C.

The train first sped up, giving it a positive acceleration in the beginning. This eliminates D since that choice states that it begins with a negative acceleration. This also eliminates B since that choice states that the train only had a negation acceleration.

Next, the train slows down, giving it a negative acceleration. We’re looking for the answer choice that starts with a positive acceleration and ends with a negative one. This makes C the correct answer. Hope this helps!

Two long, parallel wires each carry the same current I, but the two currents are anti-parallel. The two wires are a distance r a
Georgia [21]

Answer:

8 x 10⁻⁷ x  I / r

Explanation:

Two parallel long wires are carrying current I . Let the direction be towards the right in the farthest and towards the left in the nearest. Magnetic field due to current I  at a  distance d is given by the expression

B = μ₀ 2 I / 4π d

I the present case distance d = r/2  

Magnetic field due to one wire at point d = r/2  is

B₁ = μ₀ 2 I / (4π r / 2 )

= 10⁻⁷ x 4I / r

Magnetic field due to the other wire at point d = r/2  is

B₂ = μ₀ 2 I / (4π r / 2 )

= 10⁻⁷ x 4I / r

Direction of magnetic field due to both the wires at the mid  point P will be same . It will be in downward direction in the given scenario

So total magnetic field

B = B₁ + B₂

= 2 x  10⁻⁷ x 4I / r

= 8 x 10⁻⁷ x  I / r

A nonconducting ring with a radius of 11.5 cm is uniformly charged with a total positive charge of 10.0 µC. The ring rotates at
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

B=1.21*10^{-10}T

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic field on the axis of the ring is given by:

B=\frac{\mu_0 IR^2}{2(r^2+R^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}(1)

\mu_0 is the permeability of free space, I is the flowing current  through the ring, R is the ring's radius and r is the distance to the center of the ring.

The flowing current  through the ring is defined as the ring's charge divided into the time taken by the charge to complete one revolution, that is, the period T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}. So, we have:

I=\frac{q}{T}\\I=\frac{q}{\frac{2\pi}{\omega}}\\\\I=\frac{\omega q}{2\pi}\\I=\frac{18\frac{rad}{s}(10*10^{-6}C)}{2\pi}\\I=2.87*10^{-5}A

Now, replacing in (1):

B=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}\frac{T\cdot m}{A})(2.87*10^{-5}A)(0.115m)^2}{2((0.05m)^2+(0.115m)^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\\B=1.21*10^{-10}T

What happens if you reverse the orientation of the permanent magnet? why?
belka [17]
If one reverse the orientation of a permanent magnet ITS MAGNETIZATION WILL BE PERMANENTLY REVERSED. This is because, the magnetic domains inside the permanent magnet aligned with the new applied field and increase with it while those domains that are anti aligned with that field will shrink.

A 1200.0-kg car is traveling at 19m/s. The driver suddenly slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic f
Alja [10]
<h2>Answer</h2>

option D)

2.4 seconds

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Given in the question,

mass of car = 1200kg

speed of car = 19m/s

Force due to direction of travel

F = ma

  = 12000(a)

Force to due frictional force in reverse direction

-F = mg(friction coefficient)

   = -12000(9.81)(0.8)

<h2>-mg(friction coefficient) = ma  </h2>

(cancelling mass from both side of equation)

g(0.8) = a

(9.81)(0.8) = a

a = 7.848 m/s²

<h2>Use Newton Law of motion</h2><h3>vf - vo = a • t</h3>

where vf = final velocity

          vo = initial velocity

          a = acceleration

           t = time

0 - 19 = 7.8(t)

t = 19/7.8

  = 2.436 s

  ≈ 2.4s
