Three long, straight electrical cables, running north and south, are tightly enclosed in an insulating sheath. One of the cables

carries a 21.3 A current southward; the other two carry currents of 17.2 A and 10.8 A northward.Use Ampere’s law to calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 10.0 \rm m from the cables.Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer:

1.3 X 10⁻⁷ T or 0.13μT

Explanation:

The magnetic field from the currents directed northward will point in one direction, and the field from the southward directed current will point in the other, so they will subtract.

The net B field is found by

B = μ₀I/2πr + μ₀I/2πr - μ₀I/2πr

B = (4π X 10⁻⁷)(17.2)/(2π)(10) + (4π X 10⁻⁷)(10.8)/(2π)(10) - (4π X 10⁻⁷)(21.3)/(2π)(10)

B = 1.34 X 10⁻⁷ T

which, in two significant figures is 1.3 X 10⁻⁷ T or 0.13μT

A 14-foot boat operating under oars after dark must show what color light to prevent a collision?
Tomtit [17]
<span>A "White" colored light must be shown by a 14-foot boat that is operating under oars after it is dark, in order to prevent a collision.

Boats which are less than 23 feet cannot exceed a maximum speed of 7 knots. They need to exhibit an all-around white light when it is sailing in the dark.

The other practicable sidelights can also be used instead of the white lights, when they are sailing in international waters.

If a man travels from 0m to 5m then back to -3m, all in four seconds, what is the mans displacement?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

-3 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the final position minus the initial position.

Δx = x − x₀

Δx = -3 m − 0 m

Δx = -3 m

A dentist’s drill starts from rest. After 3.20 s of constant angu-lar acceleration, it turns at a rate of 2.51 3 104 re v/m i n.
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

ΔTita = 4205.6 rad

Explanation:

w_{i} means initial angular velocity, which is 0 rev/min

w_{f} means final angular velocity, which is 2.513*10^{4}rev/min

t means time t= 3.20 s

one revolution is equivalent to 2πrad so the final angular velocity is:

w_{f} = (2π/60) *2.513*10^{4} rad/s

w_{f}= 2628.5 rad/s

so the angular acceleration, α will be:

α = 2628.5 rad/s / 3.20 s

a = 821.40 rad/s^{2}

so the rotational motion about a fixed axis is:

w^{2} _{f} =w^{2} _{i} + 2αΔTita    where ΔTita is the angle in radians

so now find the ΔTita the subject of the formula

ΔTita = \frac{w^{2} _{f}-w^{2} _{i}  }{2a}

ΔTita = ((2628.5)^{2} - (0 rev/min)^{2}) / 2* 821.40

ΔTita = 4205.6 rad
