Answer:
The force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m
Explanation:
Given;
distance between the two parallel wire, d = 38 cm = 0.38 m
current in the first wire, I₁ = 4.0 kA
current in the second wire, I₂ = 8.0 kA
Force per unit length, between two parallel wires is given as;
where;
μ₀ is constant = 4π x 10⁻⁷ T.m/A
Substitute the given values in the above equation and calculate the force per unit length
Therefore, the force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m

Suppose there are 10,000 civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy. If the civilizations were randomly distributed throughout the disk of the galaxy, about how far (on average) would it be to the nearest civilization?
(Hint: Start by finding the area of the Milky Way's disk, assuming that it is circular and 100,000 light-years in diameter. Then find the average area per civilization, and use the distance across this area to estimate the distance between civilizations.)
Answer:
1000 light-years (ly)
Explanation:
If we go by the hint; The area of the disk can be expressed as:
where D = 100, 000 ly
Let's divide the Area by the number of civilization; if we do that ; we will be able to get 'n' disk that is randomly distributed; so ;
The distance between each disk is further calculated by finding the radius of the density which is shown as follows:
replacing d = in the equation above; we have:
The distance (s) between each civilization =
= 2 (500 ly)
= 1000 light-years (ly)
