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

A rescue pilot drops a survival kit while her plane is flying at an altitude of 1.5 km with a forward velocity of 100.0 m/s. If
tresset_1 [31]

1750 meters.  
First, determine how long it takes for the kit to hit the ground. Distance over constant acceleration is: 
d = 1/2 A T^2
 where
 d = distance
 A = acceleration
 T = time 
 Solving for T, gives
 d = 1/2 A T^2
 2d = A T^2
 2d/A = T^2
 sqrt(2d/A) = T 
 Substitute the known values and calculate.
 sqrt(2d/A) = T
 sqrt(2* 1500m / 9.8 m/s^2) = T
 sqrt(3000m / 9.8 m/s^2) = T
 sqrt(306.122449 s^2) = T
 17.49635531 s = T 
 Rounding to 4 significant figures gives 17.50 seconds. Since it will take
17.50 seconds for the kit to hit the ground, the kit needs to be dropped 17.50
seconds before the plane goes overhead. So just simply multiply by the velocity. 
17.50 s * 100 m/s = 1750 m
