circuits.Circuit (a): V = 10V; I = 100mA; R = ?; Since I know V and I use formula P = IV: P = IV = (100mA)(10V) = 1 W.</span>

The next question is what I'm not sure about:

Question: What is the power in the circuit (a) above if the voltage is doubled? (Hint: Consider the effect on current).

What I did initially was: P = IV = (100mA)(2V) = 2 W

But then I looked at the answer and it said 4 W, then I looked at the Hint again. Then I remembered in the book early on it said "If the voltage increases across a resistor, current will increase."

So question is: When solving problems I have to increase (or decrease) current (I) every time voltage (V) is increased (decreased) in a problem, right? How about the other way around, when increasing current (I), you need to increase voltage (V). I'm pretty sure that's how they got 4 W, but want to make sure before I head to the next section of the book.

P = IV = (200mA)(2V) = 4 W
