A horizontal compass is placed 21 cm due south from a straight vertical wire carrying a 36 a current downward. in what direction
Anit [1.1K]

 <span>
The needle of a compass will always lies along the magnetic field lines of the earth. 
A magnetic declination at a point on the earth’s surface equal to zero implies that 
the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field line at that specific point lies along 
the line of the north-south magnetic poles. </span>

The presence of a current-carrying wire creates an additional <span>
magnetic field that combines with the earth’s magnetic field. Since magnetic 
<span>fields are vector quantities, therefore the magnetic field of the earth and the magnetic field of the vertical wire must be combined vectorially. </span></span>

<span>
Where:</span>

B1 = magnetic field of the earth along the x-axis = 0.45 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T

B2 = magnetic field due to the straight vertical wire along the y-axis

We can calculate for B2 using Amperes Law:

B2 = μ₀ i / [ 2 π R ]

B2 = [ 4π × 10 ⁻ ⁷ T • m / A ] ( 36 A ) / [ 2 π (0.21 m ) ] <span>
B2 = 5.97 × 10 ⁻ ⁵ T = 0.60 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T </span>

The angle can be calculated using tan function:<span>
tan θ = y / x = B₂ / B₁ = 0.60 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T / 0.45 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T <span>
tan θ = 1.326</span></span>

θ = 53°

<span>
<span>The compass needle points along the direction of 53° west of north.</span></span>

A trampoline spring has a force constant k = 800 N/m and is stretched exactly 17.5cm. What is the energy required to do this?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

the energy required for the extension is 12.25 J

Explanation:

Given;

force constant of trampoline spring, k = 800 N/m

extension of trampoline spring, x = 17.5 cm = 0.175 m

The energy required for the extension is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂kx²

E = 0.5 x 800 x 0.175²

E = 12.25 J

Therefore, the energy required for the extension is 12.25 J

In order for an object to accelerate, a forcegravityfrictiona swing must be applied.
vodomira [7]
<span>In order for an object to accelerate, a <u>force</u> must be applied. It follows Newton’s second law of motion where it states that a body at rest remains at rest unless a force is acted upon it. When you move an object, you are exerting a force onto it. By exerting a force on the object, you are actually displacing it from its initial position. You cannot apply force to the object without altering its position. Keep in mind that when you exert work, you are exerting energy too. </span>
