Two wires carrying equal currents exert a force ???????? on each other. (a) The current in each wire is doubled, while the dista
sweet-ann [11.9K]

a) The magnetic field created by a current-carrying wire is proportional to the current:

B ∝ I, B = magnetic field strength, I = current

The magnetic force acting on a current-carrying wire immersed in a magnetic field is proportional to the current and the magnetic field strength:

F ∝ IB, F = magnetic force, I = current, B = magnetic field strength

Let's focus on wire 1.

Since wire 2's current is doubled, wire 2 produces a magnetic field twice as strong as before.

Wire 1's current is also doubled, therefore we now have a wire having <em>twice as strong a current</em> immersed in <em>twice as strong a magnetic field</em>. The magnetic force on wire 1 (and you can make a similar argument for wire 2) will be four times as strong as before.

b) The general formula for the magnetic force acting on a current-carrying wire immersed in a magnetic field is given by:

F = IL×B

F = magnetic force vector

I = current

L = vector having a magnitude equal to wire length and representing direction of current

B = magnetic field vector

Note we are taking a cross product of the IL and B vectors, not the product of two scalar quantities.

The very nature of the cross product means that if L and B are parallel to each other, F = 0N

the skid marks left by the decelerating jet-powered car the spirit of america were 9600 m long before it came to a stop at 198 m
N76 [4]

Answer:

97 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 9600 m

v₀ = 198 m/s

v = 0 m/s

Find: t

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

9600 m = ½ (0 m/s + 198 m/s) t

t = 97 s

007 (part 1 of 2) 1.0 points
levacccp [35]

Answer:

a) The angle of refraction is approximately 34.7

b) The angle the light have to be incident to give an angle of refraction of 90° is approximately 53.42°

Explanation:

According to Snell's law, we have;

\dfrac{n_1}{n_2} = \dfrac{sin (\theta_2)}{sin (\theta_1)}

The refractive index of the glass, n₁ = 1.66

The angle of incident of the light as it moves into water, θ₁ = 27.2°

a) The refractive index of water, n₂ = 1.333

Let θ₂ represent the angle of refraction of the light in water

By plugging in the values of the variables in Snell's Law equation gives;

\dfrac{1.66}{1.333} = \dfrac{sin (\theta_2)}{sin (27.2^{\circ})}

sin (\theta_2) = sin (27.2^{\circ}) \times \dfrac{1.66}{1.333} \approx 0.5692292265

θ₂ = arcsin(0.5692292265) ≈ 34.7°

The angle of refraction of the light in water, θ₂ ≈ 34.7°

b) When the angle of refraction, θ₂ = 90°, we have;

\dfrac{1.66}{1.333} = \dfrac{sin (90^{\circ})}{sin (\theta_1)}

sin (\theta_1) = \dfrac{sin (90^{\circ})}{\left( \dfrac{1.66}{1.333}\right)} = sin (90^{\circ}) \times \dfrac{1.333}{1.66} \approx 0.803

θ₁ ≈ arcsin(0.803) ≈ 53.42°

The angle of incident, θ₁, that would give an angle of refraction of 90° is θ₁ ≈ 53.42°

Establishing a potential difference The deflection plates in an oscilloscope are 10 cm by 2 cm with a gap distance of 1 mm. A 10
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

t = 23.9nS

Explanation:

given :

Area A= 10 cm by 2 cm => 2 x 10^-2m x 10 x 10^-2m

distance d= 1mm=> 0.001

resistor R= 975 ohm

Capacitance can be calculated through the following formula,

C = (ε0  x A )/d

C = (8.85 x 10^-12 x (2 x 10^-2 x 10 x 10^-2))/0.001

C = 17.7 x 10^-12    (pico 'p' = 10^-12)

C = 17.7pF

the voltage between two plates is related to time, There we use the following formula of the final voltage

Vc = Vx (1-e^-(t/CR))  

75 = 100 x (1-e^-(t/CR))

75/100 = (1-e^-(t/CR))

.75 = (1-e^-(t/CR))

.75 -1 = -e^-(t/CR)

-0.25 = -e^-(t/CR)  --->(cancelling out the negative sign)

e^-(t/CR) = 0.25

in order to remove the exponent, take logs on both sides  

-t/CR = ln (0.25)

t/CR = -ln(0.25)

t = -CR x ln (0.25)

t = -(17.7 x 10^-12 x 975) x (-1.38629)

t = 23.9 x 10^{-9  

t = 23.9ns

Thus, it took 23.9ns  for the potential difference between the deflection plates to reach 75 volts
