How long would it take for 3.5 C of charge to pass through a cross-sectional area of a wire in which a current of 5 mA passes?

son4ous [18]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>The time taken for the charge to pass through the wire = 700 s or 11.67 minutes or 0.194 hours</em>

Explanation:

Electric Charge: This is defined as the product of electric current to time in a an electric circuit. The S.I unit of charge is Coulombs (C).

Mathematically, it is represented as

Q = it.......................... Equation 1

Where Q =quantity of charge, I = current, t = time

making t the subject of formula in equation 1,

t = Q/I ....................... Equation 2

<em>Given: Q = 3.5 C, I = 5 mA.</em>

<em>Conversion: We convert from mA to A </em>

<em>I.e 5 mA = (5 × 10⁻³) A = 0.005 A.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 2</em>

<em>t = 3.5/0.005</em>

<em>t = 700 seconds  </em>

<em>or</em>

<em>(700/60) minutes = 11.67 minutes</em>

<em>or</em>

<em>(700/3600) hours = 0.194 hours.</em>

<em>Therefore the time taken for the charge to pass through the wire = 700 s or 11.67 minutes or 0.194 hours</em>

Consider a coaxial cable (like the kind that is used to carry a signal to your TV). In this cable, a current I runs in one direc
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

0 < r < r_exterior     B_total = \frac{\mu_o I}{2\pi  r}

r > r_exterior            B_total = 0

Explanation:

The magnetic field created by the wire can be found using Ampere's law

        ∫ B. ds = μ₀ I

bold indicates vectors and the current is inside the selected path

           

outside the inner cable

          B₁ (2π r) = μ₀ I

          B₁ = \frac{\mu_o I}{2\pi  r}

the direction of this field is found by placing the thumb in the direction of the current and the other fingers closed the direction of the magnetic field which is circular in this case.

For the outer shell

for the case   r> r_exterior

         

           B₂ = \frac{\mu_o I}{2\pi  r}

This current is in the opposite direction to the current in wire 1, so the magnetic field has a rotation in the opposite direction

for the case r <r_exterior

in this case all the current is outside the point of interest, consequently not as there is no internal current, the field produced is zero

           B₂ = 0

Now we can find the field created by each part

0 < r < r_exterior

          B_total = B₁

          B_total = \frac{\mu_o I}{2\pi  r}  

r > r_exterior

          B_total = B₁ -B₂

          B_total = 0

If =12a andthe distance from each wire to point p is 0.12m, then what is the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on
vaieri [72.5K]

The magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire is

2×10⁻⁵  N/m

<h3>How can we calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire ?</h3>

To calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire, we are using the formula

F= \frac{\mu_0 I_f}{2\pi d}

Here we are given,

\mu_0= magnetic permeability

= 4\pi×10⁻⁷ H m⁻¹

If= 12 A

d= distance from each wire to point.

=0.12m

Now we put the known values in the above equation, we get

F= \frac{\mu_0 I_f}{2\pi d}

Or, F = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times  12}{2\pi \times 0.12}

Or, F= 2×10⁻⁵ N/m.

From the above calculation, we can conclude that the magnitude of the magnetic force per unit length on the top wire is 2×10⁻⁵ N/m.

How does weak background radiation coming from every direction in the sky support the big bang theory
postnew [5]

Answer:

Option 1

It provides evidence of universe expansion

Explanation:

The Big Bang Theory actually explains the universe as originating from a single point, which expanded as billions of years went by.

The background radiation supports this theory in the sense that if the universe is expanding, this means that the universe is cooling and continuously losing heat, which results in background radiation

What is Otter's average velocity over his entire trip when it takes him 2 minutes to walk 100 meters north and another 1 minute
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

0.50m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is the change in displacement of a body with respect to time.

Velocity = ∆S/∆t

∆S = 100m - 70m

∆S = 30m

∆t = 2min - 1 min

∆t = 1min = 60secs

Substitute the given parameters into the formula for velocity

Velocity = 30m/60s

Velocity = 1/2 m/s

Average Velocity = 0.5m/s
