A straight wire of length 0.62 m carries a conventional current of 0.7 amperes. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field made
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Magnetic field at point having a distance of 2 cm from wire is 6.99 x 10⁻⁶ T

Explanation:

Magnetic field due to finite straight wire at a point perpendicular to the wire is given by the relation :

B=\frac{\mu_{0}I }{2\pi R }\times\frac{L}{\sqrt{L^{2}+R^{2}  } }      ......(1)

Here I is current in the wire, L is the length of the wire, R is the distance of the point from the wire and μ₀ is vacuum permeability constant.

In this problem,

Current, I = 0.7 A

Length of wire, L = 0.62 m

Distance of point from wire, R = 2 cm = 2 x 10⁻² m = 0.02 m

Vacuum permeability, μ₀ = 4π x 10⁻⁷ H/m

Substitute these values in equation (1).

B=\frac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times  0.7 }{2\pi \times0.02 }\times\frac{0.62}{\sqrt{(0.62)^{2}+(0.02) ^{2}  } }

B = 6.99 x 10⁻⁶ T

A man with a mass of 65.0 kg skis down a frictionless hill that is 5.00 m high. At the bottom of the hill the terrain levels out
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The horizontal distance is 4.823 m

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of man, m = 65.0 kg

Height of the hill, H = 5.00 m

Mass of the backpack, m' = 20.0 kg

Height of ledge, h = 2 m

Now,

To calculate the horizontal distance from the edge of the ledge:

Making use of the principle of conservation of energy both at the top and bottom of the hill (frictionless), the total mechanical energy will remain conserved.

Now,

KE_{initial} + PE_{initial} = KE_{final} + PE_{final}

where

KE = Kinetic energy

PE = Potential energy

Initially, the man starts, form rest thus the velocity at start will be zero and hence the initial Kinetic energy will also be zero.

Also, the initial potential energy will be converted into the kinetic energy thus the final potential energy will be zero.

Therefore,

0 + mgH = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} + 0

2gH = v^{2}

v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5} = 9.89\ m/s

where

v = velocity at the hill's bottom

Now,

Making use of the principle of conservation of momentum in order to calculate the velocity after the inclusion, v' of the backpack:

mv = (m + m')v'

65.0\times 9.89 = (65.0 + 20.0)v'

v' = 7.56\ m/s

Now, time taken for the fall:

h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2}{9.8} = 0.638\ s

Now, the horizontal distance is given by:

x = v't = 7.56\times 0.638 = 4.823\ m

Which wave causes the medium to vibrate only in a direction not parallel to the waves motion?
Paha777 [63]

The correct answer to the question is : Transverse wave.

EXPLANATION :

Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand the longitudinal and transverse wave.

LONGITUDINAL WAVE : A longitudinal wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of compression and rarefaction.

For instance, sound wave.

TRANSVERSE WAVE : A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of crests and troughs.

For instance, the wave created in a pond when a stone is dropped into it.

Hence, the correct answer of this question is transverse wave.
