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.

What does it mean to have an acceleration of -10 m/s^2 when the velocity is 80 m/s?

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

1,3

Explanation:

As the acceleration is -10m/s^2 , that means deceleration is occurring. That means, the object is slowing down.

v=u-at

or, 0=80-10t

or, t=8 seconds

So, the object will stop in 8 seconds.

So, the correct answers are 1 and 3.

Hope, this helps you.

A wave amplitude 0.36m interferes with a second wave of amplitude 0.22m traveling in the same direction. What is the largest res

DerKrebs [107]

The largest resultant amplitude would be that created by constructive interference, basically when the two waves are of the same phase, so it would be 0.36m+0.22m= 0.58 m.

At what displacement of a sho is the energy half kinetic and half potential? what fraction of the total energy of a sho is kinet

expeople1 [14]

As we know that KE and PE is same at a given position

so we will have as a function of position given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2(A^2 - x^2)$

also the PE is given as function of position as

$PE = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2x^2$

now it is given that

KE = PE

now we will have

$\frac{1}{2}m\omega^2(A^2 - x^2) = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2x^2$

$A^2 - x^2 = x^2$

$2x^2 = A^2$

$x = \frac{A}{\sqrt2}$

so the position is 0.707 times of amplitude when KE and PE will be same

Part b)

KE of SHO at x = A/3

we can use the formula

$KE = \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2(A^2 - x^2)$

now to find the fraction of kinetic energy

$f = \frac{KE}{TE} = \frac{A^2 - x^2}{A^2}$

$f = \frac{A^2 - (\frac{A}{3})^2}{A^2}$

$f_k = \frac{8}{9}$

now since total energy is sum of KE and PE

so fraction of PE at the same position will be

$f_{PE} = 1 - f_k$

$f_{PE} = 1 - (8/9) = 1/9$

A 2.00 kg box slides on a rough, horizontal surface, hits a spring with a speed of 1.90 m/s and compresses it a distance of 10.0

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of box $m=2\ kg$

speed of box $v=1.9\ m/s$

distance moved by the box $x=10\ cm$

coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu _k=0.66$

Friction force $f_r=\mu_kN$

$f_r=0.66\times mg$

$f_r=0.66\times 2\times 9.8=12.936 \N$

Kinetic Energy of box will be utilize to overcome friction and rest is stored in spring in the form of elastic potential energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=f_r\cdot x+\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 1.9^2=12.936\times 0.1+\frac{1}{2}\times k\times (0.1)^2$

$3.61-1.2936=0.005\times k$

$k=463.28\ N/m$
