A coaxial cable consists of a solid inner cylindrical conductor of radius 2 mm and an outer cylindrical shell of inner radius 3

mm and outer radius 3.5 mm. A current of 15 A flows down the inner wire and an equal return current flows in the outer conductor. If we assume that the currents are uniform over the cross section of the conductors, then calculate the magnitude of the magnitude at a radius of 2.5 mm.
a. 2.4 mT
b. 2.1 uT
c. 3.2 uT
d. 1.2 mT
e. 0.

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

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

where

\mu_0 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:

B=\frac{(4\pi\cdot 10^{-7})(15)}{2\pi(0.0025)}=1.2\cdot 10^{-3}T = 1.2 mT

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

d=\frac{1.22\times 640\times 10^{-9}\times 21.7}{7.35\times 10^{-2}}=2305.21\times 10^{-7}m

Explanation:

The expression which represent the first diffraction minima by a circular aperture is given by d sin\Theta =1.22\lambda--------eqn 1

The angle through which the first minima is diffracted is given by tan\Theta =\frac{y_1}{D}---------eqn 2

As \Theta is very small so we can write sin\Theta =tan\Theta

So from eqn 1 and eqn 2 we can write

y_1=\frac{1.22\lambda D}{d}--------eqn 3

Here y_1 is the position of first maxima D is the distance of screen from the circular aperture d is the diameter of aperture

It is given that diameter of circular aperture is 14.7 cm so y_1=\frac{14.7}{2}=7.35 \ cm

Now putting all these value in eqn 3

d=\frac{1.22\lambda D}{y_1}

d=\frac{1.22\times 640\times 10^{-9}\times 21.7}{7.35\times 10^{-2}}=2305.21\times 10^{-7}m

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

33.33 m/s

Explanation:

m = 450 kg. T = 5000 N, t = 3 seconds,

let the net acceleration is a.

T = m a

a = 5000 / 450 = 11.11 m/s^2

u = 0 , v = ?

Let v be the velocity after 3 seconds.

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

v = 0 + 11.11 x 3 = 33.33 m/s

A lion has a mass of 45 kg. Answer the following questions about it, using correct units. a. The lion runs at a speed of 14.2 m/
Eva8 [605]
A) The kinetic energy of an object is given by:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the mass of the object, and v its speed. For the lion in our problem, m=45 kg and v=14.2 m/s, so its kinetic energy is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(45 kg)(14.2 m/s)^2=4537 J

b) the increase in gravitational potential energy of the lion is given by:
\Delta U = mg \Delta h
where g is the gravitational acceleration, and \Delta h is the increase in altitude of the lion. In this problem, \Delta h=28 m, so the increase in gravitational potential energy is
\Delta U=mg \Delta h=(45 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(28 m)=12361 J

c) When the fox reaches the top of the tree, its gravitational potential energy is
U=mgh=(1.8 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(3.8 m)=67 J
As it jumps, its kinetic energy is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(1.8 kg)(8.1 m/s)^2=59 J
So the total mechanical energy of the fox as it jumps is
E=U+K=67 J + 59 J =126 J
