Answer:
(a) The current should be in opposite direction
(b) The current needed is 39.8 A
Explanation:
Part (a)
Based, on right hand rule, the current should be in opposite direction
Part (b)
given;
strength of magnetic field, B = 370 µT
distance between the two parallel wires, d = 8.6 cm

At the center, the magnetic field strength is twice

R = d/2 = 8.6/2 = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m

Therefore, current needed is 39.8 A
Answer:
The gravitational force between them increases by a factor of 4
Explanation:
Gravitational force is a force of attraction between two objects with masses M and m which are separated by a distance R. It is given mathematically as:
Fg = GMm/R²
Where G = Gravitational constant.
If the distance between their centers, R, decreases by a factor of 2, then it means the new distance between their centers is:
r = R/2
Hence,the gravitational force becomes:
Fg = GMm/r²
Fg = GMm/(R/2)²
Fg = GMm/(R²/4)
Fg = 4GMm/R²
Hence,the gravitational force increases by a factor of 4.
Answer:
The statement "If a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the two objects will repel
" applies to electric charges.
Explanation:
There are only two types of electric charges. Both having own magnitude but different charge.
1. Positive charge
2. Negative charge
Like charges repel each other and opposite charges always attract each other.
When a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the rod and the object will repel.
Answer:
The gravitational force changing velocity is

Explanation:
The expression for the gravitational force is

Differentiate the above equation

The velocity is the distance in at time so



Answer:

Explanation:
- We have to make a hollow sphere of inner radius
and outer radius
.
Then the mass of the material required to make such a sphere would be calculated as:
Total volume of the spherical shell:

And the volume of the hollow space in the sphere:

Therefore the net volume of material required to make the sphere:


- Now let the density of the of the material be
.
<u>Then the mass of the material used is:</u>
