2. You and a friend are spending a weekend at a carnival. You get bored and begin to make electrostatics measurements. It turns

out that you have a charge of +3 Coulombs and your friend a charge of -5 Coulombs. What is the net electric charge?A) +2 Coulombs
B) -2 Coulombs
C) +8 Coulombs
D) -8 Coulombs

Answer:

B) -2 Coulombs

Explanation:

In order to find the net charge, we must add the charge that you have with the charge that your friend has, but taking into account the different sign. In fact, we have:

- Charge possessed by you: Q1 = +3 C

- Charge possessed by your friend: Q2 = -5 C

Therefore, the net charge possessed by both persons will be given by

Q = Q1 + Q2 = +3 C + (-5 C) = +3 C - 5 C = -2 C

If the magnitude of the magnetic field is 2.50 mT at a distance of 12.6 cm from a long straight current carrying wire, what is t
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The magnetic field at a distance of 19.8 cm from the wire is 1.591 mT

Explanation:

Given;

first magnetic field at first distance, B₁ = 2.50 mT

first distance, r₁ = 12.6 cm = 0.126 m

Second magnetic field at Second distance, B₂ = ?

Second distance, r₂ = ?

Magnetic field for a straight wire is given as;

B = \frac{\mu I}{2 \pi r}

Where:

μ is permeability

B is magnetic field

I is current flowing in the wire

r distance to the wire

Let \ \frac{\mu I}{2\pi}  \ be \ constant; = K\\\\B = \frac{K}{r} \\\\K = Br\\\\B_1r_1 = B_2r_2\\\\B_2 =\frac{B_1r_1}{r_2} \\\\B_2 = \frac{2.5*10^{-3} *0.126}{0.198} \\\\B_2 = 1.591 *10^{-3}\ T\\\\B_2 = 1.591 \ mT

Therefore, the magnetic field at a distance of 19.8 cm from the wire is 1.591 mT

Two buses are driving along parallel freeways that are 5mi apart, one heading east and the other heading west. Assuming that eac
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

101.54m/h

Explanation:

Given that the buses are 5mi apart, and that they are both driving at the same speed of 55m/h, rate of change of distance can be determined using differentiation as;

Let l be the be the distance further away at which they will meet from the current points;

l=\sqrt{13^2-5^2}=12m\\\\\frac{dl}{dt}=-(55m/h+55m/h})\\\\=-110m/h#The speed toward each other.

\frac{dh}{dt}=0, \ \ \ \ h=constant\\\\h^2+l^2=b^2\\\\2h\frac{dh}{dt}+2l\frac{dl}{dt}=2b\frac{db}{dt}\\\\2\times5\times0+2\times12\times(-110)=2\times13\frac{db}{dt}\\\\\frac{db}{dt}=-101.54m/h

Hence, the rate at which the distance between the buses is changing when they are 13mi apart is 101.54m/h
