A long electric cable is suspended above the earth and carries a current of 345 A parallel to the surface of the earth. The eart

h’s magnetic field has a value of 5.6 × 10−5 T and makes an angle of 88.2 ◦ with respect to the cable. What is the magnitude of the force f exerted on a cable of length 46.9 m due to the earth’s magnetic field? Answer in units of N

Answer:

0.906 N

Explanation:

Formula for magnetic force acting on current carrying cable:

F = IBLsin(\theta)

Where I = 345A is the current in the wire, B = 5.6*10^{-5} T is the magnetic magnitude generated by Earth. L = 46.9 m is the cable length. \theta = 88.2^o is the angle between vector B and cable direction.

F = 345*5.6*10^{-5}*46.9*sin(88.2^o)

F = 0.906 N

Why will a delivery truck filled with birds sitting on its floor be heavier than a truck with the same birds flying around insid
34kurt

The reason why a delivery truck filled with birds sitting on the floor be heavier than a truck with the same birds flying around is because when the birds are sitting on the floor, they are adding their weight to the truck.

Meanwhile, if the birds are flying around they aren't resting on the truck or touching it, so therefore their weight wouldn't be added to the truck.

The mass of the truck will remain the same as you cannot change the mass but the weight will vary depending on the items and objects placed in it.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

The work done by you on the two cart system is 2 N-m

Explanation:

Work done is the product of force and displacement.

W = F * D

Substituting the given values we get -

W =

4 * (0.17+0.33)\\= 2

The work done by you on the two cart system is 2 N-m

Explain how we can deduce the temperature of a star by determining its color.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: Stars are bright and have the ability to emit lights of various wavelength. The color of a star plays a significant role. It helps us in determining its temperature. It ranges from reddish color to a bluish-white color. A red color star indicates that the star is of low temperature, whereas   a bluish-white star indicates that the star is of high temperature.
