Two rigid rods are oriented parallel to each other and to the ground. The rods carry the same current in the same direction. The

length of each rod is 0.85 m, and the mass of each is 0.073 kg. One rod is held in place above the ground, while the other floats beneath it at a distance of 8.2 × 10−3 m. Determine the current in the rods.

Answer:

The current in the rods is 171.26 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of rod = 0.85 m

Mass of rod = 0.073 kg

Distance d = 8.2\times10^{-3}\ m

The rods carry the same current in the same direction.

We need to calculate the current

I is the current  through each of the wires then the force per unit length on each of them is

Using formula of force

\dfrac{F}{L}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I^2}{2\pi d}

\dfrac{mg}{L}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I^2}{2\pi d}

Where, m = mass of rod

l = length of rod

Put the value into the formula

I^2=\dfrac{mgd}{\mu L}

I^2=\dfrac{0.073\times9.8\times8.2\times10^{-3}}{2\times10^{-7}}

I=\sqrt{29331.4}

I=171.26\ A

Hence, The current in the rods is 171.26 A.

Which of the following choices defines energy in scientific terms?
snow_tiger [21]
1) B. Energy is the ability to do work

2) C. Energy is conserved, it just goes from one form to another.

3) Work = Force x displacement
= 300 x 100 = 30,000 Joules

4) leaning a brick because no displacement is taking place.

5) They change the amount/strength or direction of the force needed.

6) Less force is needed and applied over a longer distance.

7) Heat is the flow of thermal energy from one object to another.

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

A. The applied force should be the same size as the friction force

Explanation:

Whenever we apply a force to an object it moves if the force applied to that object is unbalanced and there is no force or a lesser force to counter it. According to Newton's Second Law of motion, when an unbalanced force is applied to an object it produces an acceleration in the object in its own direction. So, the two forces acting on this box are the frictional force and the applied force in horizontal direction. In order to move the box at constant speed, the applied force must first, overcome the frictional force, so the object can start its motion. Since, the motion has constant velocity, it means no acceleration. So, the force must be balanced in order to avoid acceleration as a consequence of Newton's Second Law of motion. Therefore, the correction in this case will be:

If the volume of a sample of gas is reduced at constant temperature, the average velocity of the molecules _______, the average
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the volume of a sample of gas is reduced at constant temperature, the average velocity of the molecules increases, the average force of an individual collision increases, and the average number of collisions with the wall, per unit area, per second increases.

As volume is reduced, the gas molecules come closer together, which increases the number of collisions between them and their collisions with the container walls. Also, since the distance traveled by each molecule between successive collision decreases, the molecule velocity doesn't decrease much within collisions as a result of which, the average velocity is higher compared to when the gas is stored in a larger volume. Finally, due to constant collisions, the direction of molecule travel changes rapidly owing to which the acceleration of molecules increases.
