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

Slav-nsk [51]

To solve this problem we will use the mathematical definition of the light years in metric terms, from there, through the kinematic equations of motion we will find the distance traveled as a function of the speed in proportion to the elapsed time. Therefore we have to

1Ly =9.4605284*10^{15}m \rightarrow 'Ly'means  Light Year

Then

14.4Ly = 1.36231609*10^{17} m

If we have that

v= \frac{x}{t} \rightarrow t = \frac{x}{t}

Where,

v = Velocity

x = Displacement

t = Time

We have that

t = \frac{1.36231609*10^{17}}{0.96c} \rightarrow c= Speed of light

t = \frac{1.36231609*10^{17}}{0.96(3*10^8)}

t= 454105363 s (\frac{1hour}{3600s})

t= 126140 hours(\frac{1day}{24hours})

t= 5255.85 days(\frac{1 year}{365days})

t = 14.399 years

Therefore will take 14.399 years

How is reflection of light used in research
mel-nik [20]

In order to read the publications of his peers, or read his own notes of the work
that he did on the previous day, or find his coffee mug on his desk in the lab, the
research scientist must arrange to have each of them illuminated with visible
wavelengths of light, and then he must catch the light reflected from each of them
with his eyes.
