A wire of radius R has a current I uniformly distributed across its cross-sectional area. Ampere's law is used with a concentric

circular path of radius r, with r < R, to calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field B.

Answer:

Please refer to the figure.

Explanation:

The crucial point here is to calculate the enclosed current. If the current I is flowing through the whole cross-sectional area of the wire, the current density is

J = \frac{I}{\pi R^2}

The current density is constant for different parts of the wire. This idea is similar to that of the density of a glass of water is equal to the density of a whole bucket of water.

So,

J = \frac{I}{\pi R^2} = \frac{I_{enc}}{\pi r^2}\\I_{enc} = \frac{Ir^2}{R^2}

This enclosed current is now to be used in Ampere’s Law.

\mu_o I_{enc} = \int {B} \, dl

Here, \int \, dl represents the circular path of radius r. So we can replace the integral with the circumference of the path, 2\pi r.

As a result, the magnetic field is

B = \frac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\frac{Ir}{R^2}

A wire 3.22 m long and 7.32 mm in diameter has a resistance of 11.9 mΩ. A potential difference of 33.7 V is applied between the
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

(a) Current is 2831.93 A

(b) 8.40A/m^2

(c) \rho =15.52\times 10^{-9}ohm-m

Explanation:

Length of wire l = 3.22 m

Diameter of wire d = 7.32 mm = 0.00732 m

Cross sectional area of wire

A=\pi r^2=3.14\times 0.00366^2=4.20\times 10^{-5}m^2

Resistance R=11.9mohm=11.9\times 10^{-3}ohm

Potential difference V = 33.7 volt

(A) current is equal to

i=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{33.7}{11.9\times 10^{-3}}=2831.93A

(B) Current density is equal to

J=\frac{i}{A}

J=\frac{2831.93}{4.20\times 10^{-5}}=8.40A/m^2

(c) Resistance is equal to

R=\frac{\rho l}{A}

11.9\times 10^{-3}=\frac{\rho \times 3.22}{4.20\times 10^{-5}}

\rho =15.52\times 10^{-9}ohm-m

What are the comparisons and contrast of adaptation and natural selection? ASAP!!!!!!
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Natural selection is a mechanism, or cause, of evolution.

Explanation:

Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that make an organism better suited to its environment. Heritable variation comes from random mutations.
